You can also follow the action on Twitter through our @salsalabs account and the hashtag #salsa10.

For those of you attending the conference, we've set up a unique way for you to share your experiences with others through our Flickr page. Simply email any photos you take from your mobile device to the email address sun68small2twitter@photos.flickr.com. Make sure to put a description of the photo in the subject line and add "#salsa10". These photos will be immediately uploaded to our public photo site and shared through our Twitter feed.

We've got two days jam-packed with create panels and brilliant strategists, but of course we also have a Salsa Fiesta planned for Thursday night as well. Hope to see you there!
