When the Geeks Go Marching In: New Orleans and SXSW Interactive

Congrats to the World Champion New Orleans Saints after their thrilling 31-17 Super Bowl win over the Indianapolis Colts. And, speaking of the Crescent City, be sure to check out the "Uprising Tide: Inciting Online Communities Into Offline Movements" panel, scheduled for Saturday, March 13, at 3:30 pm.

This session will explore how some unlikely instigators from New Orleans put their tech community on the map with little more than passion, a bus, T-shirts, and some duct tape. This panel promises to teach you how to create an organic net-roots movement that upends traditional power structures and galvanizes your community. Sounds like a winner to us!
