FreshBooks RV Trek to SXSW and their Supper Club–mind your manners people

I got a cool e-mail from the team at FreshBooks this morning.  Wait, cool email from the company you send invoices through?  Umm, Tris what’s in your coffee, buddy, you might be thinking.  Well first I like to hear from the companies and services I use and support.  Especially when I get tips, tricks and a little behind the scenes information.  The FreshBooks Supper Club, launched today, is a nice little notice.  Couple tips, a customer spotlight (and who doesn’t like that), and a bit of tongue-in-cheek talk about their upcoming road trip:

That being said we at FreshBooks are not quitters. Once we put our mind to something we pretty much run with it… so we have rented us a pretty sweet “large” RV and will be driving from The Future of Web Apps conference (February 29 – March 1, 2008) in Miami, Florida all the way to South by Southwest (March 7–11, 2008) in Austin, Texas with some very clear goals:

Meet as many users as we can, introduce the “south” to FreshBooks and what we offer, eat a Texas-sized donut, eat a country fried steak, get interviewed on a small town “morning show” (I am looking at you WPMI in Mobile, Alabama), pick up a hitchhiker, and of course, we want to be elected POTUS.

I’ve done that drive.  Well a lot of it anyway.  Lots of cool stuff to see (I did Virginia to New Mexico when I was in the Scouts).  Guys, let me tell you, Texas is a lot bigger than it looks!  The trek is supposed to be a faux Presidential race, however none of them can run for office–but I can.  Hmm, maybe I could be the FreshBooks nominee for President?

The FreshBooks team has also started tweeting, follow them on Twitter, hmm wonder was a twitter invoice would be.  “Give me money, please” in 140 characters or less.  Yeah sure.  Now do you do that as an @ reply or DM?
