Update: We've learned of more D.C. technologists heading to Austin and have added their names and new events to the post. (3/13/15, 3:55 p.m.)

Before the great migration begins for the SXSW (March 13 to 22), here are a couple of resources for local folks interested in keeping it local in Austin.
(If you’re staying here, though, check out our #notatSXSW party on March 16 at 7:00 p.ma., at the Irish Whiskey Public House.)
