I'll be in the front row.

Thanks Justin!

Please note...as well as answering all the thoughtful questions listed above I will also engage conversations from Sarah Prevette on the topic and some of the best community managers working today. This will be one of the most talked about panels at the festival because it will be chalked full of insight, experience and good old fashioned surprises.

Saul, I'd also like to see you address the use of the term, "community." It gets thrown around a lot without much explanation. Also, push the Sarah Prevette angle, that will draw some folks in. :)

Thanks Jay.

Am excited to join Saul for this discussion - lots of interesting facets to engaging community and intriguing ideas coming forward on how the role needs to evolve to better support brands and business. We've been having some incredible conversation on the subject with people all over North America and look forward to ongoing dialogue pre-SXSW and having a fusion of insights at the event.

Looking forward to this panel - especially since I'm a Community Manager. Saul, o wise one, share the ways of the future with me!

Saul is entertaining & engaging...he is one of the foremost impresarios on the internet today. Smart, funny, you'll love his ideas & his style.

This sounds great!

Community Managers are imperative for start-ups, but many "legacy" organizations are behind in understanding the value of the position. Journalism is one area where Community Mangers will flourish. Looking forward to this panel and quesadillas at Rio Grande. Will Saul be demonstrating make-out techniques?

Sounds great! @zoocasa is blessed to have you!

You can never have too much Saul

So looking forward to this..
