One of the most enjoyable parts of engaging in Social Media for Communications Management has been being able to listen and read about the South by Southwest Music Festival (#sxsw) occurring in Austin, Texas at the moment.
While #sxsw is not only a music festival anymore (a lot of last weeks social media news) it has been the part I have enjoyed the most on twitter because of the instant access to photos, reviews and videos (recorded and streamed). In the past all of this was available a few days or weeks after the event but this week it's felt like it was happening just down the road.
I can see how events like this in future will become truly global with Social Media. For now I'm just enjoying the new music.
For a snapshot have a look at:

Hi Luke - It's interesting now how Twitter is used for a variety of reasons, isn't it? Maybe we won't need to go to concerts in the future, it will be fully available in our homes!
ReplyDeleteThanks Melinda. I was able to watch 3 sets live and free the other day so it's not too far away from stay at home concerts.
