A sex educator, a games developer and a grad student walk into a bar. Bartender says, "What is this, some kind of joke?"
All right, so maybe the Game Developers Conference and SXSW Interactive are not, technically, bars. But over the next 10 days, interactive media wonks will converge upon San Francisco and Austin, Texas, and I have it on good authority that taverns, saloons and pubs will figure prominently.

And yes, the phrase "uncanny valley" gets used.
