I posted about a scam.  I was contacted by a producer of syndicated reports and then interviewed by a local KING5 Sr. Photographer.  Yesterday I got a call from a good friend, who mentioned to me that his parents saw the news clip while they were on vacation in Florida.  Today I noticed an increase [...]

down to only 88 feeds

In the past couple weeks, I’ve lightened my blog reading and unsubscribed from about 150 feeds.  Right now, I’m “down” to “only” 88.  Most of them are official feeds for products or services that I use, or they are my own feeds and I’m only subscribed to make sure they’re working correctly.  This change should help [...]

resume updated

For anyone following my recent job hunt, I’ve updated my resume and also removed it from several places online.  (Really, I was going to do this very soon, but decided to do it right now because too many new recruiters were still calling.  To the many helpful recruiters out there, you’re the best.  But, I’m off the [...]

UPDATE: I moved my comments from the end of this post to the beginning.  The report is still quoted below.
I found this report via Doc Searls. (He’s #95 on the list.)

My take:
It’s interesting to see concepts so prevalent in Knowledge Management and Information Management so frequently noted.  [...]

I was just being a little goofy with a comment and rambling on.  I’m sure I often make mistakes with my grammar, and sometimes I intentionally do, because I’m trying to write in a way that comes across more like I sound when I talk, or what others sound like when they talk.

not St. Patty’s Day

I think I’m just not in the mood to go out this weekend.  Right now, I’m a no show with some friends at an Irish pub.  I drove by, and saw the long line to get in, and to wait in the rain.  I’m just not in the mood.  It is kind of funny to [...]
