Earlier this morning we had 27 registrations -- just 13 more and we fill all our slots. I can't donate anymore but I have a couple of friends who have reached the 10-gallon mark as donors. C'mon, Austin tweeps and tech geeks. Let's save some lives! Happy Birthday! Earlier this morning we had 27 registrations — just 13 more and we fill all our slots.

What we need with Austin Social Media Club is fresh ideas from new people and this is a doozy. In fact why not come check out the next Austin Social Media Club meeting? Or join our group on Facebook or LinkedIN. Help us make our organization better! One of my favorite parts of this Blooddrive is that it’s the idea of one of our newest members! @michellegreer.

I hope Austin can give you the best birthday present ever. BTW, there are over 90 spots available. That means we can save 90 people. How incredible is that?

I am one of those very fortunate people that has received the gift of life. Each time I had a blood transfusion, it used to make me cry. Mostly because I knew (and prayed) that it would give me another day of life and also that someone took time out of their day to donate blood. You all rock it so hard you need your own backup band! Thanks. I'd come hold hands with the blood donors for support, but right now my love and thanks have to come all the way from Seattle! Happiest of birthdays!
