the ‘ontheground’ team is here in austin for #sxsweco

P655

i’ve arrived!

currently writing this out from the ground base that is conjuncture – a fantastic mellow co-working space in austin texas.

arriving into austin around eight last night as i missed my 3:30 connecting austin flight from houston i got put on standby and did not get going until around 7:15pm – landing just after eight at the austin airport.

i then got chatting to a great guy on the information booth about austin – he gave me a bunch of places that i should check out over the course of the week. feels great to have a conference that i can go to and then explore austin around the edges.

for the first time i also braved out a different method of transport from the airport – the $1 flyer 100 from the airport was super simple. i’ll be using that on sunday to get back to the airport no doubt.

wandering over to the hilton last night to see if i could grab the mifi from the ups hosted at the hilton (it was closed too late) it was interesting to see a quieter southby.

the buzz of all my adventures of this city however remain with me so i was painting in the visuals of the crowds regardless. i feel blessed by my sponsors for making this happen.

i’ll be trying my upmost to get as much coverage out over here about our livingARK project but also learning a lot from the sessions and the speakers who are in attendance this week.

if your here to demo a product, project or service for sxsweco and we are not following each other on twitter do follow back and check out the ark site – ark.me.dm for more details of where my content from this week will be heading too.

right now, i’m heading out for lunch at the iron cactus i think. i love that darn place, a beer or two and a bit of a lay down in the park near the river till after 3pm when i’m hoping i have a place to crash for the week in downtown.

connected with friends local old and hoping to meet the new ones over the coming days – feels good to get a virtual break of sorts too.

feels like i’m back home.
