Organizing an event is quite a big task or responsibility that's why it is really important to have a certain knowledge on how to properly organize one in order to do it the right way and avoid doing unnecessary things.

Plastic surgery Beverly Hills has always seen a drastic surge each
year due to the rising demand of people to look good and feel better and
looking at that the flow of surgeries performed each year is
increasing. Some of the most well known entertainment industry celebs
and business tycoons are also based in Beverly Hills and that is one of
the reason why plastic surgery procedures are gaining so much momentum
here.

All these comments are completely condescending. Not everyone wants to run Microsoft (there is not enough money in the world for everyone to be Bill Gates). So you are saying that in order to be say.....Office Manager, you need to have an opinion and write it all on a Blog? You gotta be kidding! I think most blogs are repetitive and the people on them just say what they think others want to hear. That's why I find linkedin to be the most boring useless drivel ever. What a bunch of sheep! Someone will post an article about the efforts to standardize Widget production and everyone will chime in about how it is high time someone "leverage this tool to standardize widget productin." My point is, who cares what your opinion is? I understand this if you want to be a journalist or writer. But most people just want a paycheck (and wanting a paycheck does not make you a loser or a slacker or whatever). It is just BS all of it.

What if you can't write code for computer games? People who tell us no one is going to hand us anything usually got handed something themselves at one point even if it was a burger flipping job. Most people don't start their own company right out of high school. The economy stinks, and you are blaming the people who got left out in musical chairs. There are literally 800-1000 applicants for even a busboy job. So everyone is supposed to just own their own restaurant instead? That would be an awful lot of restaurants for not a lot of customers.

I guess I have a different perspective since I go to trade shows for work. I am used to being lost in crowds and the flakiness of people. Even the party scene itself is overwhelming however- I wasn't ready for that.

Great write up about the event. This was my first SXSWi experience and I wasn't sure what to expect. I was told to RSVP to everything and of course didn't make it to any of those. More often then not, we just let each day lead us and direct us. However, I met many great people, was able to network and enjoy some great parties.

I agree with the comment below, lots of ad focus and not lot of new product focus. Overall though, it was a great experience and well worth it. Of course, I didn't have to pay for the badge.

Haha glad you enjoyed yourself :) I'm not saying that the meetup I hosted was a bust or that SXSWi was bad, just that it was not what I expected and that generally you just had to go with the flow and not be bothered if something didn't work out the way you imagined it would have.

Hey, that was a good meet up you hosted! I felt there was too much advertising and less focus on actual new products. I think I RSVPed to the Crowdtap party in your photo...but never made it ;)

Carlee!!! I love that you wrote this!! So I haven't been able to go to SXSWi because of lack of funding from my job when they wanted me to go, to having midterms in school (and missing those is a big no-no). I always hear about the AMAZINGNESS of it all, but being a marketer, I've worked a lot of trade shows...and they're exhausting and never turn out how you expect. Hearing about SXSWi reminds me of hearing from recruiters about companies: they're telling you only the hyped up stuff, not the real things you probably should know about. Fortunately, you saved me! I still want to go at some point (maybe no midterms next year), but at least I'll have better expectations. I get so tired of flaky people, especially bloggers. I had a meetup in DC a few months ago, and ALL but one cancelled on me...and that's a lot of people in DC who've wanted to meet me "so badly just let me know when you're in town I'll be there!" I think the best plan is like the one you have: target specific people who you've really connected with, not just the people who it'd be nice to meet. Well, if I get to go next year, I'll let you know so we can meet, and I promise I will not only RSVP but actually show up!

"places stop looking different, but instead feel different." -- exactly. I think that's what makes putting your finger on the pulse of a place so hard. Sometimes we think a city is just made up of a bunch of buildings and streets and businesses and houses, but really it's the *people* that make a place unique.

Re: For Raleigh: Notes From Austin

emilyjasper — Mon, 28 Mar 2011 13:53:34 -0000

I really like that you talked about how an area is like (or not like) an area you're living in. For example, I move so often, places stop looking different, but instead feel different. Like Blacksburg has some old country to it, but there's this pulse of creative energy...it turns out there are a number of startups and techies heading here to the mountains because we're practically an incubator for ideas. I hope you had a blast!
