Ypulse @ The Mega Event, Then SXSW
Posted by anastasia on 03-03-2008I'm heading down to Newport Beach this morning for the Youth Marketing Mega Event where I will be moderating a panel Tuesday with speakers from Gaia Online, Mania TV and Rabble. If you're in Newport Beach, I'm meeting Ypulse readers for drinks at 8 p.m. at Sam & Harry's in the hotel. Feel free to join us! I'll also be posting sporadic thoughts on Twitter, which you can also follow (I think) on my Facebook status update. This is an experiment, so we'll see how that goes.
Today's newsletter will include Ypulse Books coverage and a quick Sunday night Ypulse Essentials roundup. Regular posting will resume on Wednesday and Thursday and then we're off again Friday en route to SXSW Interactive, where I will again be Twittering through the weekend (look for regular posts Monday and Tuesday mornings).
For anyone heading to Austin for SXSW Interactive, here's a quick recap of all Ypulse activities:
Saturday, March 8th @ 10 a.m. - I will be moderating a panel with six teenagers about what they want out of online apps and cell phones.
Sunday, March 9th @ 5 p.m. John Davison from Whattheyplay.com will join me and two teens to discuss what teens want from a game in a Core Conversation.
Monday, March 10th @ 3 p.m. I'll be signing my book for anyone who shows up….please show up.
Monday, March 10th @ 7 p.m. The Ypulse SXSW All Ages Mixer at Cafe Mundi. Meet other Ypulse fans, listen to spoken word and hip hop from teen poets, get your blues on with teen band Blues Mafia.
Big thanks to Amy Looper and the folks at MindOH! for helping us recruit teens for the event.
