B-Side's calendaring is an absolute life saver for any fest, especially SXSW, since you can customize your own, see what your overlaps are and print out your own handy schedule. I'd also note on the Fantastic Fest midnight screenings get there super early as well as anything playing at the Ritz. Be sure to go to the Drafthouse karaoke party as well!

I'd add for film folks not sure how to schedule to pick your must-see films only playing once first, then fill in the rest. Or use BSide's Festival Genius to help you figure it out at http://2009.bside.com/sxsw/. Slackerwood is crossposting a film fest survival guide this week.

For days walking around downtown, there is lots of concrete so wear shoes accordingly. Also, an extra pair of shoes to wear works great with all the walking around going on, a new/different pair of shoes can do wonders when switching up every other day, etc., Drink lots of water during the day! Don't forget to charge your cel at night. Best way to keep up is cel as so many networking events, parties, get posted last minute, etc., Be sure and attend pre-SXSWi opening night party and official opening night party. Great way to meet a lot of people you will be running into. If you like Sushi, Kyoto on 4th & Congress has half price sushi between 6:00pm-6:45pm. There is a huge amount of restaurants downtown, most cater more for the dinner crowd, though there is a ton during day for pizza, tacos and light eating. Lots of coffee shops around the convention center w/ free wi-fi. Great post!
