O'Reilly Media and TechWeb have opened the Call for Participation for the
second edition of Web 2.0 Expo New York, scheduled for November 16-19 at
the Javits Center in New York City. Like the just completed SF show, Web
2.0 Expo NY will continue to explore the theme of "The Power of Less"-how
to best use the tools and principles of Web 2.0 technologies to innovate
and stay competitive in a challenging (to say the least) economy. 

Topics include: 
- Landscape & Strategy 
- Marketing & Community 
- Design & User Experience 
- Development 
- Web 2.0 at Work 
- Government 2.0 
- Mobile
- Social Media 

Deadline for proposals is May 26. Visit the Web 2.0 Expo NY proposals page
for more details and a link to the submission form:

Note that the committee received over 1,000 proposals for Web 2.0 Expo SF,
and we're expecting a similar pool for NY. 

Program co-chair Jen Pahlka wrote up some great tips for successfully
submitting a proposal specifically for Web 2.0 Expo at
