SXSW Interactive has grown so much in the last decade, it feels harder to sort out what to go to and what to skip, but this year I feel there are a few that are ones that can't be missed:

Yesterday, CrisisCamps met in 12 cities across the country to continue work started the week previous in the first CrisisCamps after the Haitian earthquake. Crisis Commons had its origins in discussions by participants in Transparency 09 and Government Camp 2.0 in 2009, as a way for people with technology skills to get together during times of humanitarian or political crisis and help out with their skills and social networking.

In contrast to last year's mellow SXSW Interactive Mixer in SF, the 2010 event was high-paced and, quite literally, packed into Slim's at 11th and Folsom.

too crowded for a good picture
