It’s that time of year again! Luckily I will be attending SXSW Interactive again this year after a great trip (and learning experience) last year. It was an overwhelming trip trying to catch all the break-out sessions that applied to me while trying to enjoy some of the nightlife as well. Austin is a great place with tons to do for such a condensed downtown, especially during SXSW! This time I have backup – a coworker from work will be joining in order to soak up more knowledge to bring back to Tampa. Since last year seemed rushed, I have made arrangements to stay a bit passed the Interactive portion of SXSW to catch some music, relax with family in Austin, and enjoy more of downtown.

We will be staying in the Omni – Downtown Austin for the first half of the trip. Then may have friends join and either see what else is available downtown or stay at a family member’s lakehouse on Lake Travis. Hopefully there will be some nice warm sunshine by the time we get there!
