SEM News: I’m heading south, and then South by Southwest

Posted by Fluxx

In about 24 hours I'll be sitting on an airplane on my way to Austin, TX. My destination? South by Southwest Interactive (SXSWi). Let's just say, I'm elated to be going. Unlike SES, PubCon, and other conferences I've been to, SXSWi is strictly developer focused. Every session is geared to people who design, develop, manage and direct the technical aspects of the web.

I've spent a fair amount of my time looking over the panels list and getting very excited. I've already got my calendar for sessions mostly figured out; however, most of the time I've scheduled myself to attend about 4 simultaneous sessions. I plan on spending the better part of the 6 1/2 hours of travel time narrowing down my choices. It's hard, though, because pretty much anybody who's anybody in web design and development will be there. But I know it'll be a lot of fun. Plus, the first session of the entire conference is about Snakes on a Plane! You can't get any better than that

Anyways, since I'm flying solo for this trip, if anyone out there in Moz land would like to meet up while I'm in Austin, send me an email (jeff at seomoz dot org). I'd be more than happy to share a drink or have a quick chat. Just look for the tall excited dude with a beard.
