I’m attending the Search Engine Strategies SES Chicago 2011 Conference in November. I can’t wait to soak everything up; from meeting vendors to taking notes from leaders in the industry.

I got an email update from the conference yesterday telling me about the mobile app I can download earlier in the day. I installed it when I got home. I have to say I’m pretty impressed.

The home screen has a set of icons that help you navigate around. Sessions gives you a list of all the events throughout the day. Each day is broken down by time and has a star next to each event. When you press the star, it adds it to your schedule. At any time you click an event and it conflicts, a nice notification pops up and lets you know which event it conflicts with. Clicking an event shows extended event information, the speaker, a summary and the ability to add notes. Schedule is my favourite part of the app. It saves me time because I don’t have to enter my schedule into my calendar or scribble it in my notebook.

Thumbs up SES!

I took some screenshots of the app with my iPhone 4, have a look!
