SxSW

The 2008 South by Southwest continues for the next 3 days in Austin, Texas. Enjoy music, films, and more. A big hit with people attending the conferences and festivals is Sched.org. It displays the entire conference and festival calendars and all the music, films, and interactive events. It has been a huge help to overwhelmed SxSW attendees.

The simple-to-use yet elegant web application uses a straightforward Ajax interface, and was created by 24 year-old Taylor McKnight and 27 year-old Chirag Mehta. McKnight is a web designer, and Mehta is an IT consultant. They whipped the site up in a mere 24 hours, and have helped more than 2,000 people conquer the confusion of all the official and unofficial conferences, parties, and festivals.
