  • If you can't make it to Austin for Netroots Nation, that doesn't mean you can't be part of the excitement. You can watch all of the action (or at least all of our keynotes and panels) at netrootsnation.org, courtesy of ustream.tv.

    The wonderful crew at 5 Steps Forward Media will film all Friday, Saturday and Sunday sessions happening in Exhibit Hall 4, Ballroom E, Ballroom F, Room 12, Ballroom G, and Room 12. We'll be building and promoting a fully-searchable video archive in the weeks following the convention. Check the online agenda for listings.

Panelists include: Roy Sekoff, founding editor of the Huffington Post; Naomi Seligman Steiner, deputy director of CREW; Michael Silberman of EchoDitto and former MeetUp director for Howard Dean’s Presidential Campaign; and Jim VandeHei, co-founder of Politico.
