In which we ask “What makes you a Black Blogging Rockstar?” #sxswbbr

A few things.

As I mentioned two weeks ago, I’ll be moderating the Black Blogging Rockstars panel at SXSW Interactive ( Twitter hashtag #sxswbbr ).

If you’re attending SXSW this year, we’d love to have you. We’ll be sharing our experiences with blogging as a platform and career catalyst as well as topics like Haters, Crabs and the Black Tech Community (you know who you are).

As I prepare for the panel, I’m really enjoying the contributions at the companion Black Blogging Rockstars website. The question is simply: What makes you a Black Blogging Rockstar? Answers can be submitted in the form of a quote, pics, an audio file, or a YouTube video link with your reply. Please share your thoughts, if you’re so inclined.

On a related note, CNN Money has an overview of this year’s Blacks In Tech panel & meetup (BIT), hosted by Ogilvy. I’m cited as one of the “early thought leaders” regarding blacks in technology, along with some respected colleagues. I can’t even wrap my head around that. It’s a fairly detailed article, nonetheless. BIT is sure to be well-attended and doesn’t require a SXSW badge to attend.

Okay, back to deciding which suitcase to pack.

Do we know each other, baby?
