Lanyrd Gives You Access to Content at Conferences

Big legal conferences have come and gone and you may have missed the boat on one or all of them. But, as it turns out, you really could have attended – virtually.

There are a number of web services and sites that give you access to most of the content at conferences, whether you're physically there or not. But one service that is quite phenomenal is Lanyrd.

Lanryd describes itself as a "social conference directory." It features a conference coverage aggregator, pulling together notes, posts, slideshows, audio and more.

For instance, the SXSW 2011 page for Lanryd has 80+ slide decks, dozens of write-ups and video – and more. While it’s not a comprehensive list of content for SXSW, Lanyrd is a great place to go to look at some of the panels you missed out on.

What’s even more interesting about Lanyrd is its social function. Simply sign-in using your Twitter account, and you have access to all of the conferences your contacts are tracking and/or attending. If one of those conferences piques your curiosity, you can track it as well.

So the next time your busy schedule won't allow you to leave town to attend a conference, head over to Lanyrd. Chances are you'll be able to see everything you missed right there on your computer.

And, it's free!
