Photo by JW WalthalIn honor of this week's registration deadline for SXSW V2V we have put together a list of the top ten reasons you should register now for this brand new SXSW event in sunny Las Vegas, Nevada.

10. You will be at ground zero when the next technological breakthrough gets funded because of V2Venture. Who knows what crazy new gadget, technology, or app will be the next big thing? You will! Because you will have been there at its beginning.

9. Who doesn't want to go to Las Vegas in August? We found a place even hotter than Texas! Let's hear it for amazing air conditioning! Seriously, Las Vegas is "hot" in more ways than just the temperature.

8. You will become part of an exciting new community at its very beginning, helping to shape it and make it your own. And in ten years from now, when no one knows why everyone wears red on the second day of V2V... you will! Because you just might be the person who started that tradition.

7. Because V2V is SXSW in microcosm, there will be tons of opportunities for real face-to face interactions with some of the most creative minds in the digital landscape. Inspiration abounds! Come get some, and share yours.

6. You can ask an Elvis impersonator for startup capital, and when he gives it to you, you can say "Thankyouverymuch".

Check back right here tomorrow as we reveal Part 2 of the TOP TEN REASONS you need to be at SXSW V2V this August.
