    Product/site design process. Not using Photoshop, but the process of how one goes from an idea to a real working site/app/spaceship. Coding is easy; products are hard.

    Also… robots.

    In a nutshell? I’m interested in the broader social impact of social media, new technology, and social networking.

    I’d love to see a discussion, fireside chat, whatever you want to call it, on creating communities from social media. (I’d be willing to help facilitate, even!)

    I want to see/hear something totally off-the-wall. I think IGNITE has unequivocally illustrated for Philly that the standard ppt presentation is lacking…I’d love to see some video/lights/lazer/dancingladies talk on SEO, javascript, or some otherwise mundane web-like topic.

    How to get social media right.

    How to understand the implications of the Cloud as we move beyond Web 2.0.

    More on ROI (sorry).

    As a developer, building a social site isn’t hard, but building a good one is, but even then it will suck if it isn’t used. So anyone open to talking about how you go from 0-60 with a social site?

    Formal presentations are the last thing people want. They are only useful as a prelude to a demo.

    Interactive is best. If you are new to Barcamps don’t think you need to be an expert to lead a session. Often the non-expert creates the best session because they engage others with questions.

    I for example will be interested in getting peoples input on how we can get consumers engaged in their own health care. How can we use Social media to accomplish that?

    I would love a discussion on finding freelance work. That’s the sort of thing that work *very* wel as a multivocal conversation.

    - Making the switch to freelancing (especially in this economy)
    - Community building
    - Wordpress / Drupal / other CMS techniques
    - Or more specifically, what are people doing in their choice of CMS to make it easier for clients/users to manage their sites without completely ruining everything.

    I’d like to hear about engineering management/project management, and specifically making the transition from individual contributor to manager.

    User-centered design is also an interest of mine.

    I’d to hear about using technology and social networking in a community service context–for example, organizing a neighborhood watch or disseminating local zoning information.

    Also, I think we really need to talk about the constituencies that are excluded when we rely on technology to get the word out and potential solutions.

    I would love to discuss mobile applications — both design and usability. Things like location-based tracking, interactive applications and social networking on mobile devices is quickly growing but we’re not quite sure if it’s growing in the right ways.

    Also, I love @Michael’s idea about finding freelancing work. What sorts of outlets do you use to search for new opportunities?
