Domain village attracts domainers and SXSW attendees.

Today is day three of Sedo Domain Village in downtown Austin. I spent the afternoon there yesterday with a handful of other domain peeps. Lots of SXSW-goers stopped by for free lunch, free slushes, free coffee, free beer, free frozen yogurt and even free tattoos. Here are some pictures:

The bar served up coffee.club, donuts, and German beer. Radix gave out free slushes. The line grew really long following the slushed were spiked with liquor in the afternoon.
