SXSW Interactive for the uninitiated is a 5 day event held in Austin, Texas where the very latest in digital thinking is discussed by over 40,000 digital ninja’s over 10 sites across this awesome city. Zuckerberg, Shirky, Sterling, O’Reilly, Gates, Jobs to name a few have all provided keynote speeches in past years.
This year, I (Jonathan Astor) was there to savor the experience and lap up priceless knowledge on current and future trends. Over the course of the following weeks, I will share key trends and insights with you. Be prepared for a few surprises along the way, as our resident social business dynamo (kind of like that title) also managed to interview some industry legends and techies.
Key trends covered in future posts: augmented reality – gimmick or reality?location based services – will life become one big check in? The ’Thank You Economy’ and corporate humanization, gamification and Web3.0. I have also uploaded some pics from SXSW to Valtech on Flickr, if you fancy. Virtual gift possibly for the first person who can count correctly the QR codes in our photostream
