The folks at Interactive Ontario run an annual conference in Toronto called ICE. This year’s edition is scheduled for March 17 to 19. And it promises to be a good conference.

Darn.

Don’t they know that the first day of ICE overlaps with the final day of SXSW Interactive in Austin? It’s hard to compete with Chris Anderson and Guy Kawasaki, who are keynoting the final day of SXSW Interactive on March 17.

So, I’ll have to choose SXSW this year. Hopefully next year, the ICE organizers will be able to get a date that’s clear of any conflicts with other social media conferences.

If you are in Toronto March 17 to 19, you may want to register to attend ICE 09. I’m sure you’ll learn a lot and meet some very smart people.
