I can not count the number of times that I have met someone and they have told me that I speak/carry myself exactly how I write. Sometimes I am not sure if they consider that a good thing or a bad thing, but personally, I am extremely proud of it. When you meet me, I want you to feel comfortable. I believe it would be very...
Sometimes, I can’t get inspired to write. Like today. Writing was just not in the cards and I spent all afternoon working on everything but my blog post. And now, it’s 2:30 in the afternoon, I have tons of work left to do, and I still don’t have any ideas what to write about. But, I figured maybe if I let my fingers start walking,...
If you’re anything like me, you have a whole heck of a lot of blogs that come via rss every morning. Currently, I have about 50 that I subscribe to and read every day.

How to effectively synergize your twitter profile...

The first thing to know is that I will be raffling off 1 month worth of blog management services to 1 lucky winner. As a thank you for my contribution, Justin and Jason Moore-Brown (the brothers behind...
I absolutely love blogs, the way that it is so simple to subscribe and get it in whichever rss feed you choose (or by email!), the customization, the fact that they always have new information, and the multitude of topics. What I don’t like is old but great articles are not always easy to find. First, even with a ‘most popular post’ widget on the sidebar,...
I am an extremely hard to surprise person. Companies really have to go out of the way to impress me, but when they do, I am more than happy to share my experience.
