Wasn't there a nice session grid on the site last year? Showed all the sessions going on at any given time? That was very helpful in coordinating session attendance among our team, and we can't find anything like it this year.

Is anyone working on a schedule builder/"My Sessions" feature that's actually usable? At present, the sessions are presented in random order. There's apparently no way to sort them by date & time - an essential feature for building "my schedule".

@Michael: We reviewed the "My Sessions" feature this past Thursday, and we suggested a few changes. We'll review it again this Thursday, and if all goes well, it should take a few days to get it fully deployed to the production servers.

Regarding the schedule, that doesn't usually happen until a few weeks prior to the event. I wish we could do it earlier, but there are many logistical issues to address.

Hi Mike,

It has been a few weeks since this post and there is still no option on the registration site to select favorite sessions. Do you have an idea of when that will be available?

Also, do you know when the actual schedule will be confirmed? Having things be scheduled to maximize logistical efficiency is great, but some registrants need to know if there are any relevant sessions late on Thursday so that the appropriate travel plans can be made.

Thanks,

Michael Price
