doing strange things with electricity
Dorkbot13 at SxSW Coverage
This year’s SxSW Dorkbot was a roaring success, I hope you were all able to make it – most of you must have because according to the SXSW folks at the door, we had somewhere in the ballpark of 1,300 people pass through our gate.
I want to extend a huge thank you to our sponsors:
- Amaze entertainment http://www.amazeent.com/
- IGDA http://www.igda.org/
- SXSW Interactive http://2008.sxsw.com/interactive/
- and most of all Make Magazine http://www.makezine.com/
THANK YOU! Without our sponsors, the event on Saturday wouldn’t have been in any way possible.
A little bit of press is starting to trickle in

It sounds like everyone had a good time! If you have come across any news articles please forward them on to us at dorkbotaustin@dorkbot.org or post them to the blabber list and we’ll put them up on our recap page when we finish it
If you have pictures (or video – we haven’t been able to dig any up yet) please, post them to the blabber list, we’d love to see them!
If you have any feedback or suggestions about what we could have done better, please let us know! Some of the presenters have already mentioned a few things and we appreciate the feedback.
Lastly, we still have some shirts available.

Rather than hold onto them, we’re going to try to pass them on to some of other Dorkbot groups in the US, so they might not last. If you’re interested in one, let us know and we can save one for you, shirts are $17 ($15 if you can pick them at an austin dorkbot event)
Thanks everyone!
Oh, I almost forgot – Dorkbot 14 is scheduled for April 10th, mark your calenders!
