hey theres a two part interview with me over at BeatBlogging.org

jay rosen is the supervisor of the deal, so i shouldnt be surprised that the interview turned into a good piece

one minor detail, the top blogs at the LAT increased 10-15 times in the last year, not 4 times. what went up 4 times was the amount of pageviews for all LAT blogs. but who’s counting.

on tap for this evening:

sk smith’s panel Suxors at 5pm
LA Tech party at 6:30pm
diggnation afterwards

this is a pretty great slice of whats going on here

when i told people i was traveling on friday the 13th everyone was alll oooooooo

i didnt think id be in any plane crash. but i should have predicted, however, that maybe i should have been nervous about my hotel sorta screwing me over.

no internet.

hi im here for an internet festival.

and im supposed to be covering it.

hi i just discontinued my air card because verizon was charging me $60 a month and i barely used it cuz theres wifi everywhere you go these days.

except in my hotel room.

a room that costs so much money because of its relative location to sxsw ground zero that i originaly thought it was totally worth it but now im thinking you dont get what you pay for.

at least it has a great view.

good news to its relative location is theres perfectly good wifi here despite the fact that everyone is using cell phones and laptops and a variety of other devices.

i am in the adobe day stage cafe right now because of its relative location to food drink and smaller speakers who get up there for 15 minutes and go for it.

in an hour and a half i need to find some wifi so i can commish a live fantasy draft. and then after that i think im gonna see sk smith moderate a panel called Suxorz.

then i think i will drink heavilly.

hopefully for the right reasons.
