Jason H. Parker Who's going to be attending SXSWi this year? I, regrettably, will be unable to attend. However, I'd like to get a feel for who in the Brazen Community will be there! There's planning on the horizon for a great event where you can share your SXSW experience and expertise with those of us (like me) who are unable to attend. Reply to this post!

Michael Diliberto It seems like SXSWi 2010 just ended, but yet SXSWi 2011 starts in 61 days from right now! I can't wait to see the old friends and meet new people in Austin this year. I'm assuming Brazen is planning another get together as in 2010?

Philip Goetz Plan a Brazen SXSW party? This looks like a good idea. I missed the one in 2010 but I was at Ryan's panel. What's needed? A location? Some gear?

Regina Twine Is there a must read book list for SXSW? I feel like there are always books that EVERYONE should have read before they go to a networking event like this. Any recommendations? #sxsw

76 weeks ago from SXSW

Olga Garcia: Yes! Absolutely read "Never Eat Alone" by Keith Ferrazzi. He has a wealth of knowledge about how to network without the networking. A great read :)

Best advice I can give is to know where you are right now, know what kind of work you want to do and know what types of people you want to meet. Be as specific and focused as you can. If you don't know what you want to do you can seriously throw a stone and hit anyone and then come up with 3 horrible business plans with them.

Michael Nguyen This is really a shot in the dark, but I'm going to SXSW Interactive 2011 and it'll be my first time. I'm going solo and looking forward to meeting lots of cool people and experiencing such a large event, but definitely not looking forward to the cost of the trip so far, even with such early bookings. This is a shot in the dark, but if there's any solo like-minded SXSW travelers who might be open to splitting a room or an apartment, please connect with me.

Ryan Paugh Realistically how many panels and keynotes do you end up attending each year at SXSW? Personally I get too caught up with hanging out with people I want to network with to make it to enough panels and get my money's worth. I actually talked to a bunch of people who are just planning to go to Austin during SXSW to hang out and see friends. Anyone else plan on doing this? The Convention Center is so noisy and if you're planning on doing more networking than anything else, maybe it makes sense.

Ryan Paugh: I guess it's difficult to network if you don't have a SXSW badge because so many of the parties require a badge. That's true.

That was my plan at last year's event, but I ended up having more fun sneaking into film-related events.

Rebecca Thorman Hi all! Fellow Brazen members and I have a panel proposal for SXSW and we'd love your vote! We're going to be talking about Gen Y women. The title is "Women will lead Gen Y - what will men do?" Vote here >> http://panelpicker.sxsw.com/ideas/view/6541 - we're going to reconcile the differences between research and real-life experience, and it promises to be a great discussion! Also, if you're proposing a panel, link it up and I'll give you a thumbs-up as well. Thanks in advance!!

Meghan Skiff 2011 hotel recommendations? My SXSW roomies and I made our reservations a little late last year and ended up staying at the Doubletree Guest Suites on W 15th St. It was perfectly lovely, but I think we'd like to snag something a little bit more centrally located this year. Any recommendations or advice?

The best part is, the founder is a friend of mine that is a brazen young entrepreneur:
