I love South By South West.  Hands down it is the biggest and best social media and technology conference I have ever attended.  With more than 24,000 at the event which includes three different mini-conferences:  Interactive, Movies, and Music, it is amazing.  A gathering of thousands of like-minded individuals who are funky, fun, and talented.
