The panel will provide some variety to the general conference content in the sense that it represents technology solutions and experiences that are socially aware. At this point, technologies and capabilities have advanced to the point that many previous socially-oriented issues have been overcome without this necessarily being widely known. This is the point for a good conjuncture of social informatics perspectives and technological developments. The audience is strongly encouraged to pose questions from their own frameworks for the enlightenment of all, bringing together some disparate disciplines in a common conversation.
