Social Media Lunch Sprouts Austin Job Video

April 18, 2010

I held the third installment of the South Austin Social Media Lunch (http://www.ez.com/austinlunch)this past Thursday (4-15-10). Turn out was fair and the conversations were great. Little did I know that the video interview that took place across the table from me would sprout this:
Spring.net video controversy on Austin Examiner.com
from this: How hard is it for an intelligent person to get a job in Austin, Texas?

Side note from the Examiner article:

“The Social Media Lunch is held every month at an Austin restaurant… The Lunch was attended and sponsored by famed Adomatica.com blogger Robert Gilbreath and his coworkers at the Austin based Calendars.com who sat at the same table as the Examiner and Jacqueline. We hope to get to interview him in a future article.”

“Famed Adomatica.com blogger Robert Gilbreath”??

Paul, I’ll do an interview anytime regardless of my “famed” status.
