SXSW 2005: Recap

Well crap, no wonder I never put SXSW notes up before. Even just writing short summaries and related thoughts took forever. Plus I probably come off as an ass. Anyway, here they are. I considered trying to gather some more stuff on panels I missed, but honestly, as anyone’s who’s been can attest that you can’t take the panels too seriously. It’s always a tossup, and there’s just too much anwyay. I think I’ve already gone above and beyond the call of duty as far as work is concerned.

The best thing about this SXSW was getting me out of my recent funk (that Portal project was pretty soul-crushing). I had a lot of fun this year (better than last year?) and had a really good mix of hanging w/ old friends and meeting lots of new people (although I’ve been discovering that there were a whole buncha people there that I didn’t get a chance to say hi to. I’ll have to keep a better eye out next year… Also, I’ll try pacing myself better so I’m not as walking dead-like [waking up before 10AM is one of the double-edged things])

I’m going to disattach myself from the screen now.
