SXSW 2011: A bird’s-eye view of all you #Winners

admin

In addition to being the official nerd spring break, SXSW is also the defacto annual snapshot that captures our collective identity as a tech subculture. What’s in, what’s out, what’s cool, what’s lame, and where are we all going next.

Every year is marked by its own winners, losers, icongraphy, and memes. One thing that popped out at us as we were combing through the SXSW Hashable data was how much your Hashing captured both the spirit and the details of the conference. The data truly emerged as an awesome snapshot of the shared experience. From what we could tell, SXSW 2011 was kitschy, it was cool – and it was totally bananas.

So with that, we present to you our first annual Hashable SXSW Infographic – it’s everything we learned about you (and therefore ourselves) as you Hashed it up out there. Thanks for being so awesome everybody, and for keeping Austin weird!

    Thanks for the fun infographic. Was happy to bring the Hashable hustle for Bizzy. Met tons of great people at SXSW.

    Love this! I think it has to be one of the most accurate depictions of what really went down at nerd spring break. Awesome job!
