Kara Andrade from HablaHonduras and I have a panel up for consideration for the 2010 SXSW Interactive Festival and we’d appreciate it so much if you guys voted for us and commented here on SXSW’s PanelPicker.

Labor Day is the last day to vote!

You can also help us spread the word by sharing this link http://bit.ly/votesxsw with everyone you know.

The title of the panel is “Here Come All the Latino Bloggers” and we intend to boldy go where few Latinos have been expected to go before. You might have noticed the lack of latino representation at everybody’s favorite interactive event in Austin, TX, but I am proud to announce that the Latino blogger, columnist, and citizen journalist has finally arrived.

Our panel will be about what is happening online and offline in Latin America, including Streisand effects, citizen journalism, jounalism 2.0, social injustice, and the digital divide.

The panel will also let you find out out more about the bloggers that are leaving a mark in the US and worldwide in the name of Latin America when it comes to politics, social justice, marketing, music, and technology.

By the way, here are some of the questions we hope to answer with out panel:

In this 8th edition of Random Tuesdays with Summer Rose, I go to one of the coolest cities on Earth. Or at least just one of the coolest cities that I can drive to.  All I can say to you is that it is weird, and that weird is good and that weird must be kept weird. So there.

Oh, by the way, if you like the video (or don’t), please vote for the “Here Come All the Latino Bloggers” panel that’s up for consideration at SXSW Interactive 2010. The internets depend on your vote!

Don’t forget to check in next Tuesday because I might have a back-to-school special. Maybe.
