Meryl has pictures online from SXSW, in case you’re tired of waiting for mine.

Home at last. Well, at work right now. Lots to say. Too tired to say it. Will post more later. And photos. Photos too. I promise!

Just a note to say “Hi!” As Mike noted over at SXSW Blog, a huge group of members of the blog community are sitting here at the Omni in Austin – the hotel lobby bar. Mike had his iBook with him and there is Airport access available, so I am taking advantage of it. Jay just told me I am a complete geek because I am sitting here at a bar blogging … but you know, I keep quoting Chris Pirillo – “I’m a geek, not a nerd…”

This iBook is pretty sweet as far as the look and the fact that it is super light, but I don’t like this keyboard – it has an odd touch to it. Over time I could get used to it, but since it’s not mine that won’t happen!

I’m starving right now. Absolutely famished. And all I want is a good HOME cooked meal. Cooked by me. Made just like I want it. It wouldn’t even matter what it was, as long as no French Fries were involved. I guess I’ll have to head to TGIFriday’s in the hotel lobby and get something to eat … but I wish I was cooking it myself. And that it was a lot cheaper then that will cost me. Oh well… After that, it’s the DFWBlogs party. I didn’t get to go to the Houston blogs party last week because I was busy getting ready for SXSW – but now that I am here in Austin I am going to the Dallas/Ft. Worth blog party. Ironic.

Two things I have seen a lot of today: Handsprings with Keyboards and iMacs. Lots & lots of iMacs. And G4s. And G4 Titaniums. And only 2-3 other PCs. Wow. I’m seriously shocked over how many Apple symbols I keep seeing all over the place. Heather Hesketh & I were sitting here earlier on our PCs and there was a larger crowd across from us, all with their Macs – and we joked that we were in the PC Ghetto! They are light, they are cute, they are so sweet … but damn it, my Dell has 8 hours of battery power! (Oh, and it weighs 80lbs. *sigh*)
