What is going on in my life?

March 12, 2009 By

It’s 5:08 a.m. and I haven’t gotten much sleep, but that’s cause I’m creatively alive. Last night I hung out with a ton of smart people at David Allen’s Getting Things Done Summit and came home and just wanted to do a lot of things. Got a bunch of photos up. Uploaded a video, working on others. Even got in the mood to blog again. I know, I know, it’s been a while.

Here’s what’s going on: on Monday I start a new project with a new company. On Saturday I will reveal what that is on the Gillmor Gang (that’s distributed live on Leo Laporte’s network at http://live.twit.tv at 3 p.m. Pacific Time on Saturday afternoons). Actually it’ll be more than me, because there’s a team of people involved, not just me. We’ll take questions and all that then. We’ll be doing that from the SXSW event in Austin, Texas. I’ll be there Saturday-Wednesday. Hope to see you there! We’ll be doing live video every afternoon on the Ustream SXSW studio. Please join us there, we’ll have lots of music and fun guests.

Anyway, I’ve been posting a TON of stuff over on friendfeed at http://www.friendfeed.com/scobleizer — I’ve been seeing a lot of companies and interesting people the past few weeks and that’s where I’ve been posting everything I’ve been doing. That will change in April, but I’m still in “slowdown” mode in public while I get our new project going.

More to come next week after I can talk openly about what’s going on in my life.

    GTD saved my life – literally. I have a wish to meet David Allen personally and thank him. If I hadn’t read that book, I’d be bankrupt, single, and in failure.

    If you see him, pass it on ;)

    @Scoble – thank you so much! I really, really appreciate it. I can’t begin to say how much it has done for me

    The suspense is crazy Robert! I can’t wait to see what you end up chasing down. I know that it will be a huge success AND I am interested because I know it will be something that is the product of the many brains you tap into around the globe.

    I am staying tuned!

    Robert,

    You should get on skype for the Gillmor Gang more often, now that they have the ‘skypeasaurus’ set up and running.

    And did I hear you say that the ‘team’ will be on the GG ?

    Keep on keepin’ on,
    Chris

    I’m excited for you! I’m sure whatever project you work on over the next space in your schedule will be valuable to many people. Stick with the GTD…I’ve been back on that wagon and cleaning up for the last two weeks! And thanks to you, by the way, I’m enjoying FriendFeed more than I did 6 months ago.

    It didn’t take long for the jealous and untalented to register their two cents against Robert – proving only that internet speed is agnostic to the message. But Robert is truly one of the good guys, someone who always made time for the little guy and infected us all with his unbounded excitement and energy. To the naysayers I say: this is not an OBIT about Robert, this is a pat on the back for a LIFE well done and looking forward to all the good stuff yet to come.
