This short post begs the question of why do they accept and reject session proposals for an online conference? Good question. Sure, they need to invite a few keynotes or featured presentations or the like, but after that why not allow anyone with something to say the cyberspace to say it in. Seems to me that they could easily use a Digg-like rating system to direct people to the most popular contributions while allowing everyone to be a contributor. "This is one of the great things about being online where anyone can have a space and a voice." Yes, as long as we allow it and enable it. -BD
