Tuesday, March 13 Events: Accelerator Finalists

accelerator2012logoforweb_half-column.pngSXSW Interactive is March Madness Austin style, with activities beginning Friday, March 9 and continuing through the end of the day on Tuesday, March 13 . Although first day events are typically strong (be sure to catch the feature presentation from Wikinomics author Don Tapscott), we tend to save the strongest elements for the last day of festivities. Said another way, if you aren't' staying through the end of the day on Tuesday, March 13, then you are missing out some of the event's coolest content!
