2. “My top conference app is Snapchat, to keep in touch
with my teenagers back home, because I won't have a
chance to talk to them. Snapchat is a surprisingly great
parenting tool. :) “

3. 2. Google Maps
“At SXSW, it isn’t the conference where the action is, but the networking
events. As you’re rushing from one event to the other, the most
invaluable tool is Google Maps – finding those restaurants and bars can
be hard work!”

at, who has checked into which locations, especially

you let your network know where you'll be. You'll be
surprised at the level of engagement when you send
personalized messages in bulk.”

12. “In recent years, I've used twitter and foursquare a ton
at SXSW... ditched email and Facebook... but i'm not
normal. I tend to just go to a place, hang and whoever
comes, comes... instead of chasing the cool kids.“

Hashtags allow me to see trends real-time, and DM
works better than SMS for private conversations with
friends.”
