Location technology is everywhere. Literally. On the Web. In your car. On
your cell phone. In your business. When it comes to insights into new
developments in location-based technology, it’s clear the one place to be
is the O’Reilly Where 2.0 Conference.
This year Where 2.0 returns to the Fairmont Hotel in San Jose, CA
May 29–30. You’ll find a two-day, single-track conference featuring high profile
keynotes with big players, lightning talks, panel discussions, eye-opening
demos, high order bits, and plenty of time for networking.
The call for participation is now open and we’re looking for
ground-breaking ideas about location aware technology. Inspirational
speakers, adventurous thinkers, iconoclasts, trail blazers, and people
poised to make real money. We’re looking for amazing location systems,
open source hacks, untapped geodata, and companies developing new
products, new services, and new technologies or mashing up old ones. If
you think you know the next killer app to roll off the lab bench, tell us.
Submit your proposal to speak at Where 2.0. Proposals are due by January
5, 2007; registration opens in February 2007.

The big question of this year’s program is: Where’s the value?
We are looking for proposals that can help us find the answers.
How can developers make money at this? What applications have legs?
How can enterprises make money using this?
Sample topics on the radar this year:
Local Search and Advertising
Data
Data Policy
Open Source
Sensorweb
Ultralocal
Mobile
Visualization
Society
Privacy
Environment/NGOs
Virtual Worlds
Location based gaming
Where Fair Projects
If you are looking to put your idea, your company, your technology on the
map, then present it at Where 2.0. It’s the one place where corporate
decision-makers can meet the people building the next wave of location and
mapping enabled technology. Where CTOs swap ideas with grassroots
developers building mash-ups. Where community activists network with
venture capitalists looking for the next investment opportunity. When it
comes to location technology, it’s not just the place, it’s the people.
Remember, proposals are due by January 5, 2007
