I've shared a document with you called "Freebase Hack Day II - Unconference Session Topics": <BR><a href="http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dg6cqrkj_22g98kw5c4&invite=747240920">http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dg6cqrkj_22g98kw5c4&invite=747240920</a><BR><BR>It's not an attachment -- it's stored online at Google Docs. To open this document, just click the link above. <BR>---<BR><BR>Here's the beginnings of a Google Doc with suggested session topics for the unconference portion of Freebase Hack Day II this Saturday.<BR><BR>Please add descriptions for any topics that you are interested in. If you suggest a topic, be prepared to help lead/facilitate the discussion - it's only fair!<BR><BR>Note that there are only three conference rooms and a limited number of hours, so the actual session topics won't get decided until Hack Day itself when the organizers find out who's interested in what.<BR><BR><div style="padding-bottom: 10px">
