\"SXSW\"<\/a> UPDATED on Monday, March 15th with links to the latest stories: <\/strong>The GigaOM crew is out in full force at this year’s South by Southwest, reporting on all that is nearest and dearest to our readers’ hearts — such as an in-depth look at the privacy<\/a> discussions<\/a> taking place from Liz Gannes, including one featuring social technology theorist Clay Shirky’s thoughts<\/a> on information sharing, and from Liz Shannon Miller, news of a new embeddable player to help independent web video producers monetize their content<\/a> and a look at the upcoming set-top, Popbox, from Sybas<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Stacey reports on on a SXSW panel discussion focused on open source and custom software tools that are helping companies go web scale<\/a> and Paul Bonanos details the unveiling of music service MOG’s mobile applications<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Need help figuring out what to do and who or what to see? These two 10-point cheat sheets<\/a> will help you navigate everything from the sessions to the parties to the weather<\/a>. Austin is filled with tech startups, so get away from the maddening crowds and check out some of them on their home turf<\/a>. And since the one must-have accessory for SXSW attendees is a smartphone, here’s a way to use it to pay for your bar tab<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Speaking of mobile, the stress on AT&T’s network last year<\/a> rendered many a SXSW 2009 attendee’s phone useless, so this year, Ma Bell wasn’t taking any chances<\/a>. Word on the Texas city’s streets is that it’s paying off.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But the mobile focus this year is centered around two things: device-wise, it’s all about the iPad<\/a>; category-wise, it’s location-based services<\/a>. Foursquare, which launched at last year’s SXSW<\/a>, is definitely not the only game in town<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And for those of you that couldn’t make it to Austin, here’s how you can keep up with all the activities — yes, even the parties! — online<\/a>.
\n Stacey also has a good piece<\/a> on a SXSW panel discussion focused on open source and custom software tools that are helping companies go web scale.<\/p>\n
