To SXSWi, and Beyond
As we speak, I’m at 30,000 feet, on my way to Austin, TX for South by Southwest Interactive. Although this is an annual pilgrimage for thousands of people who work, live, eat, sleep, and breathe interactive, it’s actually my first time attending the conference. I’m prepared to be completely overwhelmed and exhausted, but any tips for maximizing the experience are greatly appreciated.
It should be an exceptional event. There are so many unbelievable speakers and panels lined up; unfortunately, many are in concurrent time slots, and I’m already frustrated that I won’t be able to see them all.
I’m particularly excited about an event I discovered merely a week ago: SXSH (Social Health 2010: Sharing. Exchanging. Social Health.) Taking place the day before SXSWi kicks off, SXSH promises to be an incredible opportunity to connect with and learn from some of the country’s top Health 2.0 leaders. The “un-conference” kicks off with a keynote from Doug Ulman, President and CEO of LIVESTRONG, and it’s all uphill from there.
If you’re going to be at SXSW and we’ve never met, please reach out to me on Twitter at @scheuguy — I’d love to connect.
