The SXSW People

There are forty-one people on this list. I met them all, and had at least one conversation with them. The conversation may have been short, silly or mundane, but it was a conversation. If I talked to you and your name isn’t on this list, well, I’m a jerk (my bad memory is a jerk anyway). Let me know, and I’ll add you.
