Another pseudoSXSW event.

Not unlike this, I again went to a tech event in the midst of Austin's downtown (at Galvanize) while SXSW was underway. It really wasn't a part of South by Southwest it was just downtown amongst all the traffic and craziness. Whatever. It was on Azure web services and hosted by a Rachel Weil and a Paul DeCarlo and in it we created Azure accounts here and then went through this tutorial to get console apps to speak to each other through the cloud. It was called Mission Mars: Fourth Horizon and we were pretending to talk to marooned astronauts on Mars via the IoT.

Bonus: IFTTT is a web-based service that allows for creating chains of conditional statements called applets.
