I #BlameDrewsCancer that this amazing Co-Pilot idea didn't happen sooner

http://www.drewolanoff.com/post/193484736/lucky-9-you-betcha?dsq=17124089#comment-17124089

I love Drew. He is living, all heart, out in public with cancer. He went as social with it as you can and now he is much bigger than cancer. In fact his cancer is going away!

At the bottom of this post he mentions starting a chemo co-pilot idea. I think this is brilliant and might work for a lot more than chemo. Ongoing pairing and encouragement can help so many people out of and through so many situations…from cancer to women funding their start-ups. I envision the scaling of these close ongoing bonds between people as one of the most transformative things the Web can do.

Social ninjas: Join me tonight for the first Tummel live video show.

Heather Gold, Deb Schultz and Kevin Marks talk tummeling: the art of energetically bringing things together: tech, culture, business and people.

Watch and join us on http://twit.tv Tues Sept 22nd at 7pm PST/10pm EST

How this started:

Kevin is was at the microphone at the Supernova conference a year or two ago addressing <a href=”shirky.com“>Clay Shirky</a> who had presented his now classic book Here Comes Everybody. Kevin was insistent that there was often more to people randomly connecting and just showing up at places together. There must be people and methods which who played a serious role in making this thing happen. How do you deliberately create what is called community or a meaningful connection? Deb Schultz and I were there and so happy to meet a fellow traveller. We’d spent a lot time connecting businesses and people. We knew a lot in our own ways about how to deliberately create ways and spaces for meaningful connection. We all embraced the word tummeling. Kevin is a technologist, Deb creates business connections and I perform and create useful conversations. We are all sure that business and technology were created by and for people.

Join us tonight for our pilot live video podcast at http://twit.tv with our first guest, tech and business advisor Jerry Michalski

Weight reduction and Penis Enlargement

I was recently part of a mediabistro panel called Creating Online

Entertainment.

Afterword, a woman approached me and Dina Kaplan (above right) COO of
Blip.tv

She said, “I’m a hypnotist. I do weight reduction and penis
enlargement.”

“You’re walking spam,” I replied.

The web grows up. Social passes data.

I was searching for good panels at SXSWi 10 and discovered that 1,118 of the 2,000 proposed panels have the word “social” in them. That was some heavily re-tweeted shit.

I couldn’t fit into 140 characters why I think this means or matters or why so many people now care about the web as something that is social.

(My pact with my serotonin producers explains my optimism in the face of douchebaggery of those who cannot handle buying someone a beer or having a conversation yet panel and pummel the notion of collecting people like matchbox racers with the delusion of game-ing the un-gameable reality of true relevance and human relationships.
