Man I was forced to read Guy Kawasaki’s book for class! As assigned reading always strikes fear into the eyes of college students but that book was seriously awesome. Not only for an entrepreneurial standpoint but also from a personal standpoint for developing myself. I would love to just sit down at a lunch or dinner and just talk to him about his life experiences and what exactly he has failed at to make him so successful.

Alex,

I sleep, I’m a fast typist.

Here’s my early dairy about cambodia – don’t keep it up much anymore

I’ll be in DC – in fact doing a day of service for hunger awareness to capture it in social media on October 19th. Will be speaking at E-Metrics on the 21st, and teaching at save at strength on the 20th.

We’ll have to meet.

Alex,

LOVE your idea of creating a bloggers to meet bucket list. Here’s mine.

Seth Godin (although I think I’d be SO intimidated!)
Nedra Weinrich (Qui can’t say enough good stuff about her)
Jeff Brooks (I think he’s a great writer.)

I’d also be happy to spend more time with my favorites!
Katya
Allison Fine
Beth Kanter
Holly Ross
and, of course, QUI!

@Rebecca Glad the psot caught your eye. All of these bloggers are very accesible and helpful as I’ve had online interactions with some of them. But there’s nothing like a face2face convo. I just wanted to be a little creative, share their great wisdom with SB’s readers, while also sharnig some luv with some of my biggest role models. Thanks for stopping by!

@Rohit of course! I would be at Interact; however, I am presenting my research at the 1st World Social Marketing Conference in Brighton England at that same time. However, I will be at Twin Tech 2 tonight and us both being in DC, I’m sure (hoping) that our paths will cross soon! Thank you for responding.

Maybe we can plan a talk after the World Social Marketing Conference. My vision should be a little clearer by then. Nice company to be considered with! Thank you.

I haven’t talked to these bloggers personally, but I do know many of them are extremely accessible. I wouldn’t be surprised if you contacted them and were able to have conversations. Just a thought : ) Or maybe they will find you through this post. As for me, I want to talk to Dooce.

Enjoyed the post.

Thanks for including me on this list and for your kind words – I’m sure we’ll get the chance to connect at an event in the near future! Are you going to be at Interact in DC at the end of the month?
