Twitter to be featured at SXSW

New favorite app Twitter is set for success at this year’s SXSW Interactive:

Twitter has been selected as a finalist for the SXSW Web Awards. The judges think we “revolutionize the power of publishing.” We hope we win! There’s also a People’s Choice category and we’re allowed to ask folks to vote for us. If you have a couple minutes you can help us take home the prize!

Speaking of SXSW, the conference organizers were kind enough to work with us to do something they’ve never done before. They’re letting Twitter take over the hallways. Everyone knows that the hallways at conferences are always brimming with action and this year Twitter is going to reflect some of that action back out with a couple big plasma monitors showing Twitter updates.

If you haven’t messed with Twitter, you should. It’s deceptively simple and addicting fun.
