My problem is that I am traveling too much already. I'll be at the Madison Barcamp 3/3 and 3/4, at EA and GDC 3/6-3/9 and then am speaking in Chicago 3/15. SXSW was one of the things I could skip in March. Party for me and take lots of video folks (as if I had to say so lol)

I have been on quite the conference circuit and hands-down, SXSW is the most fun. Its very social, very informative, its a great town and a great season to be there. Check out the list of speakers here, you will see its quite a to-do: http://2007.sxsw.com/interactive/programming/speakers/ If anyone is discouraged by the cost here are a few tips: 1. You wont need a conference pass if you cant afford it. There is plenty going on and plenty of people to hang out with. 2. There are a lot of parties, free sessions, etc. 3. There is also an Austin barcamp that is going on at the same time and anyone can attend and speak there for free. 4. On Craigs List Austin, type in SXSW and you will see you can sublet an apartment or crash a room for next to nothing in price (compared to hotels). 5. Its cheap to fly to Austin from many major cities. Rocketboom has never hosted a party before but this year we are teaming up with 30boxes and Satisfaction to host an official SXSW party on Sat night. http://www.dembot.com/012769.html On Feb 14, 2007, at 11:23 PM, bestdamntechshow wrote: > i'll be there! > > _drew olanoff > www.pluggd.com > www.scriggity.com > www.bestdamntech.com > > --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com <mailto:videoblogging%40yahoogroups.com> , "JD Lasica" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: > > > > Michael created a SXSW page for videobloggers on node101: > > > > > http://node101.org/community/index.php/SXSW06 > > > You get an error when you save the page but it will work. > > > > Who else in the vlogosphere is coming? > > > > Who knows Austin?
