What's the panel going to talk about?
Marketing guru Seth Godin has blogged that the 'Online Community Organizer' would be the number one job of the future:
"Somebody to create and maintain a virtual world in which all the players in an industry feel like they need to be part of it . . . Like being the head of a big trade association, but without the bureaucracy and tedium . . .
If you were great at this, I'd imagine you'd never ever have trouble finding good work."
