Moments before SXSW 2009
Well it’s here again, the week of all weeks for geeks around the globe to come together and share in Austin, TX. Another year has passed, and so fast. Did I learn anything from last year? Did I take home any inspiration? I think I did, but it wasn’t in the panels or the trade show. It was the large masses of people, geeks like me, but better.
In my daily tasks I am alone in my inspiration, constantly searching the inter-web for little sparkles of greatness. I see all these great designs, but they don’t speak to me, yet I know what they are saying. I look beyond the “wow” and ask “how”, and SXSW is my one chance to meet some of these creators of WOW. So many great minds, so many people who think like me, yet none of us are the same.
Being different is really what makes us great, but having a common interest is what brings us together… and that is what the internet is all about.
