a. I use to be sorta hot. and re: Jewish men, whatever it takes. It is a recession after all ;)
1. I don't have plans to go although I check the site, search for options and pray that my clients will ask me to go
2. Tech-groupie – I absolutely nerd out over tech shows and start-ups – it is all I have known for the past 12 years and I can't get enough.
3. We are 10 minutes out from midnight and I am of course adding my two cents at the 11th hour.

Fingers crossed….

Hey Micah – great to see you in Austin and will be right behind you walking the halls at Web 2.0. Actually our CTO will be with me so I want to intro you. Cool that you have outbrain on your blog. Will ping you later this week.

a) If you are a hot chick who has a thing for fat Jewish men. (kidding! …sort of…)
-- Well since I am a fat white guy who has dated Jewish chicks this might be a scary thing.

1) If you are going to Web20expo (or would if you got the pass)
I would love to go to Web20expo since I have never been. Budgets have been very tight this year but this is a conference I hear is worth attending. The Web 2.0 landscape is shifting and I feel that it is important to be there this year. If I win I will cover the event on behalf of whoever you want and I will pimp lots of Freshbook swag and tell them how much I love being a customer. Plus, I used to live in SF years ago so I can stay at a friends house.

2) If I asked the person that knows you best to describe you with one word, what would that word be and why.
Connector. I go to lots of networking events and what I am known for is connecting people together that need one another in some way. This happens in my online networks as well.

3) I will pick a winner at midnight Monday MST.
-- Sweet. I hope it is me.

a) If you are a hot chick who has a thing for fat Jewish men. (kidding! …sort of…)
You know I already adore you and I don't know about fat Jewish men but I do kind of have a gravitation towards men with dark hair and big noses! (Does that count?)

1) If you are going to Web20expo (or would if you got the pass)
I am not currently planning on Web 2.0 Expo but would definitely come if I got the pass! It is one of the few technology conferences I have never been to and I need another trip out to SF! I have already begun poking around for sponsorships to fund the trip out there from Atlanta. All the cool kids are going to Web 2.0 Expo, why can't I? Plus, if I win this badge, you'll get exposure to the corporates, entrepreneurs, bloggers, etc in the Southeast who rarely attend the SF conferences. I could shine the light of Web 2.0 Expo upon them with my online coverage thus creating further brand awareness and extending the interest further across the country!

2) If I asked the person that knows you best to describe you with one word, what would that word be and why.
Filthy. (Just kidding.) Tastemaker is one that is thrown around a good bit. I'm a saavy, proactive entrepreneur in the internet space and have been actively working in online marketing across many verticals for over a decade. People trust and follow my opinions, advice and direction due to the experiences I have had and the relationships I foster. I'm also just a generally friendly kinda gal. I am an early adopter in technology, an influencer in entertainment and always on the pulse of culture.

3) I will pick a winner at midnight Monday MST.
FANTASTIC! Let me know and I'll book my flight Monday night. ;)
