Each year Anil Dash organizes a big kickball game called KICK! that kicks off the SXSW Interactive festival. Last year we were a little.. uh.. hung over and were unable to locate the park but this year we were golden. All I really did was drop some balls and kick some fouls and outs.. Walt out performed me by leaps & bounds, but everyone was still very supportive. It was a fun time.

5 Days & Counting

March 2nd, 2003 · 2 Comments

SXSW

On Friday, I’m going to Austin, Texas to attend the South by Southwest (SXSW) Interactive conference with Walt and Nick.

I’m excited, #1, to go to the conference and to see and hear well respected web professionals and to be immersed in the atmosphere. I’m hoping for it to be completely refreshing and motivating, something that I really need right now.

#2, I’m looking forward to seeing my Californian friends, Walt and Nick, who I haven’t seen for over 1 1/2 years.

SXSWi's Kickball Kickoff#3, on Saturday is the SWSXi’s Kickball Kickoff. It’s “an open-invitation kickball game designed to help (cringe) kick off the festivities at the South By Southwest Interactive Festival.” This should be muy interesting since I haven’t played kick ball since 6th grade.

#4 I’m mildly excited about checking out Austin. I’ve been to Texas a few times and have been unimpressed, for the most part. From what I hear, Austin is very cool – great artistic and music scene, a rising technical center, great places to go out, etc. We’ll see. I think I’m more excited just to get out of the city and the cold for a few days.
