There's only one thing that could get me back to do the Longhorn Half-Ironman again. If my brother called up and said, "Why don't we do it together?" He did.
There was a long pause of several weeks between the call and the registration. I think we were each feeling the other one out on level of seriousness. Yesterday, he registered. I manned up and registered as well.
I knew it would happen and that's why I started training a couple of weeks ago. I seem a lot more sore than I did the last time I trained for this race. I can really tell I took last winter easy.
Yesterday, I ran five miles in the heat to start to get acclimated. All I can say is thank God for Barton Springs. The 68-degree water is heaven for a dip and cooldown after summer runs.
Workouts for the day: (AM) 5K run, 1000 yard easy swim. (PM) weight machine circuits + 1 hour bike.

SXSW: Beyond Aggregation- Finding the Web's Best Content
Hard to grade this one. It did suffer from being a panel, where the panelists are cautious and guarding their answers. I'll have to review the audio clip to see if there's really anything there.
Updates:
10:45 audience questions.
10:43 Serching within records by pasting into Google.com/cse
10:41 check out Post Rank and Regulator. Also Twitter real-time search in Google. Maybe an install?
10:32 people ditching this panel. room still full. these panelists are smart but not giving it up. Spoiled yesterday with Gary Vaynerchuk spilling his sole onstage.
10:29 There's a listing feature in FriendFeed that allows this panelist to group discussions and filter.
10:18 It's a good thing I'm recording the audio of this session as one of the panelist is spewing tech speak so fast I can't tell what he's saying.
10:16 A little slow this morning getting my tools going. Yoga session a few minutes ago released an energy channel that has my head tingling.
Room Hilton A
Monday, March 16th 10:00 am - 11:00 am
RSS aggregation has reduced the massive ocean of Web content into something more manageable, but we are still left overloaded with information and manual searching. This panel will explore new avenues for finding the Web's best content, and how this more intelligent Web will affect major media companies, online publishers and consumers. We have confirmed Marshall Kirkpatrick of ReadWriteWeb as a moderator. Marshall Kirkpatrick VP Content Dev, ReadWriteWeb

SXSW: From Flickr and Beyond: Lessons in Community Management
Ok presentation. Maybe a grade of B.
Updates
Good advice to focus on the comment and the specific reasons why it was removed. "You're free to repost you comment without the line, 'I'm going to hunt you down and kick your ass.'"
4:16 As with last presentation, one must engage within the community. This means you have to comment on other sites, post information, share, blah, blah, blah that we know should happen but we rarely do. It seems to be successful there is a need to focus on a smaller and smaller niche so that it's a recognized community. Bonzai tree photography in black and white of trees 4 - 8 inches with pointed leaves and roots exposed. Niche enough? Thinking..........
4:04 Flickr. Value in knowing when to be quiet when you recognize when "you know someone is digging a hole to Crazytown."
4:03 remove content with transparency in the process.
4:00 This proving to be a difficult area for companies to deal with. Stressful for employees dealing with the haters/trolls.
3:30 HOW DO THINGS CHANGE GOING FROM A SMALL COMPANY TO A LARGER COMPANY? Metafilter: smaller means everyone are in agreement on content but when growth happens it's difficult to appease everyone and policies are created. Etsy: People get less forgiving as growth happens.

SXSW: Designing the Future of The New York Times
Grade F for FAIL. This was a standing room only crowd in a Hilton ballroom. They promoted the panel as to where they are going in the next couple of years. Instead they did a classic bait and switch and talked about themselves and history and design. Dang. I think I was most disgusted with the comment that a newspaper's disposability was an asset. Hello, does "Green Movement" cause any bells to go off in your head?
He also said that information doesn't change in the newspaper's content. Once printed that's it, it's done and somehow he eluded to digital content changing all the time.
Listening to these two I get the feeling I'm watching a cartoon in my head where two cavemen are discussing how they made fire with flint shards and dried moss. These guys are toast and they know it. They don't know what the answer is or the NYTimes would be making millions instead of losing money.
As has been suggested with the U.S. automakers, I think these cavemen corporations need to be dismantled and reassembled.
It's sad because I once loved the NYTimes. Ever since the content became questionable (Vitamin Pills: A False Hope?) a few weeks ago did I look away for alternatives.
Updates
5:25 I'm out. I can't take it any longer.
5:20 History and now design. Not a word about where they will go in the next two years as they hemorrhage as much cash as a Big Three automaker. I think they need to be saved as well. Jeez.
5:10 Still history now it's the other guys turn. He's showing really old personal Web sites. Can't. Last. Much. Longer.
5:00 Interesting. They're starting with a personal history. Starting with the past to lead to the future? Oh God, he's going all the way back to his college days of print. Must. hold. on.

5:31p. Now on to Brain Traffic with Kristina Halvorson. She mentioned the word "awesome" way too many times. Hey! try intreaging instead. Now she's sounds like a Web 1.0 presentation circa 1996.
5:27p: Amit Gupta gets it with his Jelly project and photojojo. Good sharing. Does cool social experiments. Good tricks to monetize.
5:24p: showing Get Satisfaction site. Doesn't relate.
5:17p: showing the bike hugger site.

DESCRIPTION
There are no cheat codes for community. No Charles Atlas shortcuts to make your pet project the one to rule them all. Want people to think you're awesome? Be awesome. This panel promises a bullshit-free look at how you might tune out the jibber jabber, tune in to those who matter, put your head down and make your online service a little bit more epic each day. We'll dissect Bike Hugger, Photojojo, Metafilter, and other examples of Web charm for what *you* can do. Today, and tomorrow. And the day after. Which is how you will become what you want to be.
SXSW: The Ecosystem of News
Grade B+. Good sharing of information. I see that more with a single person presenting sometimes. Panels need several things to make it good. they have to be in sync and have a good moderator. This presentation was solo and the presenter was good.
Updates:

DESCRIPTION
It is now conventional wisdom that the newspaper as we have come to know it for last century is over, or will be in a matter of years. The question is whether we're going to spend our time grieving over the loss, or whether we're going to use this moment as an opportunity to invent something even better. We're inevitably moving from the "paper of record" model to a something more distributed, a news ecosystem, but that doesn't mean we can't consciously define the shape of that system. So let's figure out what values we want to preserve from the older newspaper paradigm, and what values we want to improve upon -- and then let's go build it!
Get Ready, Get Set.....Go SXSW
Overall, I grade this panel as a C+. Really great stuff wasn't shared. They didn't go the extra mile to share the secrets.
Updates
2:50 pm. There was a great comment on metrics and costs. I'll have to review the audio later and repost.
2:40 pm. Outsourcing is now called "International Third-party Augmentation"
2:30 pm. Taking questions.
2:25 pm. Morrey arranges DIGG windows as to not see the comments because they make him mad.
2:19 pm. How to monetize. The Skittles experiment. Mob mentality. Users suck when they try to take over a site.
2:13 pm. Panel already out of hand. Having crowd noise battle with the next ballroom.
I'm in. For those of you still wanting to obtain a badge, the combo is 36-12-10 but don't all of you try to use it at one time. You'll jam the box.

DESCRIPTION
It's been a few years since YouTube and Flickr have dropped on the scene. Now almost everyone you know is creating content and posting it online. With the idea of User Generated Content now proven and the infrastructure in place where are we today? The same old questions keep popping up. "Where do you make money?" "How do you stand out?" and "Where do you find the time?" The panel will take a look at these questions and others as we explore the ever changing landscape of User Generated Content. This panel is sponsored by Ideagin.com
