You’ve undoubtedly noticed that posting here has been low. I just (quite literally) got back from South by Southwest in Austin and I’m pumped to write up a big post on the things I learned. Until I get that done, here are some exceptional articles I read about this year’s SXSW:

Designers, developers, marketers, PR, anyone involved in the interactive space are welcome to attend and participate.
