SXSW Discount for AIGA Members...
AIGA Members receive a discount registration ($95 USD) for the 2004 SXSW Interactive conference until January 10th. Details are available through the AIGA Austin web site, though you don’t have to be an Austin Chapter Member to participate.
If you’ve thought about becoming an AIGA member, this is the perfect opportunity. Also, if you are considering a Gold or Platinum Pass, register for the Interactive pass discount and then upgrade through the South by Southwest web site.
This same discount was available last year, though it wasn’t promoted very well — I found out about it a few days too late — so help spread the word this year. All participants must respond by January 10th.
