SXSW Meet Ups, Tweet-Ups, Geek Parties and Events
I have been meeting a ton of new people that are going to SXSW. Are you going? Send me your twitter name or look for "Alex Harris" in the SXSW Registrant Directory. You can also find me on the SXSW Ning networking site.
As South By South West gets closer, there are a lot of social events popping up. Below is a list of meet-ups that I am considering so far. These events may or may not be listed on the SXSW website. I will also be in town for the Music portion as well. If there are any suggestions on events that I should consider going to. Post them here!

Monday night is jam packed with events.
I also invite you to check out the PhizzPop party, co-hosted by Refresh Austin, at Maggie Mae's and the Great British Booze-up across the street at Shakespeare's.
What is a SXSW wristband and why would I need one if I have a music platinum pass already?
I don't think you need a wristband if you have a platinum.
