During SXSW, Richard Binhammer of Dell (RichardAtDell) organized the now infamous AllHat party along with David Armano, Hugh MacLeod, Mark Collier, Mark Drosos and yours truly.
Hundreds of geeks took the wagon trail over to Allens Boots where we shopped for hats, boots, and socialized in the aisles. Following the in store fun, the cavalry hit the outside patio of Gueros where we enjoyed mouth watering TexMex and memorable conversations.
I’ll let the pictures tell the rest of the story…

And you thought the TechSet + Windows Mobile Rat Pack at the Belmont party was slammed…
Digg hosted a live episode of Diggnation at Stubbs BBQ during SXSW Interactive with thousands of the show’s most ardent fans in attendance. It was simply mind blowing. The cult-like phenomenon that served as the undercurrent for our Geek culture is now broaching pop status. Kevin Rose and Alex Albrecht represent a new genre of celebrity and if you don’t believe me, just ask any one of Kevin Rose’s 375,000 friends on Twitter.
I’ll let the pictures tell the rest of the story…

During SXSW Interactive 2009, interesting, notable, and unexpected geeks as well as the Internet Famous filled the streets in and around the conference and the after hours parties.
Some of my best encounters happened simply by walking from point A to point B.
