Conference session scheduling tool

Big conferences have so many sessions running at the same time that it can be overwhelming to try and plan which ones to attend (especially before you have the program in hand). I just discovered a cool little tool that lets you mark which sessions you are planning to attend, skip, or read.  I know at least 3 of my readers are going to the Ecological Society of America conference next week, so I thought I'd post the link in case you haven't found it already. Check it out!

Anyone know of any blogger meetups happening at ESA this year?

I LOVE the scheduler! I just wish I could figure out how to sync it with my iCal.

wish I could go to ESA. have fun! I never got to go, even tho I love conferences. The first year, my advisor said I "wasn't prepared," and by the second year, I had left the program and had a job. I'd still love to go someday, just to hear all the new developments.

Sarcozona, I agree that it would be awesome if it could work with ical. Maybe next year!

I hope you make it to ESA someday, penn! That's too bad your advisor didn't encourage you to go for the experience. It would also be cool to meet you in real life!
