For those in the web/design/interactive realm, SXSW is like Mecca. It’s this place you go every year — sometimes to hear great panel discussions, other times just to meet and hang out with your friends and contemporaries.

A few weeks back, the SXSW crew posted the 2008 panel picker giving you and anyone else who wants the chance to vote on the panels most deserving to be included in the SXSWi 08 lineup.

While it might be a bit of a popularity contest in some regards, you might be interested to know that my buds Brian Warren and Mark Bixby along with myself have an entry in there called ‘Finding a Niche vs Doing it All’ which we recommend you give high marks to.
