what I meant to send last night...

[Marley Magaziner]

ok so I wrote this on a plane (obvvvv) and was going to send it last night but then internet in the room wasn't free ...but there is a pool on the roof so I guess it's even?  there's free internet in the lobby of the hotel so lets see how far we can get with that.

ok humpus from last night! shamrock shakes on the agenda, holla!
 

Blah blah on a plane to Austin blah blah I’m already so over #sxsw (the # is instinctual by this point) and I’m tired from traveling and need to get my energy back up for taco eating and running around for the next 3 days.  I’m excited but I feel like the mythos of #sxsw is part of my cynicism… the whole omg-epic-party-awesome-wish-you-were-here elitism and I’m kinda thrilled to be going to this crazy 4-day music-party-bender but I also acknowledge that if I weren’t going I’d be SO VERY VERY OVER IT very publicly on the internet.  As it is, I’m following @SXSWfreeNOMS and getting more jealous of the people getting free tacos and margaritas than the people seeing unknown-band-that’s-going-to-be-so-big-this-year-no-really. 

 

Observing the tech/media part of #sxsw via all my social media outlets was probably just as good as being there.  Twitter is still twitter.  Foursquare has won me over but I still don’t understand what you can do with all your points.  To quote Paula Poundstone, I’m mayor of funkytown.

 

Last year I was just getting to know someone who is now a good friend and we were geeking out about crossword puzzles and he told me about the clue that provoked his ire more than any other.  4 letter word for crunchy sandwich.  Please send in your guesses. 

I wasn't on the internet that much today so no links but second update might have links to stuff. I updated my blog this morning too: www.marleymagaziner.squarespace.com
