Now that my new blog header is up (can you see it now?), it's time to have some fun. The guys over at Pragmatic Marketing have published their book, Tuned In . And yeah, I am mentioned briefly (I'm on page 169-170). I've already heard good things about Read More...
Like my new header? I had secretly hoped that someone would do something like this for me, but you know, I can't really ask. HUGE thanks to Derek for making my blog considerably less bleh! Read More...
I did that focus group for Sunset Magazine last week. Although I would have talked for free about something that I like so much, the money was for putting on make-up and getting in my car. Anyway, as we talked about the magazine, what we like and don't Read More...
I can't tell you how many times I explain my blogging to people and they simply don't get it. I think it's the combination of the fact that I am blogging as a work activity and that I write about personal things that have them all confused. As time moves Read More...
...index cards. I swear. When I was in high school, a teacher taught us how to use note cards to construct a paper: you make an outline, transfer it to note cards and then add extra cards throughout to supplement with content. You re-order, create transitions Read More...
You may have thought that I was kidding about the tequila last night but I was not. I love the idea of celebrating little things in life like finishing a project or buying a new car. So anyway, off we went to Matador in Redmond last night. I wanted to Read More...
I feel a rush of snark to the brain. You can only hold the snark down for so long and then something has to pop. Right now? It's some of the asshattery that is taking place on facebook. And I fully expect to update this post regularly, if you know what Read More...
Sitting down tonight (I know) to work on some slides for a presentation I am doing in Australia to an audience of Asians and Australians about blogging. Well, I know enough about blogging in the US to get by, but I don't know much about how it's different Read More...

I missed this last week, partly because I don't really care (does the age of your blog mean anything?) and partly because I'm under an avalanche at work and partly because I've got a lot of stuff going on outside of work that is clogging up my brain. Read More...
Every blogger knows a couple of these. Some of us may have even done this before. Timbaland says: resist the urge, step away from the keyboard and decide whether you still care tomorrow and how much of an ass hat you appear to be online. If you think Read More...
I know a large number of "experts" (and also experts) have done analysis on social networking sites. One of my team members is doing an analysis for recruiting. Right now, he's planning on looking into LinkedIn, Orkut, MySpace, Facebook and Xing. I know Read More...

Hot damn... I'm homework ! With all the requisite weirdness brought to you by technorati. Uh, don't study too hard over the holidays. Read More...
Dear Blog, This isn't the type of thing that I should write in a letter but I'm not sure I can tell you to your face. I have tried to tell you before, but every time you open in my browser window and look at me like that, it reminds me how much I love Read More...
It seems that bloggers are a well-traveled bunch. So this news may not be a big deal to you but it's so exciting to me! I have been asked to speak and present a workshop at the Australasian Talent Conference in April. Holy cow and also...whee! Hey, guess Read More...
