I\u2019m thrilled to have been a part of planning this year\u2019s conference as programming co-chair. My first thought when I was going over the schedule was: “I can\u2019t wait to go to all of these sessions!” My next thought was, “Humm, how do I decide what to go to?”<\/p>\n

Having seen this year\u2019s conference come together from start to finish, I\u2019m awed by the ideas and thought that went into the planning process. It\u2019s a fantastic schedule. Below are the sessions I\u2019m most looking forward to. Track me down in Denver and let me know what you think. See you there.
\n<\/p>\n

It\u2019s Not Mobile First. Think Content First.<\/a> Thursday,\u00a011:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This nails it.\u00a0It all comes back to content. What is your story? How are you telling it? This session will specifically look at how a content-first approach has worked effectively and the presenters\u00a0even promise to prototype some content-first strategies. You\u2019ll walk away from this with takeaways you can apply in your newsroom.<\/p>\n

Welcome to Snapocalypse: Navigating, Surviving \u2026 and Thriving? \u2026 With Distributed Content<\/a>,\u00a0Thursday,\u00a011:30 a.m.\u201312:30\u00a0p.m.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is a big topic in the industry and only poised to grow. There are lots of implications for organizations to think through in this space and this session will hit on all of them \u2013 content, revenue\u00a0and what success looks like.<\/p>\n

Storytelling from the Smartphone Lock Screen<\/a>,\u00a0Thursday,\u00a02:30\u20133:30\u00a0p.m.<\/strong><\/p>\n

My lock screen is my new homepage. Every morning, I grab my phone, scroll through the alerts\u00a0and catch up on a variety of the things I missed. This session examines that exact space. Strategies to consider, favorite examples and tips on how to best use the space — you\u2019ll learn it all.<\/p>\n

The Break-It-and-Make-It Workshop!<\/a> Friday,\u00a02\u20134:30\u00a0p.m.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cracking something open, seeing the inside of it, demystifying the process or the technology \u2013 I love everything about this session. To know what the inside of a phone looks like, to sift through its parts \u2013 that\u2019s just cool.<\/p>\n

10 Tech Trends in Journalism<\/a>,\u00a0Saturday,\u00a010\u201311\u00a0a.m.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Amy Webb’s\u00a0sessions are always full and never disappoint. What technology can and will do for our industry is amazing. I walk away from this presentation each year thinking about the trends for months afterward. You will, too.<\/p>\n
