March 22, 2010 Leo's World Record
Leo had a blast at SXSW at Austin, Texas, and that’s apart from meeting up with fans and friends. Never to shy away from the camera, he became the tech meme of the month for live streaming his “crowd surfing” at the Diggnation party (thanks to the backpack equipment rigged up by Colleen), and set a world record for being the heaviest and bulkiest man ever to crowd surf at a diggnation party at SXSW – well, for something anyway, on URDB.

Hacker’s Diet
Leo has mentioned a number of times that he shouldn’t weigh himself (and tweet the readings) every day but should do so at longer intervals. David Phillips recommends that Leo check out the Hacker’s Diet on Wikipedia, devised by Autodesk founder John Walker.
The Unbrideled Pleasures of Churrascaria
No diet could have saved Leo in Texas, when he abandoned himself to the mindless pursuit of epicurean delights at the Fogo de Chao. Fortunately he went to the restaurant before the Diggnation party, or he would have broken a few backs along with the world record.
