ny auto show without the crowds

Make the Logo Bigger Bill has put together a fun Flickr slide show of the best of the NY Auto Show. Bill's gone to every NY Auto Show since the beginning of time, and has commentary like only a person who works on the auto brands can sarcastically deliver. I like the matte black Lexus. But want it in a MINI.

sched.org: people really dig this

Some are saying that the big hit to come out of SXSW this year is Sched.org. You can view the schedule I attempted to stick to here.

People used it to get a feel for what was happening at the conference, to see what their friends might be doing, and to keep track of where they were supposed to be going. It exports to your iPhone, and so much more. I saw it open on countless laptops while at the conference.

Made by Chirag Mehta and Taylor McKnight, this is certainly a tool that has some wonderful opportunities - and at the very least, should be a part of every future conference.

watch the demo demonstrations from the comfort of your home. or office.

Today is the last day of DEMO, a super cool conference geared toward emerging technologies, stuff, and new stuff.

A little bit trade show, a little bit product demonstration, a little bit venture capital party. Anyway - you can peak in on the fun and some of the cool new products at their site - where they stream the presentations live. You can also watch the presentations from earlier in the week, like Skyfire (above), the new mobile internet browser that has everyone's pants on fire with excitement.
