Crossroads

Life is the great adventure.  At times it can also be a bit perplexing, like how do you know when you’ve turned a corner in your career? Especially in these interesting times when social media is attracting so much attention, but has so little meaning in the “real world”.
Exploration of blogging and [...]

Finding the write way

I’ve been blogging for awhile now, but have been hesitant about publishing a number of posts here on my personal blog.  Originally, I had included many more technology oriented posts, and blogging-related items.  Lately, however, I’ve been more aligned with the “social media” and “personal branding” topics.
I’ve also had two other blogs that I [...]

Blogging Roadtrip

No, not in a physical sense. Though, I’m off to find unique and new blogs, bloggers, writers, thought tweakers and twitters. Sometimes it’s interesting how you find new people to read and follow. From a reply by one of the people you follow in Twitter, it leads to finding new Twitters. That in turn [...]

Going to SOBCON 2008!

Well the stars aligned and smiled on your’s truly.  I’ll be going to Chicago at the beginning of May for SOBCon08!  For awhile, it didn’t look promising with timing or finances to make it, but I think my wife Amy has been planning to surprise me.  Thanks honey!
I’ll be joining some of my Twitter friends [...]

Sometimes it gets too easy to look for that “easy button” in the social media landscape. That all-powerful, easy to use, fast, tool that lets us quickly grow valuable & worthwhile relationships with fellow social media explorers. I say “explorers” because there are no real experts in social media, but there are many knowledgeable [...]

Thoughts on Comment Fragmentation

I suppose I should be upset by the current wave of tools & services like shyftr that aggregate blog content and also host commenting features for that content. In essence, these services could be accused (and are) of stealing content.
I guess the short of it for me is that I hope people read my [...]

These public bitchfest’s by the supposed “A-List” really need to be taken offline. This crap has filled my RSS reader for too long - I want to be reading real, valuable, useful information from these “thought leaders”, not this drivel. If you can’t share an opinion in a way that adds value - [...]

WordPress 2.5 Upgrade

Well I just upgrade my WordPress install to version 2.5.  Everything seems to be working as intended, so I’m not too worried about it.  After several upgrades, I’ve figured out the best method for me.

Back up the database, and the WP-specific folders
Inventory my plugins and verify that they are compatible with the new version
Disable [...]

Is today the day?

That’s the question I Friday morning, mainly because I’m just curious what people thought.  Originally I had planned to post this later that day, but… life intervened.  Anyway, a number of people shared their thoughts and I thought I’d put them together in a short post.  So the question was…
What makes today special for you? [...]

This morning I was getting started on the day, fired up Twitter and immediately saw that Chris Brogan had a new post.  One that hits home to an issue I’ve been having as a consultant or freelance professional.  The post is a great resource for those starting out freelancing, or re-launching their personal brand.

Hi all!
Just a quick post to mention the updated “post footer” changes that I came up with.  Since adding a few additional services here on my blog, I’ve disliked how messy and unorganized the bottom of each post had become.  So today, I set out to tidy it up a bit and make it [...]

Deep in the doldrums of winter

I think it’s really that part of February that starts to effect everyone.  I’ve been reading it around the ‘net the past week or so.  Posts on enthusiasm, procrastination, motivation, etc… we’re all looking to break out of the same winter blandness and get cranking again.  At least that’s what it feels like.
March is [...]
