SXSW Bag Design: SEO

The good news or the bad news first? Let's start with the good news. SEO made it on to the bag design at the incredibly popular SXSW conference. The bad news, it was labeled as being black hat.

Danny Sullivan shared a picture of the SXSW bag design on his Google+ page. It was illustrated by @jessicahagy.

As you can see, one of the many circles, describing the content at SXSW is "SEO." With an arrow pointing to "Black Hatters."

At least SEO made it on the map?
