Who from HN will be at SXSW? Anyone want to help organize a Hacker news meet/drink/tweet-up?<p>I'm a recent transplant to SF from Austin, and a multi-year-repeat attendee of SXSW, so I'd be happy to recommend locations, events, etc.. especially for those who are staying through SXSW music (HIGHLY recommended).
It seems like there is an official YC meetup at Submerged on March 15 from 5-7pm, although the only details I can find are here:<p><a href="http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1138610" rel="nofollow">http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1138610</a><p>Given that there is already an event (with PG in attendance), I don't know if there's any need for a separate HN meetup.
If you'd like to piggy back on a similarly geeky/developer-focussed meetup we'll be having, it'd be great to get a few more folks along <a href="http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/5611017/TX/Austin/Little-World-Gifts39-iPhone-Developer-Meetup/Buffalo-Billiards/?ps=6" rel="nofollow">http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/5611017/TX/Austin/Little-Wor...</a>
SXSW is so packed schedule-wise, having your own meeting this late in the game is kind of hard.<p>I suggest piggy backing on the Nuclear Tacos meeting 6 pm aMonday the 15th in Brushy Square Park ( <a href="http://my.sxsw.com/events/event/4965" rel="nofollow">http://my.sxsw.com/events/event/4965</a> ) and the Dorkbot at 6 pm on Saturday the 13th in the same place ( <a href="http://my.sxsw.com/events/event/5292" rel="nofollow">http://my.sxsw.com/events/event/5292</a> ). I think that you should be able to get into those two without a badge, but I am not sure.<p>There are also events at Austin Hacker Space, and some people from the Austin Linux groups are having a party 1pm to 4pm Sunday the 14th, at Texas Coworking, which is over BD Riley's near the Driskill.
Sounds great. Let's make it happen. Could I suggest a day thing rather than evening as the sched is already jam packed.<p>What about coffees at Halcyon/etc?
