Pictured: about to be kicked out of the Ginger Man pub, I drunkenly hopped on these two hot guys on the couch to finish my beer (Eddie Codel and Jonathan Moore). A crowd gathered and I actually heard someone say, indicating us in our fleshpile, “Does anyone have a camera?” In a room full of bloggers and vloggers, where as Jonathan put it, “likely 75% of the North American supply of Xacti’s is right now”… um, yeah. This was the post-Interactive party, spontaneously put together over breakfast with Scott and Mike and sent to the masses via Twitter — creating what Scott calls a “Twittermob”. The party was fucking fabulous, I got to catch up with sweet Phillip, and there was lots o beer. Oh — the beer! Mike and Scott bought a couple pitchers as Blip and Laughing Squid respectively (“party by x”), and when it ran out Scott told random company and startup reps at the party they could “sponsor” it too by buying the next round — in exchange announcing the “sponsorship” over Twitter when the beer was purchased. It became a very fun novelty in no time and there was *too much* beer.
Update: Scott has a great description of the Twitter microsponsorship + party in this post — and while I’m sad there were no Laughing Squid pics of the party, it was *awesome* to see Scott set down the camera and pick up the pint glass!
Anyway, I got to spend some quality time with friends after all the panels and booths were done, and some sexy geeklets — notably #3 and #3. Teh h4wtness!
On with the SXSW sexy — a few days ago I posted the mp3 of the Sex and Computational Technology panel I was on, and I just discovered that video of the panel is online as well. You might also want to check out this video of the Film/Video panel, Sex Scenes Stay Hard Part Four.
