Live Diggnation Crowd Surfing at #SXSW

This is video from the live Diggnation at Stubbs BBQ in Austin during SXSW 2011. At the end of the show, Kevin and Alex thought it would be fun to do a little crowd surfing. They enticed some of the crew from TWiT namely Leo Laporte, Brian Brushwood and Lisa Bettany to join in the fun. David Prager of Diggnation also participated. This is shot from inside the crowd. As you'll see, I was close to the action and even helped support Leo, Alex, Brian and Lisa as they surfed through the crowd. That explains all the camera shaking.

Along with Diggnation, Brian Brushwood entertained the crowd with "stupid" (as he put it) stunts to break world records and DJ Mike Relm did a set for an appreciative crowd. All I can say is Mike is incredible. I'll post more of the Diggnation show and a clip of Mike Relm doing his thing in a follow post. Enjoy!

#iPad2 Unboxing At The #SXSW Apple Store

The line was crazy so I decided not to wait for an iPad2 today but I did see the first live unboxing in front of the SXSW Apple Store here in Austin, Texas. The video features Brian Brushwood and LIsa Bettany of everyone's favorite geeky tech network, TWiT. The line went around the block and I expect they will probably sellout tonight.
