When I attend SXSW Interactive I am refreshed. It’s not like I come home with 500 notes on tips and tricks, it’s more like I come back wanting to produce a higher quality of work. I guess that’s what happens when you spend a few days rubbing elbows with the web industry’s leaders. These are the panels and presentations I attended this year:

» Craigslist and Online Community
» Accessing Multimedia: The Object of My Perception
» Moblog Nation: You Can Take It With You
» MoveOn.org’s Eli Pariser and Zack Exley Keynote
» Wikwiki, What?
» Replacing Billboard, Bestseller Lists and Editors With Robots
» Hi-Fi Design With CSS
» Blogging Next: Where Personal Publishing Goes From Here
» Bloggie Awards Ceremony (if either Gothamist or Satan’s Laundromat won, I was to accept the award on their behalf. unfortunately neither won in any category that they were nominated.
