I’m not running for POTUS. Governor Romney or President Obama aren’t interested in my services.
But I still need your vote.
Here’s the deal…
I’ve teamed up with Mark Schaefer from {Grow} and Gini Dietrich from SpinSucks to host a panel for SXSW 2013.
The panel is titled “Born to Blog – Are You Hardwired for Blogging Success?” I’m pumped to be working with Mark and Gini and we are going to bring the thunder to Austin next year.
But we need your vote to get there.
SXSW picks their events based on the number of votes the event gets. That means we all have to go out and drum up votes for our events. No problem. I know I can count on you to take 5 minutes and show me some love. :)
(Plus I want to impress Mark and Gini so please hook me up)
For some unexplainable reason, the SXSW folks want you to register to vote. Don’t ask me why, but don’t let it scare you off. As far as I can tell its innocuous. Maybe their way of preventing stuffing the ballot box.
When you to the panel picker section – just search for our panel discussion using the search box on the top right. This will bring up our panel discussion listing. Click the thumbs-up icon and you are all set.
Unfortunately, I don’t have “I voted today” stickers for you so go ahead and tell me you voted in the comments below.
Thank you in advance
Vote For Born to Blog at SXSW 2013 Now!
P.S. I would love your vote even if you don’t plan on attending SWSW. It would be nice to show everyone how Pushing Social readers roll!




You’ve got my Vote. Good Luck!
You’ve got my vote. Good Luck!!!
Thank you Carolyn
I think you have to sign in just to prevent multiple votes. Of course, there is nothing preventing you from using multiple emails to vote multiple times. The sign in process was simple, but there was a couple minute delay in receiving my confirmation, so I requested it to be re-sent and then I had two. Oh well, one vote cast. Maybe I will go back later and vote with a secondary email address. Good luck. This would be a great panel to hear. Hope you all win a spot.
Thank you Alice. I knew I could count on you.
Stanford; If you knew what it took to cast this vote for you…. All I have to say is that it’s 11:21 pm here in South Florida and my vote just got cast. I’ve been trying since 6:35 pm when I thought I tweeted a successful vote, but didn’t. If it’s working like this for everyone, 20 or 30 votes should get you to Austin
Man that’s bad. You are a stud for sticking with it!
Voted! Good luck Stan!
I’m trying, still waiting for the confirmation email. They don’t make it too easy.
You got it, now go get ‘em! I trust you’ll keep us posted : )
I went ahead and made myself a user just for you, Stan! Hope you do well!
Thank you Maria! I appreciate your sacrifice for the cause.

haha, I know, SOO much work!
Hi Stan, I’d love to help but is there a way to vote without signing in? That’s a slight deterrant :-\
Unfortunately…no. The sign in sucks.
OK, I’ve registered and voted
Thanks Ben. Wish the process was easier!
