I'm at Tech Crunch 50 right now which is a big conference focusing on technology companies all striving to be the next big thing on the internet. Tech Crunch is a blog that is to Silicon Valley what Variety is to Hollywood. Or what ESPN is to sports. The coolest thing I've seen so far is Microsoft Surfce. Its a coffee table thats like a giant iphone. There's also this company called Qik that can turn your cell phone into a news truck -- you can stream live video from your phone directly to the web.
The reason I'm here is because yesterday we launched our new web series Blahgirls.com, an interactive web series and blog (or as we like to call it a Blah Blah Blahg) that follows three animated teenage girls that love to get together and gossip about the latest thing celebrities are doing. By the way, if the blah girls were old enough to vote, they'd vote for Obama although they def want to see more pics of Sarah Palin in a bikini firing guns!
As i waited to go on stage to present, I went to the bathroom where i've never seen so many nervous tech guys waiting to take a dump. The line was literally out the door. And apparently stage fright is a big thing in the valley.
Once i got on stage, I was a little bit nervous too and wish that i had taken a dump too. But i think it all went well. We're far from the most tech advanced company, but people seemed to respond to the videos. I hope you like it too! If you dig it, every Monday and Thursday we're going to launch a new video on Blahgirls.com. New blog posts will go up daily and there's some cool interactivity that you can check out. Have an inspired day.
