For those who are going to Lotusphere, you can now get session time and information on the Lotus website. (For those who are not, why not?).
Every year people gripe about getting the Lotusphere session information in accessible (read: synchable with my Palm Pilot or other PDA) formats, I have completed the first version of my seventh annual labor of love and converted the sessions to a db, but it is good for much more than just PDA synching. There are fun bells and whistles to make the database useful for planning purposes as well.

My blog post where I provide more information (and unfettered enthusiasm)
Note: this year, the database starts with all session the information in place. But it is worth coming back and watching for future releases, as some of the fun is yet to come. You can also replicate the database if you don’t want to download again next time we make changes. There is a handy button inside the sessions db itself for that.
By the way, if you choose to use the db to do some exciting and cool app, be sure to let me know so I can mention it on the web page. I love to give credit, and think of how many people will see your cool app. More than 3000 Lotusphere attendees downloaded the sessions db last year, and that doesn’t count people who got it from a friend.
