Early Registration Extended Through March 27 for JITP 2011 - The Future of Computational Social Science
Since we just got our draft program out last Friday, we are extending the early registration period for JITP 2011 through March 27: http://www.umass.edu/jitp/2011.htm Students - $50 All others - $75 The conference highlights include a keynote from Jaimie Teevan of Microsoft Research: http://www.umass.edu/jitp/Teevan.htm We are also pleased to offer an invited panel with Karen Fisher, Kirsten Foot and Karine Nahon, three huge stars of the UW research community, on the future of data and methods. In addition to our selected research papers, there will be a vendor panel on "Research in the Cloud" and a Round Table discussion on the future of JITP. My five year stint as Editor of JITP is concluding soon and we are discussing important issues of editorial rotation, requirements for Board membership, and the direction of the journal for the next five years. If you have not been to a JITP annual meeting and you want to shape the future of the journal, this is a great conference to attend. We are typically about 75 people in one room for two days with sustained interactions. Presenters of research papers enjoy extended speaking slots and longer than usual Q&A. The Journal of Information Technology & Politics is the Official Journal of the Information and Technology and Politics Section of the American Political Science Association. The journal community, however, is comprised of more than 770 "members" who are drawn from a wide range of disciplines and countries. Hope to see you in Seattle May 16 & 17, 2011. thanks, ~Stu
