Summary

Matthew Prince from CloudFlare mentions that a group of them will be attending SXSW, an interactive, music, and film festival in Austin. They have been supporting SXSW for some time by ensuring the panel picker website stays online during high traffic periods. Several startups launching at SXSW are using CloudFlare to maintain their websites' availability. Prince hints that there might be a new Twitter or Foursquare emerging from this year's festival, and encourages other startups attending SXSW to sign up for CloudFlare to ensure their services stay online.
