I was tricked! Duped! Misled! Mis-informed! Arrgg! You all know how much I hate PayPerPost and yet, there I am. In a PayPerPost Blogger Beatbox video the company made while in the Bloghaus at this year’s SXSW Interactive conference in Austin. OK, OK. It’s not so bad. It was actually kind of fun.

The Bloghaus was a place to hang out, away from the craziness of the main conference and mingle with fellow bloggers and online media types.So along with Loren Feldman (1938Media), Steve Hall (AdRants), Chris Heuer (SocialMediaClub), Guy Kawasaki, Darren Rowse (ProBlogger), Wendy Piersall (eMom), Aaron Brazell (TechnoSailor), Stephanie Agresta (InternetGeekGirl) and others, there I am, beat boxing like a fool. Yes, that’s what we do at conferences. We don’t actually go to learn stuff, we all go hang with each other, talk and do stupid…er…fun things.

See it all here.

I watched my immigrant father spend thirty years becoming fluent in a country that never fully accepted him, successful in a career that never fully valued him, and proud of a child who spent too long being embarrassed by him —and forgiving myself for that is the one thing all my success has never once been able to buy

Psychology says the reason losing a fake friend feels like grief even when you’re relieved is that your brain doesn’t mourn the person. It mourns the version of yourself that believed the friendship was real, and that identity loss is neurologically identical to heartbreak.

People who carry an air of genuine sophistication into their later years aren’t the ones who learned the most rules — they’re the ones who became secure enough that the rules became irrelevant, and the habits that remain are simply the natural expression of someone who is completely comfortable taking up exactly the amount of space they need and not one inch more
