Welcome back.
SiliconANGLErs Michael Sean Wright and Robert Scoble have teamed up again with eGuider’s Marc Ostrick for another episode in their mini-documentary series, this one entitled “Not Another Twitter Conference.”
This video shadows the group at Jeff Pulver’s #140conf in Los Angeles:
This is a joyous process for us - collaborating and discovering the story that wants to be told. Filmmaking is about humanity - letting the moment find you. We're inspired by the great work being done by individuals who are making our world a better place. From a woman struggling through homelessness to a young man fighting cancer - these new tools of communication are being leveraged with positive results.
Collaboration pushes the film to another level that wouldn't be achievable otherwise. When we work together, the idea of the moment takes precedent over ego. As a filmmaker, the way to improve is by being open to serving the story. As Robert Penn Warren informs us about sharing our creativity, "This is the process whereby pain of the past in its pastness may be converted into the future tense of joy."
It’s another successful and highly watchable show – if you want to know what’s being talked about behind the doors of these $500 a ticket events, here’s your all access pass.
As of 9:26 PM PST on November 8th, @DrewFromTV had 168,335 followers... let's see where he ends up in 24 hours.
It's @drew's birthday! Help eGuiders raise $20,000 for LiveStrong today - #drewbday
Cancer-fighter, Drew Olanoff (@drew) is auctioning off his enviable Twitter username @drew. Drew Carey (@DrewFromTV), host of "The Price is Right," is new to Twitter, and has offered to donate one million dollars to the LiveStrong Foundation if he can get a million followers by December 31st. If he doesn't get a million followers, the donation will be prorated... for example, he'll donate $500,000 if he has 500,000 followers by the end of 2009. So you - YES YOU - are worth one dollar. All you have to do is sign onto twitter and follow @DrewFromTV; so make a friend, raise a dollar, and spread the word.
Cancer has effected most of us in some way, and we need to stop it. Every follower on Twitter gives us a little more hope. So... what are you waiting for? Follow @DrewFromTV and @drew - #drewbday!
