Those who live here, know. Once you move to Austin, you never leave. That's because there is so much to do. People are constantly discovering new places to hang out, new bands to see, and new groups to meet with.

This site is a reference to help discover what may be your next favorite Austin Experience. By no means do we plan to replicate the hard work done by local web sites with the same goal. In fact, I'll supply a list of links to sites that keep track of local events, news, etc. This can be your starting point.

AustinExperience is produced by Jason Massey. The purpose of the site is two fold. First and foremost, it is to share information about some of the interesting things that people can do around Austin. That may include soaking in the rays at Barton Springs Pool or checking out a local band that has a lot of promise. I also want to provide information about organizations that will either enhance your experience living in Austin or enhance the lives of others living here. Hopefully, they can do both.

The second purpose of this site is to provide a real forum where I can continue to learn and experiment with online media. My occupation requires that I produce mostly print based materials. I am working to move toward an electronic medium. As I learn, the pages contained within this site will continue to improve. Some of the pages were created while taking an Introduction to HTML course through ACC. They were coded by hand using Notepad. You'll probably be able to figure out which pages they are.

Your feedback and tips are appreciated. Send me an email if you find anything that needs improvement, updating, etc.

The site is created using Adobe Photoshop, Adobe ImageReady, and Macromedia Dreamweaver. I hope to include some Flash content soon.
