#NACA2011

Brian is in St. Louis for the NACA convention where performers go to meet with colleges to get booked for performances. So this year, NACA organized a twitter hash tag (#NACA2011) for everyone to use. So now all of Chatrealm is being unleashed on Twitter to talk about all of the amazing things that they saw Brian Brushwood doing. See all of the Adobeshops here.

IMPORTANT NOTICE Things got a little out of hand, so please don't spam #NACA2011 anymore! Don't even apologize on the #NACA2011 hashtag...just stop using it completely! (...although after the conference ends, it won't really matter anyway.)

but Cuba

Originally called "Lost in Translation", the game was renamed after the infamous "but Cuba" line that came from the first time they played the game.

Squarespace.com Presents: Change of Plans

The NACA 2011 Twitter bit totally fell apart during the Squarespace read when Brian got texts and a phone call from his agent telling him to stop the tweeting. The NACA folks were getting annoyed. This situation was frighteningly similar to the SXSW GDGT party where Brian encouraged people to take advantage of the large Twitter screen which soon filled up with 8===D.

How many other NACA performers were a worldwide trending topic on Twitter?

So instead of going through with their third bit, they decided to deal with this new very real problem. Somebody even made ChatrealmIsSorry.Squarespace.com.

However there is a positive side to this whole ordeal; during Brian's live meltdown, he became the #1 worldwide trending topic on Twitter.

At about 3am EST, Brian started a Justin.tv livestream and revealed all was well and it wasn't as bad as he feared.

New Champion! Woo!

  • Brian for becoming a world-wide trending topic

Great Quotes

  • "Am I on speakerphone?" - Brian's agent
