While I&#8217;ve always enjoyed the media events I&#8217;ve attended, the prospect of being part of the scene as the next big thing arrives, as Twitter did at SXSW 2007, thrills me.<br \/>\nThese are fast-moving times we live in and you never know what&#8217;s going to transform technology and how we interact with it. If the iPhone isn&#8217;t revolutionary, I don&#8217;t know what is.<br \/>\nThis is my first SXSW and I expect much of what I learn will be unexpected, like the bands I happen to stroll past at Jazz Fest. But there are a number of people I&#8217;m looking for by name:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.chrisbrogan.com\/about\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Chris Brogan<\/a>, a new media marketing leader whose book <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chrisbrogan.com\/where-to-buy-trust-agents\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Trust Agents<\/a> I&#8217;m reading now<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.npr.org\/templates\/community\/persona.php?uid=1830547\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Andy Carvin<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.npr.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NPR<\/a>&#8216;s social media strategist<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/tomconrad.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tom Conrad<\/a>, chief technology officer of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pandora.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pandora <\/a>and a fellow Michigan grad<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blogher.com\/member\/elisa-camahort\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Elisa Camahort Page<\/a>, founder of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.blogher.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BlogHer<\/a> who inspired me and cracked me up when I saw her at MediaBistro Circus<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/ianmaclurg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ian MacLurg<\/a>, social media analyst from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.artprize.org\/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ArtPrize<\/a>, the art extravaganza John participated in last fall in Grand Rapids, Mich.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/semanticstudios.com\/about\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Peter Morville<\/a>, my former boss at Argus Associates, one of the pioneers of information architecture, now at <a href=\"http:\/\/semanticstudios.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Semantic Studios<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/evhead.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Evan Williams<\/a>, a serial entrepreneur now best known as a cofounder of <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/#search?q=sxsw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Twitter<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There are many more. On the SXSW Web site, you can search the attendee list by company, industry, state and name and on a cursory first pass, I marked about 200 people I would love to talk to about what they do.<br \/>\nMaybe it&#8217;s just easier to introduce myself to every single person as they pick up their badges?<br \/>\n<em>Here Loic Le Meur, founder and CEO of <a href=\"http:\/\/seesmic.com\/\">Seesmic<\/a>, talks about why he comes to SXSW every year. &#8220;&#8230;it&#8217;s the place to meet all the geeks in one place.&#8221;<\/em><br \/>\n[youtube=http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=-yhSMpruP-w]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week I&#8217;m letting my geek flag fly.
