Tibet Wedding

Wow.  I can hardly believe that it has been over a month since I posted to my blog.  So much has happened.  Since I last wrote, I've gotten married, returned to Asia after a 10 year hiatus, been consumed by a new job that I love and been completely absorbed by one speaking engagement/business trip after another.  It has been quite a summer!  I can hardly believe that Labor day is already here.  I'll be cross posting some of my blog entries from my work blog in the coming days.  I will also be posting a link to our wedding blog once it is live - we are going to be working on it this week-end from Florida.  In the interim, I thought I'd leave you with some pictures from our wedding in Tibet.  Enjoy!  Live long and prosper.  ;-)

Latinos in Social Media Texas - Coming Out Party

Before Tuesday closes, I wanted to write a bit about LATISM Texas' coming out party.  A few weeks ago a member of the LATISM TX founding team (@deannecuellar on Twitter) came to me with the idea of our hosting a coming out party in San Antonio, Texas.  Of course, we went for it!

The event was a resounding success.  They had an amazing line up of speakers, great networking and they even live streamed the event/did a twitter fiesta for those of us who were not able to fly to Texas to be there.  I am sure you will be hearing more from Deanne with next steps, but as @soylamar tweets, "its great to see #latism growing and expanding."

There will also be video on the event soon, taken from the live stream but for the time being I leave you with the tweets:
