- Cab drivers who turn their radios to NPR
- Live music in the airport
- The beer
- Random strangers telling you how much they enjoy living in Austin
- Locally owned shops in the airport
- Running into Nick Douglas, Gabe Rivera, Kathy Sierra and various other geeks in the airport
A big highlight for me, one completely unconnected with SXSW, was hanging out with my friend Bob Fleischman – a guy I’ve known on and off since we were about 2 years old. Bob relocated to Austin a few years ago. He’s a big music fan and swears he’s seen more live music since moving to Austin than in his entire pre-Austin existance.
Despite all of this technology, it’s still nice to spend some face time with old friends.
