It has been a packed and busy past couple of days.
Wednesday I took the train to New Jersey for a big presentation. Yesterday I was in New York City to spend some time in the office and to have a few meetings. Afterwards we had a great dinner at the Tribeca Hotel which is just […]

I’m sitting on the Acela, headed out for a couple of days of business travel. This trip is more fun then usual as Scott Monty is sitting next to me as he heads into NYC for some meetings of his own.
But, as the miles pass by the window and the train clacks along the tracks […]

Today the idea got thrown out to go looking for the ranch where Charlie Manson and friends hung out. We never did find it, but we did turn around in Trent Reznor’s driveway, hike through a crazy valley and had a great time all around.
We played around with the idea of shooting a music video […]

As I write this, I’m sitting in my hotel room outside of Los Angelas. Crazy that yesterday morning I was in Boston and I’ll be back there tomorrow.
About a year ago, Mark Yoshimoto Nemcoff’s wife sent a bunch of us an e-mail that she was planning a surprise birthday party for him and she’d love […]

I’ve been playing catch up all day on everything that I missed while I was at SXSW. I’m not ready to completely brain dump all my feelings from the week, but I will say that unlike every other conference I go to where there is one major vertical of interest represented, in Austin it was […]

I haven’t completely formulated my thoughts on my time here at SXSW, but I can safely say that it was an event that changes things for me.  Every conference I go to in the future, every speaking engagement I do, every hallway conversation I have I know I’ll look back at these days in Austin.
The […]

SXSW has been an interesting experience so far to say the least. The sheer volume of people and things to do is amazing.
Zach and I shot some great interviews yesterday for SXSW For Newbies. It was great to bump into old friends and new ones in the hallway and get them on camera. I know […]

I’ve learned that before every major conference it helps to post an up to date picture and my vitals to help people find me.
Now, I’m not as cool as Chris Brogan and have a schedule all together. As a SXSW Newbie, I’m going to go with the flow and take the advice given to me […]

I realized last night that I had not taken a photo of Aliza Sherman and myself here in Baltimore. Can you believe I didn’t bring my big camera with me on this trip? Opted for the smaller compact one which I haven’t used in a while and still love.
I took this from the panel after […]

Next week is a big travel week for me. It will really put me to the test on if this whole concept of being a new media nomad works for me or not.
I’m taking the Acela to Baltimore so that I can get more work done then I would on a flight. Plus, I dig […]

I just recorded a seesmic saying good morning, but I still like doing a little writing first thing in the morning.
After talking about it for the past few months I can’t wait to finally get to check out one of these block parties for My Home 2.0. It is going to be cold and possibly […]

Wow this has been a crazy few days

Wednesday night the oil tank runs out and thus no hot water or heat
I wait up for the guy to come and put in some emergency oil and get the furnace going
Thursday morning up at 3:30 am to get into Logan and jump a flight to NYC
Run around […]

When I was young I went to Summer Camp for several summers. You’d see some of the same folks every year and this was the only time of year you saw them. That is how I feel about the Podcast and New Media Expo that I leave for tomorrow. Lots of great friends that I […]

I had kept that I was going to be in the San Francisco area quiet, because I wasn’t sure if I was actually going to get any time down town or not. Plus I flew in yesterday afternoon and am leaving this afternoon after a day full of meetings. So many people I would have […]

Sitting in an airport terminal sure does give one plenty of time to randomly reflect on lots of things. Today finds me in the B Terminal at Logan at one of the little commuter desks. Sure does make for easier surfing. People watching at this ungodly hour sure is fun. Especially the 7 am to […]
