New York Media Types Travel To Austin To Hang Out With Each Other

Sat, Mar 14th, 2009

We're in Austin for the annual South by Southwest tech/media conference with seemingly half of the New York tech/media population. (Say hi! Twitter @fromedome. We're here 'til Tuesday afternoon.)

This is our first time here, and it's a little early to accurately gauge the atmosphere. But from what we remember about last year's coverage -- still during the go-go-go Web 2.0 bubble -- and what we've seen so far this year, it feels like it might be a little subdued. The weather -- chilly and gray -- can't be helping.

What's everyone from doing so far? Attending panels, of course -- we're listening to Apple (AAPL) iPhone/Mac developers Pangea Software explain how their iPhone app Enigmo has made $1.5 million in profit since last summer. (Exposure during Steve Jobs keynote, three weeks as the top paid download, no cost to port to iPhone from Mac edition.)
