Later this week, Mike, Erika, Brandie and I are headed to Austin, TX for SPRING BREAK SXSW Interactive Conference 2008. We will be eating lots of tex-mex and drinking lots of free beer. But perhaps more importantly we (along with Lane Becker) will be running the most extraordinary panel ever, anywhere: Battledecks II.

We’ve collected some of the finest internet folk around to compete against one another in such categories as jargon, gesturing, and point-making using the one tool that unites us all: powerpoint. There will be presentations and they will be extemporaneous. If you have a bucket list, then this panel should be on it.

We are bringing free beer tokens and other fun Mule goodies. So if you see us wondering around the halls of the conference center, please say hello!
