Any news.YCers going to SXSW?
Let's organize a meetup. Is that cool pg? (wanna join us? :)
I'm thinking lunch on Sunday or Monday perhaps.
(If you're not familiar with SXSW Interactive (http://2008.sxsw.com/interactive/), it's a yearly conference covering subjects like web standards, APIs, new business models, web 2.0, design and entrepreneurship. You can get a sense of the topics at http://panelpicker.sxsw.com/)
Hope to meet some of you there.
- pius 19y agoSounds cool, I'll be there!
- rms 19y agoFor anyone going to the music, I strongly recommend the best band from Pittsburgh touring nationally, Black Moth Super Rainbow.
- ctingom 19y agoSounds like fun. I'll be there. Sunday night is the bowling, so I'm good any other night.
- dirtae 19y agoI'll be there for Interactive and Film. A meetup sounds like fun.
- webwright 19y agoI went last year and was underwhelmed. Most of the talks necessarily had to speak to the lower common denominator in the room. My advice would be to avoid going to talks/sessions about topics where you're knowledgeable and stick to stuff that's new/interesting to you. Oh, and have fun. The parties are a blast!
- ekanes 19y agoThe real value in most conferences is in the hallways, talking to the other attendees.
- clay 19y agoI'm going to this but I was planning on not buying a ticket and just going to various shows / parties with a big group of indie music type friends. Are there any panel discussions that are free? At any rate I'm pretty pumped up about this. I'd be down for meeting up some startup types at a bar. Anyway this seems really fun, I'm pretty pumped!
- ekanes 19y agoHow about: Sunday, 12:45 (previous session ends 12:30, next session starts at 2PM) Where: Rio Grande (good Mexican food, close to the convention centre) http://tinyurl.com/2cfd7a http://tinyurl.com/2cfd7a
- clay 19y agoThis thread seems like it kinda died off. Wanna make a facebook event for this and see if a bunch of people want to come?
- larrykubin 19y agoI'd like to meet up. I live in Austin so I know the area really well. I bought the full badge, so I'll be going to see a lot of bands as well. Feel free to send me an email.
- ALee 19y agoThree of us are going to be there. Agreed. We should definitely meet up.
