It’s SXSW Time Again

PP Voting Open 1

As many of you know last year’s SXSW changed my life. I know, we often say things are “life changing” when at best they are just good. But winning the Pepsi Refresh Challenge, hosting a nonprofit web thingy for Whatgives!?, and the core conversation I facilitated honestly changed me in many ways.

Last year’s core conversation was such a success I thought I would just do it again. Why I like this format is it is not about me, we all join in the conversation to learn from each other. And when I say ‘success’ people were standing in the halls trying to get in. But more importantly the information that was shared was beyond amazing. I should have recorded the session, which I hope to do this year.

A Conversation About Social Change Through Social Media is anything and everything you want it to be. This conversation is for you so please vote!

Crowdsourcing the Corporate/ Nonprofit Partnership. Who Wins? Chris Noble knows his stuff. This panel will answer all the questions about the popular vote contests.

Nonprofits and Free Agents in A Networked World Beth Kanter is brilliant and has a huge heart. Probably no one other person has impacted my life this last year as much as Beth.  Anything she does is a must attend.

Support the Friends of SOBCon – Vote For Their SXSW 2011 Panels Liz Strauss is one of my heroes. Another brilliant woman with a huge heart that has impacted my life. I am honored to be part of the SOBCon family.

Foodie’s Guide to SXSW Panel Picking Who doesn’t like food! Babette has supported InvisiblePeople.tv from day one. Again, another brilliant woman that has impacted my life.  I support anything she does, which is rather easy since it’s always about good food!

If I missed your panel please forgive me. I have limited time on this road trip and have not really searched the choices like I should. Please yell at me on twitter and I’ll do my best to vote.
