Blogsphere conversation
The subject line read: “PS – Nice start on the blog.” The body of the email contained more information and concluded with the comment “I’ve added you to my blogroll. Will spotlight one of your posts soon.”
Mary Schmidt, Business Developer and Marketing Troubleshooter converses easily on and offline. She models community, one of the five critical points of contact. In fact, she's working the blogging community angle this weekend at a blogging conference in Chicago.
I appreciate the outreach and I look forward to continuing that conversation and starting others in the blogsphere. Someday soon, I’ll even manage my own blogroll. It's a process, a rather fun and challenging process. Just yesterday I discussed matters of technical nature with another entrepreneur who's off on a different, albeit related journey called podcasting. That's yet another post.
As I continue down the blogpath, I'm inspired by Theodore Roosevelt's quote about persistence: "it is far better in life to strive for mighty deeds, win glorious triumphs, although checkered with failure, than to join the ranks of those poor, timid souls who live in the gray twilight of never achieving much, never risking or failing much, not knowing the thrill of victory or the agony of defeat." Here's to those mighty deeds. You go, Mary!

thanks Mary Ellen!
And, for your readers who are still thnking "Why sould I blog" I have two words: Google Juice. You don't have to learn voodoo technology or spend thousands with an "SEO expert" You do, however, have to put some planning into it and work the plan. (And, a blogroll is links,which translates into more people joining your conversation.)
P.S. Let's talk media kits over lunch this week! See ya soon. (Oh, and there's a very cool new start-up (presented at the conference) that enables us to easily add video to our on-line offices.
