Three Night Stand
March 7, 2008
My laundry isn’t finished, my bags are not packed, and the city is expecting an ice storm to roll in at around, oh, right when I’m scheduled to take off. The adventure hasn’t even begun and I’m already rolled up in the fetal position on my still-unclean hardwood floors.
I would, however, like to share something besides fear and whiny angst. A good while ago, I began talking to this kid Richie. He was an awesome blogger back then. Now he’s just the best designer in the world. Loser.
As it turns out, we were both scraping together the necessary funding to attend SXSW for the first time. Richie, being intelligent, innovative, and out of his mind, decided on Monday to throw together a website. It would pull and compile our individual blog posts, tweets, movies, pictures, and everything else pertaining to two clueless and young SXSW attendees. He designed, coded, and published it. I picked out the background pattern. We’re both exhausted.
It’s called threenightstand.com, and I’m excited about how it’s turned out. If you’re interested, it’s also running as a podcast, downloadable through iTunes. As we’ll both have a ton to say, I’m sure, the goal is that it provides a decent window into our “different” conference experience.
I hope you like it.

It’s so cute! I love it already and there’s still a lot more to come!

Ugh, I hate it when two very talented people join forces to create wanton awesomeness. Congratulations, Rich and Rachel, I hope you’re happy with yourselves!

I think one of my professors, Charlie O’Donnell is going to SXSW, too…
Not to be random or anything.

Don’t forget to check out Black Moth Super Rainbow while you are down there. Father Hummingbird is one of their keyboardists and you met him at the release party.
