SXSW Interactive is rapidly approaching, and with only a few days to pore through the numerous panels being held from March 11-15th, we’ve decided to help you out.
CIR reporter G.W. Schulz (who covers homeland security) and Distribution and Online Community Manager Meghann Farnsworth have put together a helpful list of the Best of SXSW for the time-strapped investigative reporting or social media manager out there. We’ve even put them into a handy Google map so you can track panels by location.
Want to meet up during the conference? Feel free to contact us via email or @mention us on Twitter. We’ll be there all week!
