Before I went on the stage at Gnomedex I was beyond terrified. Not because I was going to be in front of people, but because I knew my life was about to change. The pinnacle moment before real change can be very unsettling.
That’s how I feel going into South by Southwest. My life is going to change in a big way. Thing is, I have a feeling many of us will leave Austin transformed by the sheer energy this event has.
On March 13th, 14th and 15th I’ll be hosting a daily nonprofit chat with several of my heroes from 10:30 -11am CST. If you’re in Austin stop by The Beacon, or watch anywhere on WhatGives!? Ustream channel.

March 13th is going to be a big day. Right after the morning show join me for A Conversation About Social Change Through Social Media. Yes, I know I wrote in an earlier post I turn 50. But I was wrong. 15 years sober and I still can’t remember where I parked my car. The good thing is I was wrong in the right direction so I’m still jumping out of a plane sometime in the future.
But the big news I cannot tell you just yet. Something is going to happen at SXSW around 2pm on March 13th that blows my mind. Honest, this will be huge! So make sure to follow me on twitter so you don’t miss a thing.
So many people to thank who are helping to make this happen. Radar Multimedia and Portnoy Media Group for making the live broadcast from the Beacon Lounge possible. Cause Media Group for being AMAZING! I mean, WhatGives!? just fits! Heather Meeker and the Whrrl team for pushing me to submit a panel. And my favorite foodie Babette for adding me with the rest of the ‘cupcakes’, TechZulu for adding me to their picks, and of course the only Christian site that listed me Church Marketing Sucks.
