Hi. I'm Jennifer Schegel, Marketing Manager at Compumentor (home of TechSoup & NetSquared). I'm here at SXSW with Billy Bicket, Marshall Kirkpatrick, Edie Codel and others from the Net2 Community whom I look forward to meeting soon. I'll be posting some updates on this blog from the conference here in Austin.

On Friday we left the cold spell in SF and stepped off the plane into what was left of a 92-degree-day! We quickly found our way through the desert-like heat to Stubb's (http://www.stubbsaustin.com/) for serious, world-famous BBQ. Billy and the rest of the crowd chowed down on ribs with all the fixins', but being a vegetarian, I only observed the delight.

Highlight: The Blogher.org (http://blogher.org/) gathering on the back patio, where we got a chance to meet Jory Des Jardins, Lisa Stone and many of the smart, cool women who are involved in this wonderful effort. What an inspiring group of women bloggers-- and they all raved about Marnie Webb and Net2! More soon...
