A Friday in SXSW: GlobalPost goes to South by Southwest

GlobalPost

This Friday, GlobalPost's own Stacey Leasca and Nicholas Dynan descended on Austin, TX to explore South by Southwest (SXSW), the conference and festival which showcases the latest music, films and startups.

There were tacos, there was beer, and there was Ghetto Vader.

But there was also valuable advice for young entrepreneurs.

GlobalPost's @AFridayIn Twitter feed showcases the voices and personal experiences of our correspondents based around the world each week. A different correspondent takes over the @AFridayIn account each Friday and tweets about his or her travels and daily activities.
