***This is the first of a series of guest blog posts by Rick Mahn and Albert Maruggi, who are taking a Tungle-sponsored roadtrip to SxSW and scheduling meetups using Tungle.me along the way.***
It’s official, Social Media Breakfast - Minneapolis/St. Paul has two members going on an official SMB SXSW 2010 Roadtrip. It’s been a long and winding road to be able to make this happen, and planning continues as I write this.
We’ll be stopping in multiple cities on our way south from Minneapolis to Austin, looking to meet with many fine folks in the heartland of the USA. Our planned stops are listed below, with links to event pages. If you can make it to a planned meetup please RSVP, though all meetups will be no-cost (that’s free to you and me). ;-)
Our trip is sponsored by Tungle.me - a great scheduling service that finds free time on your calendar and your fellow meeting attendee's calendars to help make meetings happen. We're using Tungle.me to set up the initial meetings with local organizers on our roadtrip. You can see what it looks like by checking my availability at http://tungle.me/rickmahn.
Itinerary
- Des Moines, IA - March 10th at the Racoon River Brewing Company (RSVP)
- Omaha, NE - March 10th at the Caffeine Dream (RSVP)
- Kansas City, MO - March 11th at the Kansas City Cafe (RSVP)
