It’s ironic that Robert Scoble made his post today because for the past couple of days I’ve been struggling with my blogroll. I made some decisions and WOW is it making life easier.
1) I put all FeedBurner feeds in their own category. If FB goes down, I can ignore that folder.
2) I put all link [...]
Robert Scoble responded to my post about embarrassing yourself. His comments are down so I’m going to post about them here, with confidence he’ll find this post.
I agree 100% about getting to know a blogger and a personal blog is a good way to do that. However a business blog can do this [...]
A visual aid to help explain what I meant about several points:

The problem [...]
Do you remember the first Xerox machine? They were huge, slow, but wow, did they make like much easier. No more carbon! As with most technology, they evolved. Other machines came out but as a society we decided to call them Xerox machines, even if they were made by another company. Same thing with Kleenex. [...]
I can’t believe I’m typing this, but I wish my RSS aggregator had email program features. There, I said it. Now let me explain:
While dealing with a nuisance computer issue I’ve been thinking about how I want to develop this site – the direction I want to take. The computer issues caused me to re-think [...]
I tried posting this at Robert Scoble’s site but his site is malfunctioning. So here is my response:
Thomas (in his response to me): ok, thank you for the clarification. That was how it came across. I see where you are coming from but your statement is inaccurate – there will be more women upgrading to [...]
