Courtesy of the unofficial SXSWBaby.com comes a SXSW Checklist. Some highlights:
- Treo/Blackberry/Cameraphone and attendant charger, set up to moblog endlessly to Flickr...
- ...bookmark the official mobile site sxsw.mobi in your phone as well.
- I’ve configured Dodgeball to say that I’m in Austin...and configured Twitter to send stuff my phone...I hope you all upped your SMS plans already!
- Phone numbers: folks to meet up with, your hotel front desk, and a few taxi companies
already programmed into my phone, like Austin Yellow Checker Cab,
(512) 452-9999, and Austin Cab Company (512) 478-2222. - Printouts of my registration confirmation email, my hotel confirmation email, a downtown Austin map, and public transit options. Just in case.
- print out film venues and music venues [PDF] if necessary, and the Austin showlist (highly recommended)..I plan to bring a highlighter to do some dayshow-planning on the plane.
Tentative schedule of panels, keynotes, screenings, parties, music showcases, unofficial events, sightseeing, and more...And in that tentative schedule, I’ll have my Plan B, Plan C, Plan D, and the knowledge that plans may fly out the window the minute I wake up.
In case you can't make it to SXSW but don't want anyone to know how lame you are, we've published Hypebot's Official How To Pretend Your At SXSW Guide.
