As of September 2, Panel Picker voting is closed. You can, however, still leave comments on the proposals you find interesting. We will announce the first set of accepted panels on Thursday, October 2. Stay tuned to the SXSW Interactive Festival website for these announcements, or e-mail us if you have questions.
As designers, it's in our nature to agonise over the details -- perhaps even to an obsessive degree. But this level of perfectionism should be celebrated and embraced, especially when it comes to applying that ethos to our markup. Care about semantics! Care about code indentation! Care about class names! Only through perfectionism can we convert the non-believers who are content to mark up sites like MySpace.
