Fantastic! Very cool.

My two cents:

-- If a talk was a keynote, suggest including that identifier
consistently; currently missing from IxD09. Suggest a parenthetical
modifier as easier to scan (Keynote) By the same token, it might be
worth indicating the other presentation contexts (session, lightning
round, etc.) as it gives a clue about duration.

-- Interactions 08 is a subcategory but there's no parallel
subcategory for Interaction 09. We'll want that starting in 2010,
yes? 

So, it might look like this:

TOPIC CATEGORY
Interaction '09
Speaker Name, Company or School: Presentation Title (Keynote)
Speaker Name(s), Company or School: Presentation Title (Session)
Speaker Name(s), Company or School: Presentation Title (Lightning
Round)

Interaction '08
Speaker Name, Company or School: Presentation Title (Keynote)
Speaker Name(s), Company or School: Presentation Title (Session)
Speaker Name(s), Company or School: Presentation Title (Lightning
Round)

If we don't want everything organized by speaker name, then have
everything begin with the presentation name. IMHO, there aren't so
many entries in each category that we'd need to break out
subcategories by presentation type. 

Create extensible parallels in the info org structure and, above all,
be consistent!

FTW!
