Design, technology, parties, robots, beer, barbeque, legos, MIT, Google, video games, blogs, music. Those are some of the words that come to mind after the first few days of the 2008 SXSW Festival. Check their site for podcasts and videos of the sessions, and check Flickr for tons more photos.
From a conference perspective the folks at SXSW really do a lot of things right. Blanket wi-fi at the conference center helps distribute the ideas from the conference across the world as it happens. The vibe is great and everyone here seems to love the whole thing. As with any conference their are a few clunkers in the panels, but there are a lot more hits than misses. If anything the conference is TOO successful, as the lines to get into the parties are really starting to impact my ability to make those valuable business connections.

2008“SXSW西南偏南音乐节”快照
由麦克．彼克的新款数码相机拍下的一些照片．
设计，技术，派队，机器人，啤酒，烧烤，层叠玩具，麻省理工学院，搜狗，电玩，博客，音乐．这些词是在2008＂SXSW西南偏南音乐节＂开幕后的几天内变的炙手可热起来．为播客们检查播放网址和上传在上面的视频，检查更多的共享相册．
参与此次会议的人们确实做了很多正确的事．铺在会场中间的地毯帮助传播由会议讨论得出的想法，并把这些想法传播到世界各地．这里的氛围是很融洽的，这里的每个人看上去对所有的事都很满意．正如任何会议中总有一些拖后腿的人在里面一样，这个研讨会也不能例外，不过成功大于失败就是了．当这些派队得到了足够的支持并且开始影响我做那些有价值的商业联系时，这个会议就太成功了．
