Refresh your body and and join fellow SXSW Interactive participants for a leisurely morning run through Austin.

We’ll meet at the entrance to Brush Park (across from the North side of the convention center) everyday from March 7-11 at 7:30am. The pace will be easy to moderate and the mood will be jolly. I’d like to meet new people, so participants of all experience levels are encouraged to join. Plan to run for 30-40 minutes and explore the trails of Town Lake and Zilker Park. If anyone is familiar with Austin, please feel free to suggest a running route. I’m looking forward to meeting all of you there!

I met a lot of great people last year and look forward to doing the same again this time around.

It’s always a ton of fun to get a bunch of geeks, designers and Type-As together to collaborate. I haven’t selected any sessions yet, but these look like keepers:

  • 10 Things We’ve Learned at 37signals
  • Accessible Rich Media
  • Creating Findable Rich Media Content
  • What Teens Want Online & On Their Phones
  • GTD for Startups: Getting Things Done in the Real World
  • Specialization vs. Doing it All
  • Working Over the Web: Managing Distributed Staffs
  • Mobile 2.0: Why the Third Screen is Taking Center Stage

Some of my favorite moments from last year’s interactive conference include Brian Fling’s Everything you Always Wanted to Know About the Mobile Web and Worldchanging 2.0 with Alex Nikolai Steffen.
