I enjoyed the Worldcon panel I took in some of today (Future Meat)...it reminded me in all the good ways of convention panels I've attended in person (smart people with expertise saying interesting things), and in none of the bad ways (uncomfortable chairs, hearing difficulties, annoying comments from audience members).

I have these favorited, but I don't know most of the panelists, so I dunno if they'll be good or not.
