SF Embassy SXSW 2012 here we come! Follow in real time: http://sfembassy.com + http://twitter.com/sfembassy Note: 2010/2011 was on 6th St. Come visit us & check in!

The SF EMBASSY supports over 150 ambassadors during their diplomatic mission to Austin during SXSW 2011. In addition to providing ambassadors a home away from home, outreach efforts include brunches, happy hours, meetups, spontaneous shows, dance parties and more. San Francisco residents travelling to Austin are advised to stay in close contact with SF EMBASSY for the duration of their visit. SF E

MBASSY ambassadors come from dozens of the best companies, startups, non-profits, and creative agencies in San Francisco and the Bay Area, representing Apple, Asana, flickr, Foodspotting, Instagram, Google, Lanyrd, Microsoft, Rdio, SonicLiving, Square, Ticketfly, Twitter, Stitch Labs and many more. We assemble for two higher purposes: to find ways to make the web more useful and fun; and to rock the hell out of SXSW. Our location for 2012 has been updated on this profile.

A margarita and a beer and a shot... all in one gigantic glass. One of the reasons we love you, Texas!

Thanks for rockin' out with us in Austin, Ministers, Ambassadors & friends! Now get some sleep, detox your liver for a few days, and find someone to give you hugs occasionally to ease the withdrawal.

Our friends SomaFM & BAGeL Radio put together a new SomaFM station dedicated to SXSW 2012. It's a completely unofficial channel playing only bands scheduled to play SXSW this year. The music (like the festival itself) is quite eclectic stylistically.

Interspersed with the music are some "SXSW Survival Tips" designed to help newbies, and a few that might be good for veterans as well.

A great way to get ready for SXSW and hear new bands that you'll want to check out in person while in Austin!
