One of the great things we are doing with the Topic Voting Tool is to allow for anyone to be able to participate in on what topics most interest them or are important to them. You do not have to be attending Citrix Synergy to participate. You just need to create an account for the voting tool. If you are attending Citrix Synergy, you will still need to create an account, as this is a separate tool and is not incorporated into the registration process. You can begin by choosing to vote or not to vote, it's up to you. You can also give feedback on a topic to maybe give it more focus, or to make it have a broader scope, the choice is yours. Here are some simple steps to begin the voting or commenting:
Click here to go to the Geek Speak Topics Voting Tool: http://www.citrixsynergy.com/topics.php

The Geek Speak Live! Session Topics Voting Tool is now available.
http://www.citrixsynergy.com/topics.php
With the topic voting tool you can vote on all existing topic ideas or even suggest new ones. The idea behind the tool is to have a list of topics that can be used as a Geek Speak Session that was conceived and promoted by you the attendees. The whole premise behind Geek Speak is to allow everyone to have a voice and to hear from others on topics that are most important to you and your peers. In Geek Speak fashion the tool will allow for you give a vote of liking on a scale of 1,2, or 3, with 3 being I like it a lot!
To be able to vote or suggest a topic, you will need to have an account.
You do not have to be attending the event to participate in topic voting tool,
Nor do you have to be registered to attend the synergy event for you to be able to participate
It's easy to get started, when you go to click to vote, you will be prompted to login
This is where you can create an account for the topic tool,
Once again you do not need to register for the event!
We would love to hear from you on the current topics, and maybe even on some new ones,
Click the link below to access the tool and start casting your votes!
The landing page for Geek Speak Live Synergy 2009 is now available on the Citrix Developer Network.
The page is meant to be a focus point for the aggregation of all the different components for Geek Speak Live at Synergy 2009. You can now see the complete list of speakers and sessions listed here by session type and session scheduling time.
http://community.citrix.com/display/cdn/Geek+Speak+Live+Synergy+2009
Yes, we still have the main page on the Citrix Synergy site,
http://www.citrixsynergy.com/geek_speak_live.php
And there is still the main schedule on the Citrix Synergy site,
http://www.citrixsynergy.com/about.php?id=8
While the schedule on the Citrix Synergy site is complete, schedules can sometimes be a little overwhelming, and by having this dedicated site in the CDN, it will allow us to give focus on Geek Speak as opposed to the whole Synergy event. Synergy is an incredible event, and sometimes you just need to digest events in pieces. By having a place where we can add information about Geek Speak, and give you an opportunity to give feedback, comments, or suggestions; we hope to make your Geek Speak Experience even better.
