RSA Schedule

One thing that I really hate about multi track conferences, is that it takes me forever to determine what I want to see. And with the upcoming RSA conference, they didn’t make it easy with 20 tracks to choose from!

Here is the workflow that I used to figure out my RSA schedule. The first step was to see what sessions interested me, so I marked up the schedule booklet. Then I mapped all of those sessions by time in a text file. My final step was to re-read the session info, and determine which would be my primary and secondary sessions for that time slot. Yes, I could have used RSA’s online scheduler, but I felt the interface was clunky and slow. Where is sched.org when you need them?

Here is my current schedule for sessions:

Tuesday

  • 3pm – 3:50pm – BUS106 – What wall street thinks of security, redux OR
