The Power of Community at ETech

There's, no doubt, a plethora of knowledge-sharing at this week's ETech Conference, with a solid line-up of sessions to spark creative thinking and introduce new ideas for building successful technologies. If you're lucky enough to attend this year's event, we encourage you to attend a session led by Yahoo!'s Joshua Schachter who is sharing lessons learned in scaling and building social systems. Here are the details:

Track: Products & Services
Date: Thursday, March 29
Time: 11:00am - 11:45am
Location: Gallery

If you've never heard Joshua speak before, you are in for a treat. Basically, Joshua took his hobby to a whole new level when he launched del.icio.us in 2003 (and undoubtedly learned a few lessons along the way). He'll share some of those lessons and detail how to build, develop and scale social Web applications. With a strong focus on community, Joshua will talk about the power technology has in enabling the organization, recollection and sharing of information found on the Web.

Swing by and tell Joshua we sent you!

Was del.icio.us the first ever Web 2.0-type, social bookmarking service?

It would really be interesting to find out how he came up with the idea for that domain name.
