Austin + Skype + SXSW = Best. Time. Ever
Sometimes a perfect combination of events creates something even greater than the sum of the parts. Well we think that's firmly in the cards at this year's SXSW, and the parts in this equation are already pretty impressive!
We're incredibly excited to be part of SXSW Interactive this year, and even more thrilled to be hosting our very own party. It's going to be one hell of an evening, made all the more amazing with the appearance of a few special guests (think tech giants), our take on the family game show favorite - Family Feud, and a performance by Cut Chemist.
Party details are below, and we encourage everyone that will be in Austin to RSVP here for the night of fun. However before the fun (and open bar) starts, we need a little help.
As mentioned, we'll be hosting our own tech version of Family Feud. That's where you come in! We need answers we can use to poll the panelists from some of the largest internet companies around. Between now and the show, we'll be posting a series of short (and we really mean short) surveys - all we ask if you take a minute or two to fill these out. Click here for the first survey and be sure to tweet (#SkypeSXSW) and share - you can get the results in Austin.
Our CTO, Jonathan Rosenberg will also be involved, presenting a session on "The Ten Deadly Sins of Mobile Video Calling." During the session, he'll look at why it's taken so long to get to where we are today, what has changed and what's next for video calling. More info can be found here.
Can't wait to see you at the party and the panel.
