On June 14th 2010 thousands of people will take part in the first ever unofficial official Linchpin worldwide meetup. This is a completely non-commercial chance to find and connect with other members of Seth’s tribe, an opportunity to talk, challenge, and inspire your fellow travelers. We want to capture the energy, ideas and inspiration of that event and share it globally.
The idea is simple. Each of us will meet at least one new person on June 14th, and will have at least one conversation. Some will be inspired to think thoughts they haven’t thought, others will be exposed to new ideas, some may make lasting business connections or friendships. It will be an experimental, thought provoking evening for all of us.
We want to capture the energy, ideas and inspiration from this event and turn it into something wonderful to share with the tribe. A lovingly created, beautifully designed magazine, written by all of us who are attending, telling how the meet up inspired or challenged or changed us. All profits to charity.
After the event you have 48 hours to send us your stories about the people you met, the ideas that were shared with you, how you were changed, what you will do differently now, what you’ve understood. You’ll send us your images and text. We won’t accept anything after the 48 hours are up. We want to strike while it’s all fresh in your mind.
By June 21st, one week after the meet up, we’ll publish the first Linchpin magazine. We’ll have curated all that inspiration into one beautiful publication which will be sold and distributed on MagCloud. We will add a small mark up on the publication cost, all of which will be donated to charity. We will publish sales numbers and details of how much we have donated on this lens.
Nobody involved will make a single cent from the project, apart from the charity we choose. We’ll do it because it will be fun, and because we can. It’s totally experimental – hell it might even work.
