I'm Already Sick Of SXSW
I had a conversation today with a colleague to discuss our SXSW Interactive strategy. My coworker figured, rightfully, that SXSW would be a shitshow and that maybe we should use one of the much talked about group texting apps to stay in touch. I only "use" one group texting app, one that I covered for TechCrunch, and thus suggestedGroupMe. My colleague said that he liked Beluga better and that we should use Beluga. And then he hesitated, "Hmm ... Well maybe we shouldn't use Beluga because what if Facebook 'does something to them' ?..."!!! This is the hyper-techy microcosm that we live in, where you're scared to use a budding app to communicate with co-workers during a conference lest a company "do something" to it. And what? You end up looking uncool?Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/9RC9-MZtl9U/
