I received word from the SXSW planning committee that my panel idea was not chosen for the 2008 SXSW schedule. I can’t say that I’m surprised, since documentation isn’t a very exciting or compelling topic.

I still would like to contribute to a SXSW topic, so if you’re putting together a panel and need another person, let me know. Personally I specialize in standards based web development where my target areas are:

• Unobtrusive and accessible JavaScript
• Semantic [X]HTML/CSS
• Logical use of XHR (i.e. don’t use it for everything — only where it matters)
• Discussing where certain Web 2.0 and Ajax patterns are over used and abused

If you’re interested, leave me a comment below and I’ll get back to you. Don’t send me an email since I get too much spam at my public address.
