Who should I pick for the business class / LeWeb3 ticket ?

Hey friends, below the tweets I received for the contest.... Difficult to pick... can you help ?

update:
@ledretch convinced me I should really pick someone who would never have the means to come in any case
let's narrow down the criteria. a girl who would never have the means to come and who would +really+ like to. A student maybe
obviously in or nearby New York or who could make it there as the flight is from NY

update: picked the winner,

@aliciamk who qualified as a student with no means to go to the conference, girl because we do not have enough, following me on twitter and blog for years (thanks!), and who committed to video blog her trip to share with everybody. Thanks to everybody who participated and followed. It was a real tough choice. Sorry if you have not won.

Oops, mine isn't there either!

Michael Krigsman, December 06, 2007 at 04:18

hum? Well I think you should pick me, oh and @Obstructionist. We'd like to me up with @Ledretch and @potiontv in Paris. Also, I want a VinVin autograph. Have you read Seth Godin's books The Dip and Permission Based Marketing. You get to determine if I'm in a dip or if I should quit trying to create a VRM permission based marketing company where users own their own data. If I'm not selected, WebThere.com will go blank and return to its previously hyper-intelligent shade of blue and big corporations will continue to take advantage of us. Plus, I'll be in SF in March and will stop by Seesmic and complain otherwise. LeWeb3, ya gotta send me. It's fate Loic, fate. Plus, I'm only 80 minutes from JFK.

TedC, December 06, 2007 at 04:25

Plus, I need to get to Rue Cler to see if the Greek guy is still there selling crepes. Need to Seesmic about that.

TedC, December 06, 2007 at 04:32

You know I would do some great and fun things for Seesmic. Again, VinVin and I would leave the place in stitches if we could collaborate on cleaver media.
If you don't choose me, I hope you all have a great time and kick some butt!

Peace out-
Rocky-

Rocky Barbanica, December 06, 2007 at 04:33

Oh, one last thing. Paris is my favorite city in the whole world. Had my honeymoon there, lots of memories as a kid too. I gotta talk SemWeb with Johann. You've got Doc Searls, Jeff Pulver, Ev, Kevin Rose, Arrington, Canter, Winer, Scoble (Holy Crap) and probably every other person I'd like to meet, except for maybe @chrisbrogan, who appears to be competing for the ticket as well. Ok, that's my last comment, at least on the blog. Get me to LeWeb3. The power of the future is in your hands.

TedC, December 06, 2007 at 04:49

Because I am the only Blogakademicien !! And I think that would be helpful for a young entrepreneur to participate at this huge event even if I am not Mr Poppy ;)

Good luck all !!

Julien Legeard, December 06, 2007 at 04:55

Loic my dear,
Again, I need to go there and be part of the ninemillion.org meeting in Paris (leweb). I am one of the task force of Digital Champions, same as you! but let me tell you, the difference is that you are there and not me. I am down here in Buenos Aires and not enough money in my wallet. So, I am the candidate, easy! You pick me, I go, we met.

Hernan Blanco (gesualdo on twitter), December 06, 2007 at 04:57

RhiannonSL: from Second Life to Podcamp to Startup Weekend and even the U.N. Now would be great to take my social media future international @LeWeb3 :)

Joyce Bettencourt, December 06, 2007 at 07:32

Because I’ve followed your conference online, written about it for the Embassy, referenced it multiple times in my Georgetown Senior Honors Thesis for 2009, but have never had time/money to attend. Because now the dates fit perfectly between the end of classes and the start of my exams. Because it would be an unbelievable reward for completing a 1-year internship at the Embassy this month, and because I would be ecstatic to feature it in our newsletter or magazine. Parce qu’en Février je démenagerai à Paris pour y rester jusqu’au mois de Septembre, et je pourrais aussi beneficier pour faire des contacts. Because I’m a woman, and a jeune étudiante at a web conference, that’s sexy. Because it’s impossible to describe how much I want this in 140 words, but the smile on my face will be worth a thousand when I see VinVin and yourself on Tuesday and greet you with the best combination of an American hug and a French embrace. ;)

I suggest that you help a student, there are 4 of them in the list, because they really can't afford the price...

I know, that I should plead the case of love. I want this man (marcuhlig) there for selfish reasons. I just want to be near him again, even if just for a few days, and that amidst the crowd of LeWeb-goers. But at the same time, i do feel he should be chosen for other reasons. He is an amazing man, who aspires to change things in marketing and communication. But I feel, he still has things to learn and people to meet first. Who am I kidding? Send him so I can give him kisses and talk with him for hours about social networks, human behavior, the future of the web, and all those other romantic topics.

also, if you want liveblogging, videostreaming, constant twittering, and all that. it will be done.

Hi Loic

Just last week Im HONORED to say my viral efforts(executed from my room/office in Baltimore, MD) paid off and over 13,000 French readers discovered my startup, Sleep.FM - The Social Alarm Clock ! This based upon reader count of this article http://tinyurl.com/3yzeo9. I am sure many more French consumers read about it also, which I am extremely GRATEFUL for!

To actually be in Paris one week after receiving this press out of nowhere would be a surreal experience and great thing for everyone!

Thank you,
Ryan Spahn

About

Welcome to my blog. Based in San Francisco, I am an entrepreneur and a blogger. I just started my fifth startup, Seesmic, a community driven video social software. Here is what TechCrunch says about it.

I am blogging every day a video on loic.tv about (almost) everything I do as I start Seesmic, I also constantly post short thoughts to twitter and often my pictures on Flickr.

I also organize every year in Paris the conference LeWeb3 that gathers more than a thousand bloggers and entrepreneurs from 40 countries on Dec 11 and 12.

If you would like to learn more, here is a bio, my LinkedIn profile, my wikipedia pages in english and french. Sometimes they are subject to changes that do not always reflect what I consider the truth but that is the principle.

You may also want to subscribe to my RSS feeds in English, French or my video podcast feed.
