  • SXSW Interview: Brian Clark from Copyblogger.com

    Brian clarks writes one of the most well known blogs in the world. But everyone wants to talk about Copyblogger with him. We decided to talk Twitter. Brian, for the record, is one of the nicest, most approachable guys around.

  • SXSW Day 2 Thoughts

    Hey guys- Fantastic first day at SXSW yesterday. I did no less than 6 interviews in the b5media sponsored Bloghaus. Met with dozens of people. It was literally the best conference day I’ve ever had. This morning, my neck hurts as I spent my second night literally camping under the stars at the “b5 ranch”.…

  • SxSW vs. CxCC

    So have any of you noticed a recent trend on Twitter?  It seems that our ultra-friendly, tech community has temporarily (well, hopefully temporarily) divided.  We are now those at SxSW and those NOT at SxSW.  I, unfortunately, fall in the NOT at SxSW camp.  I have requested that SxSW folks start their tweets with “œSxSW…

  • Ebb and Flow; Blogging During a Conference; Bits and Pieces

    During conferences, I think it makes the most sense to blog in a format that Jason Calacanis made “special”. Stream of consciousness blogging. In other words, during conferences, I don’t have the time to fully develop thoughts like I would normally do to post usual content here. But that doesn’t mean there’s not a lot…

  • SXSW Guest Posting

    In just over 36 hours, I’ll be boarding a flight to Austin, TX. This will be my second trip to SXSW – last year was a mixed bag for me but then the whole trip started out on a bad note and it through the rest of the week into a funk. This year, I’m…

  • The Official Unofficial SXSW Playlist

    I know there’s probably only one of you that remembers back when I was doing custom playlists on request. Those were the days. I should revive that game. At any rate, a lot of geeks like myself are heading down to Austin next month for SXSW Interactive, possibly the Mecca of all web conferences. In…

  • The Technosailor World Tour

    A bunch of you have been asking if you would be seeing me at SXSW. The answer is yes. It’s been a little unclear in what capacity I would be attending but those questions have been answered. b5media is sending several of our staff who have not previously attended in an official capacity. This is…

  • More of the Same in 2008; Or: We ain't no Seesmic

    It’s Monday morning and I’m sitting here at Reagan National Airport awaiting a flight to Toronto. This is my last business trip of 2007 and… when I return home on Wednesday, I’m only looking at another two business days before I entirely knock off for the year. I’ll probably blog, but no b5media (if I…

  • The 2007 Travel Awards

    I have never traveled in my life as much as I have this past year. I have taken 12 trips and I think I’m done for the year – though I do think I may need a Toronto trip before Christmas. At any rate, I can look back at various trips and point to them…

  • BlogNetworkCamp SXSW

    Because we like camelcasing things, I’d like to extend an invite to anyone who plans to be at SXSWi to join b5media, 451Press, Random Shapes and (add other blog networks) to BlogNetworkCamp. Jeremy has kicked things off with a little background and I’ve posted the event at Upcoming.org where you can RSVP. Potential Topics to…
