The four weeks of October are booked…sigh

Damn, I don’t even have time to sneeze the next four weeks.

This week I travel to Seattle to interview a bunch of folks at Microsoft and other companies, and interview Woz on stage at the University of Washington.

Then next week we head to Converge South in North Carolina, where we have a meeting slated with Elizabeth Edwards, among others, and Maryam and I are giving at least one presentation.

The third week of October we’re going to film and post a new show — from San Francisco — which we’re calling “the Lunch Show” for now (it probably will get a better name later). If you wanna be on, please drop us a line — Irina and Eddie will host this daily show from the lunch room of Technorati! Geeks with something cool to demonstrate are what we’re looking for. We’ll film that from noon to 1 p.m. every day and hopefully have it up by 6 p.m. — we’ll see how that goes, doing a daily video show isn’t going to be easy. But we’re excited that Dave Sifry and club have supported the project wholeheartedly and we have lots of fun guests lined up (with more — like you — needed).

The fourth week we head back to Seattle for the Blog Business Summit where we just learned we’re going to be guests on a private Lear Jet trip to Walla Walla (the guy, Steve Broback, who hosts Blog Business Summit is taking several bloggers to dinner, courtesy of Greenpoint Technologies who is a VIP jet completion firm and is sponsoring the trip — details here on the Blog Business Summit’s blog).

I’ll bring my video gear along. It’s quite something to get a ride on a jet that I never would be able to afford otherwise.

I guess I just did a “PayPerPost” here, didn’t I? Well, if you’re gonna sell your soul, why settle for only $2.50? My soul costs more than that. A ride in a Lear Jet is getting closer. :-)

    “Well, if you’re gonna sell your soul, why settle for only $2.50? My soul costs more than that. A ride in a Lear Jet is getting closer.”

    Does this mean the blogosphere will soon be awash with spreadsheets evaluating the net present value of your soul?

    I’m going to be at the Plone conference ( http://plone.org/events/conferences/seattle-2006 ) in Seattle at the same time as the Blog Business Summit. Can I come over and and get a walk-on cameo part in one of your videocasts ;-)

    I have yet to watch one of your videos. I don’t plan on it, watching videos takes too much time. Blogging works when it is written, Audio blogging works in the car. Video blogging competes with Battle Star Galactica and a torrent of new good shows, sorry Scoble I just don’t have the time to commit.

    And I thought I was busy.

    Hey Robert - very sorry to hear things are heating up like that, but the holidays will cool off a bit.

    Are we still on for the PR/Communications workshop on Monday October 23 (From Social Media to Corporate Media) which we talked about on Friday at PME? http://www.socialmediaclub.com/sm2cm/

    When is the interview with Woz at the UW? Is it an open invitation? I’d love to make it to that!

    Thanks Robert!

  7. PabloS Says:

    Are you going to post the interview with Woz?
    Maybe a podcast of that?
    I hope you let us know if you do so!
    I’m in Argentina, so there is no way I can make it over there, hehe.

  8. Robert Scoble Says:

    Dave: it’s not open, but I have a couple of extra tickets. Email me at robertscoble@hotmail.com and I’ll get you in (it’s 7 p.m. at University of Washington in Seattle on Friday evening).

    Pablo: I’m going to try. Not sure yet that I’ll be able to.

  9. PabloS Says:

    OK!! I hope you could do it!!
    Thanks a lot.

    #3 reminded me of a thought I had the other day.

    There seems to be a lot of people in the comments who only have negative things to say about what Robert is posting.

    Why are you here? Wouldn’t you get more enjoyment from reading and watching posts you like, rather than ones that give you cause for complaint?

    #12 what is tp? Is it Time Pass. HeHe

  14. Robert Scoble Says:

    Chris: yes.

    Dan: thanks. It always amazes me that there are people who feel it’s their job to rip other people down. I never saw a need to do that unless it was someone who was trying to legislate something against my interests.

  15. I know, I know… « Veritas Vos Liberabit - The Truth shall set you free Says:

    [...] I was reading Scoble’s post about his month of October and noticed that he was going to be doing the aforementioned interview.  I posted a comment asking about the open status of the interview.  45 minutes later, Scoble responded with a comment about having some tickets available. [...]
