Traveling in the Year of Adventure

February 24, 2010 | View Comments

March 12-21: South by Southwest

This is going to be my first out-of-town adventure of the year, and my first SXSW. I’ve signed up for sensory overload via platinum badge, and I can’t wait. Between the film, music, and interactive sessions, I’ll have no shortage of things to write about, photos to take, and general inspiration for the rest of the year. I’m really, really pumped.

May 7-9: MaxFunCon

About a month and a half of rest after SXSW, I’m heading to Lake Arrowhead for MaxFunCon! Hosted by Jesse Thorn, it’s going to be a solid weekend of “cooking, crafts, education, and s’mores” featuring the likes of John Hodgman, Andrew WK, Maria Bamford, Jonathan Coulton, Marc Maron, and more.

Unfortunately, their website is down right now because the data center had a fire drill which set off the sprinklers in the server room. Oops.

    Can’t wait to hear about your travels to SXSW. I was there last year as a tourist only and it was a blast. One of these years I’ll do it up right, buy a Mega Pass and make a week (or so) of it, but not this year. Austin’s a great city and you’re going to have a blast!

    I’m so excited for my first SXSW! I go through the complete schedule every couple days just to make sure I didn’t miss anything. There are just so many cool things to do and see!
