This week's favorite is Austin. Ive been there a couple times for SXSW and had a blast. I imagine its a little different at other times of the year, but it seems like a pretty rad place. Some of the pros for Austin (illustrated by emily's amazing photographs from SXSW 2005 and 2006):

Delicious food, including Amy's Ice Cream (mmmm....guinness ice cream)


Live Music Capital of the WORLD!


bike friendly (they dont all have horns)


affordable housing (all this for $100 a night!)


even if the toilets are sometimes possessed


All of this, of course, is subject to change.
