SXSW 2009: 60+ Twitter accounts for Portland and Silicon Forest Twitter types
There are a number of folks from Portland and the Silicon Forest headed down to Austin, Texas, this week for SXSW. And while I’ve heard about a number of those folks anecdotally, I thought it might be helpful for all of us if we compiled a definitive list of Twitter accounts, so you can keep tabs on who’s doing what.
(Of course, to keep tabs on who’s doing what where you’ll want to sign up for Shizzow, too.)
So here’s who I have so far. Please comment if I missed you, if I missed someone you know is going, if you just signed up for a Twitter account, or if I added you thinking you were going but you’re not. I’ll make sure to update the post as comments dictate.
The current list of Twitter accounts for Portland or Silicon Forest attendees at SXSW includes:
- Dave Allen
- Scott Andreas
- Anna Atwell
- Andy Baio
Josh Bancroft- Crystal Beasley
- Matt Beck

I’ll see everyone there. @masonwest
Alright, who’s going to make a feed for all of these people’s twitter accounts? and would we want it as an RSS, or a twitter group opml? or can we turn these people into pdxsxsw twitter account?

Boy are there a lot of PDX people heading to Austin. Wonder if I’ll bump into any of them at the airport. @drpotter
We could just all agree to tag our tweets #sxswpdx or some such thing.
I’ll be there! @cvelis
anything besides tagging would be helpful…trying to save characters, and I don’t always remember to tag
;-)
multnomah!
PDX has a posse. :)
Vancity too. I should make a list like this of us!
I’ll be there as a SXSW-1st-timer. See you! @hideshione

RSS feed of all twitter users in the post above. Except Steve Kveton, whose link directs to the twitter homepage.
There are a couple more of us from White Horse – Robin Stevens – @brontestreet and Ami Martin – @amispeak. Also Jala Smith-Huys @embarkcreative.
I’ll be there with Alex H @podcasthotel Williams if I can convince the ECM Execs before tomorrow afternoon that it would be worthwhile to attend! Feel free to Tweet your opinion @earthclassmail, every bit helps ;)
@unclenate
We seriously need to have a pdx-twitter-tech-people-who-couldn’t-go-to-sxsw tweetup. Commiserate. Cry in our beers.
This post does not help me feel any better about not going this year. Enjoy, everyone (especially all those first timers)!
Add yours truly:

Another first-timer SXSW bound! @aplyley
I’ll be tweeting for @substance in addition to my own (@stlandau). Sorry for the duplicate tweets if you follow both!
See y’all in Austin in a few days.
Unfortunately Brittany (@redhooded) and I (@jaacob) had to bail on SXSW this year, but we’ll be following everybody’s tweets!
@jenscott
first timer!!
Have a margarita at Guero’s for me!
