SXSW Day 4
Day 4 was less than tremendous - there just wasn't anything that jumped out and grabbed me. I mean I learned stuff and thought there were good panels - just not like the past few days.
Panels today:
- Lost in Translation (Various)
- Social Networking and Your Brand (Various)
- Keynote Address (Frank Warren of PostSecret.com)
- Taking it to the Desktop (Lee Brimelow for Adobe AIR)
- WaSP Annual Meeting: Don't break the web (Various)
Great Takeaways from Today:
- Sometimes when we think we're keeping a secret - it's really keeping us. Frank Warren
- Social Networking and other Web 2.0 applications appear to be fueling an 'intimacy revolution' or an 'authenticity revolution.' Audience member
- Sorry...that's as good as I found from my notes today.
Excitement for the day:
- Rain. Rain. More rain.
- Found a new type of coffee: Kick Butt Coffee (a one store shop that intends on becoming as big as Starbucks)
Tonight's meal:
- T.G.I. Friday's: Pretty mundane I know. But we weren't there for the food. Got to hang out with a great bunch of fellow web/tech guys. They make up a group called the Godbit Project. Had a good time networking and chatting about technology stuff with like minded people. Had a great time and will join soon.
