It is South by Southwest time again and Austin Texas is completely consumed by inventors, designers, artists, gamers, authors, and any other category that describes a creative class. The beauty of this conference is that it brings together many creative disciplines and everyone shares their passion. It is the intersection of software, film, and music.
Today was registration and as you can see by my badge, I’ll just attend the technical sessions this year. If I sound a little bummed about that it is because there are a few bands this year that I really wanted to see but things are just too busy at work. Oh well. This afternoon, I sat in on a good talk about Javascript patterns and tomorrow I’m looking forward to some great design sessions. I’ll blog some of my thoughts.
