Things are already gearing up for SXSW 2010. We've submitted four panel ideas to SXSW and made it through to the Panel Picking round. Now it's up to a public vote to help determine if these topics make it or not.

Take a look at the conversations we'd like to have at SXSW 2010, then please toss a vote over to these panel proposals:

The Internet Never Sleeps: Managing Social Media Campaigns
The Internet never sleeps, so why should you? When they work, social media campaigns become unruly beasts that require constant feeding and project wrangling. How can we support these projects while meeting budgets and surpassing expectations (without breaking our inboxes or going insane)?

Hidden Stories, Revealing Maps
Stories connect us. To places and to each other. Mapped stories reveal new layers on the world and create a shared filter through which we can experience. Shared in relation to each other, these become magical maps, which reveal both hidden riches and invisible inequities that pervade our world.

Service 2.0: Evaluating Next-Gen Volunteer Opportunity Platforms
Forget about the high school community service club. The next generation of volunteering platforms is here -- from Google's All for Good to the President's Serve.gov. But can they also combat apathy? We'll speak with experts about recent efforts to revolutionize the service space and see what gaps remain.

Web-Thinking: Converting Your Organization From Dinosaur To Ninja
Core values of the web—like openness, participation—are often at odds with traditional organizational structures. Given technology's cross-departmental influence, those working with organizations on social media or online strategy are often forced to play the role of "change agent." How can you transform an org while doing your job?

And here are two related panel topics that we collaborated on, from our friend Ted Fickes (The Wilderness Society) and Marianne Manilov (Engage Network) -- vote for these too!

Evolution, Creation and Extinction (of the organization)
Organizations, political campaigns, newspapers. While they're scrambling to figure out "new media" alternate entities spring up around them that exist only online. Is one better than the other? Are older groups evolving quickly enough? Is it better to start from scratch? Will new "online" groups drive their predecessors to extinction?

Small Circle Organizing: From Online to Real-World Action
What do evangelical minister Rick Warren, the Obama campaign, the Climate Movement, Green Jobs, yoga, and rock bands have in common? Small circle organizing. Build trust, deepen relationships and have more people take action for change. Exploring real-world strategies to shift from building a following to building a movement.
