Red Hat Summit -- the unofficial start of summer technology discussions and the official conference for all things open source -- begins tomorrow. For attendees, there are a handful of links to keep handy so that you can hit the sessions, booths, demos, and after-hours events that make Summit so awesome.

• Session catalog
• Trailmaps
• Press room

Even if you can't attend this year (or since, realistically, no human being can attend everything going on at Summit), here is a round-up of social media channels and people to follow so you can dip your toe into the Summit experience.

**NEW** Interesting Personal Accounts

A lot of the people presenting at Summit or working in the DevZone and Partner booths have a social media presence all their own. It's definitely worth tracking what they're doing at Summit, and after. A handful:

• Christian Posta - @christianposta
• Eric Schabell - @ericschabell
• Claus Ibsen - @davsclaus
• Edson Yanaga - @yanaga
• Gordon Haff - @ghaff
• Thomas Cameron - @thomasdcameron

• Grant Shipley - @gshipley
• Burr Sutter - @burrsutter
