Tuttle2Texas

A small group of members of London's Tuttle Club (http://tuttleclub.wordpress.com) will be taking the long way round to this year's SXSW interactive festival (SXSWi) in Austin, TX. We'll be starting off in Boston, MA in the first week in March and then taking the train to NYC, Washington DC, Atlanta and New Orleans before driving with friends from NOLA over to Austin in time for the SXSWi opening on March 12th.

In each of the cities we visit, we'll be holding human-scale conversation spaces with local businesses, institutions and many of the interesting and influential people we know from the social web. The focus of these conversations will be to explore the similarities and differences between British, Canadian and US cultures, separated as we are by our common language.

We will be writing and creating social media content throughout the trip. In addition we'll be pulling together a 45-60 minute documentary film to release & show on our return to the UK. At the moment our plan is to continue West from Austin, finishing our trip in Long Beach, CA where there is also a regular Tuttle Club meetup.
