Well, I just got back from this evening’s SXSW Mixer for Austin. Overall it was good times and only the slightest prelude to the frenzy of parties that is SXSW.

I was able to hang out with fellow Refresh Austin members (Alex Jones, Tim Thompson, Grant Hutchins, Justin Perkins), former Statesman.com coworkers (Nick Welp, Wendy Mitchell, Omar Gallaga, and Jason Meek), and Geek Austin’s Lynn Bender and Michelle Greer.

It was also great to meet up with new Twitter friend LaniAR of rerevealed.com and new contact Benn Rosales of SinglePointe Realty. They’re both promoting better use of technology and media in real estate via Agent Genius.

Oh, and the Southern Sirens are looking to be booked for a SXSW day party or evening event.
