SXSW- Anita Santa-Coloma

I chose to start of with the inside workings of funnyordie.com because I am a huge fan. It really is incredible how everything is turning to the web. This website was created to have clever sketches that sometimes support a cause. Funnyordie.com has been very successful as they incorporate celebrities in their sketches. They now have a series on HBO and are soon making films. This website is hilarious and definitely worth checking out.

I also found Imageenering the Future to be very interesting. This panel compares our digital technology to that of Star Trek which is very interesting to see how a lot of things that we have now reflect what was projected as the future before.

Taking the grand old party to the twenty first century was also an interesting panel. This is specifically important, because it shows how technology should be embraced by everybody in order to stay ahead. Michael Steele, chairman of the Republican National Committee, has ensured that the Republican party not only caught up to Democrats but surpassed them in technology.
