Lurve from SXSW

Posted February 10th, 2009 by ben

Last night, Andrew and I were humbled and thrilled to learn that Fluther was named a SXSW Web Award Finalist for the upcoming 2009 South by Southwest Interactive conference. Woohoo!

We’ll be there at the award ceremony on March 15th, drinking bubbly and crossing our fingers.

And, of course, this award is for “Community” so it really belongs to all of you. Seriously–we’re nothing without your intellect and lurve.

    Fantastic! Should we wait outside on the red carpet so you’ll have some groupies there? We could all wear FLuther t-shirts!

    I just checked out the competition, I’m sure they are great once you get to know them, but Fluther remains one of the least offensive at first view websites I’ve seen. I know it gets commented on a lot (in a nice way), but the clean design is really friendly when you first get here.

    Too much busy makes my eyes go crazy.

    Oh, and if Daryl Hall shows up again this year and you see him, please scream at him like a fangirl for me.
