Looking for Advice for Tomorrow (Today)

I just got back from a party for Stage Two Consulting, run by Jeremy from Live Digitally (where I first started blogging and all around super guy), and now I am beginning to realize that I am in for a storm tomorrow. If I had enough money I would just go the Scoble route and simply broadcast every moment of my life and hope that somebody chats with me – but since I find that rather pretentious, I’ll just set my agenda in writing (something I do every night, although not publicly) in the hopes that somebody leaves some advice in the form of comments.

  • Morning: Around 9am: Chatting with an editor from MTV about the beat blogging project. Final goal – find out where they stand and convince them to shell some money out to help us build a cool Twitter tool for all journalists with a national beat. Take good notes – to blog the whole thing at Beat Blogging.
  • Publish some content at Broowaha.com
  • The Beat Blogger at Truehoop.com is trying a fun little experiment tomorrow with wikis – and in addition to blogging it, I want to make sure the wiki that’s involved stays troll free (the blogger is on a flight and I promised to check in on it to save it from any trolls).
  • Drive out to East Bay – for meeting later in the day
  • Phone call with Ed Sussman at Fast Company about the new social networking changes on their website (anybody have any good questions for him?)
  • Meeting with the Maynard Institute about NewsTrust.net (in Oakland)
  • Send out email to community at Social News Central
  • Email ALL beat bloggers to get a status update. Have them fill out a Google form which will update me.
  • Check in with Jarvis about the next business symposium on networked journalism.

And I have to Twitter the whole thing. It’s a first world tragedy, I know – I should be so lucky as to have a hectic day while other journalists are being laid off. This isn’t a post to complain – but to see if anybody out there has any advice on anything?

Thursday will include time to breathe.
