The Social Gaming Summit 2009 is a one day event focused on the intersection of games and the social web. This year's event will focus on helping social games developers build, monetize, and grow their social games. We're bringing together the leaders in free-to-play games, social networking, and payments infrastructure for a full day of panels and talks. We'll be updating this page as we continue to confirm speakers - we hope to see you in June!
