Bad Pitch Takes on SXSW


Whether or not you're headed to SXSW, we're foisting the news on you that we will both be in Austin for the interactive portion of this 25-year-old festival.

I'll be channeling my inner luchadore for a panel discussion with David Binkowski, Krista Neher and Saul Colt. Local media are watching closely in case I do a stage dive or folding chairs are thrown.
As if my panel isn't scary enough, Richard will be on the dais with BIGfrontier's Steve Lundin.

As the picture above suggests, SXSW is a bit of a creative explosion. This is my first trip to the event. But having attended Mardi Gras three times, it's beginning to sound like nerd carnival...more wifi and fewer beads.

We're looking forward to converging with fellow nerds for a few days. If you'll be in attendance, let us know in the comments or via Twitter (via @badpitch, @laermer or @prblog). We may try to hold a last-minute, spontaneous tweet up.

  1. Austin welcomes you with open arms! Know that you'll be among plenty of PR/mass comm industry friends (SXSWi ain't just for geeks anymore). Looking forward to catching some of your antics.
