Willo O’Brien is an independent contractor, based in San Francisco, offering Custom Illustration and Web/Flash/Graphic Design. Austincast.com talks to her about her fab “tees”, social networking, how to get the most out of twitter, and flips through her photos of sxsw on flickr. Hear her answer to my query that Austin is “Bay Area rejects”; and lots of other surprises.

Watch Willo now.

First, I’m working on an hour long instructional video about how to push your video to all the video services with just a few clicks. I’ve got a short preview version that I’ll be pushing to austincast in the next 24 hours. Here are the video communities that I show you how to publish to with a few clicks: youtube, yahoo video, myspace video, metacafe, google video, revver, dailymotion, blip.tv, veoh, crackle, stupidvideos, sclipo, viddler and more.

Second, amazon has started inserting overlay commercials in their ads and I thought I’d take my Lindsay Campbell moblogic.tv video and insert something appropriate. Take it for a test spin and, love it or hate it, get a glimpse of the future of video advertising.

Zadi Diaz is interviewing stars, musicians and interactive panelists at SXSW.

A couple of weeks ago an EPIC-FU episode was featured on the home page of YouTube thanks to the generous selection of their editors. Zadi expected to get a nice amount of views, but never expected the episode to move past 3 million views when all was said and done. In fact, the episode is still compiling about 10-20,000 views per day as of the time of this writing.

He’s a podcaster and twitter maven who works for an email marketing company. It’s about 20 minutes. His blog is davemadethat.com

    On his blog, Dave comments: ” I Uttered the question today of what will become of Twitter if it goes down during SXSW. It was at last year’s SXSWi when Twitter really took off. Assuming that a similar mass of early adopters and trend setters congregates at SXSW this year, it will mean that Twitter will have to stay stable to remain our darling. This will be the event that will either make or break Twitter.”
