The Latest on SXSWi: Fess up, Link up, Meet up

Today Hugh from SXSW Interactive updates the world on their roster of female speakers (120 at last count) and shows BlogHer some linky love on the topic.

Special thanks to all our friends at BlogHer for helping to recruit so many creative and qualified women to SXSW.

You're welcome Hugh. Believe me, we consider it a part of our mission to evangelize women speakers.

Hugh also helps us out by encouraging people to go take out BlogHer survey on "naked blogging" at work! Intrigued? Feeling confessional? Go check it out. And if you're in Austin next month come to the We Got Naked, Now What? panel to hear about the results.

So, speaking of Austin next month...Time to plan our BlogHer Meet-up.

Save this time/date:

DATE: Friday March 10th
TIME: 9:00 PM-whenever
LOCATION: TBD-I'm going to ping a coupla you Austin BlogHers who offered to help us out on this a while back. You will be taken up on that offer chicas!

Stay tuned.

SXSW and BlogHer

I will be attending the SXSW interactive and film fest. The We Got Naked... sounds interesting I am planning to visit.

Great! Look forward to meeting you

Alasko: Make sure to introduce yourself, whether at the Meetup or at the panel.

I'm so stoked about SXSW...heard so much about it, and never been.

Even last year the buzz was that women were going to SXSW instead of eTech because SXSW was more woman-friendly. Now they've doubled the number!!

I can't wait.

Damn, I won't be there till

Damn, I won't be there till Sat night. Are there Bloghers that want to do a lunch on Monday?

It seems most of the Blogher panels are crowded into Sat and Sun (pity they are not more spread out so we can go to each others' panel.) So I'm thinking informal confabs on Monday and Tuesday would be great.
