We've made it even easier to add yourself to our SXSW Interactive attendee directory - just retweet this and let your friends know that you'll be at the festival.
Going to SXSW Interactive? RT this to add yourself to @lanyrd's attendee list and see who else is going! austin2013.lanyrd.com/-/attendees?rt #SXSWi #SXSW

Our attendee directory is a key part of our offering for this year's SXSW Interactive: a searchable directory of everyone we know is going, with filters to just see the speakers or even see which of your Twitter contacts will be there (signin required).
The more people we have listed, the more useful the directory gets - so this year we've come up with a new way to add yourself to the list that requires even less effort than signing in with Twitter and clicking the "I'm attending" button.
Simply retweet this tweet from your Twitter account and our cunning box of tricks will create you a profile on Lanyrd and add you to the list of attendees for this year's conference. You can sign in later on to customise your profile, get panel recommendations and build a custom schedule for this year's event.

Any thought of generalizing this as a feature other event organizers to use?

We've written it to be generic, so yes, that's definitely something we can do. Drop support@ a line if you have a particular event you'd like to try it at.

We'd like to try that for @epiconference - it's only a wee London thing in September but we'd be happy to try it out if that was of vague interest to you...
