Kim Dushinski has been a good online friend of mine for a long time - it was really great to finally meet her at BlogWorld. I had to sit her down and chat about her BlogWorld experience. I loved her comments on the Sunday morning Keynote with Mike Shinoda from Linkin Park, Tim Ferriss of [...]

Patrick O’Keefe put together a great panel at BlogWorld on Avoiding Disaster: How Not to Use Social Media.

He opened his presentation giving the audience a foundational overview of how social [...]

Guy Kawasaki put me on the spot and asked how I could not have a Mac. And I told him I don’t like Macs (Sheesh).
So I thought I was getting him back by putting him on the spot to do a quick interview. In the end, it was probably one of the funniest clips yet.

On Sunday, I will be leading a panel discussion with Dave Taylor of AskDaveTaylor.com along with Steve Hall of AdRants,  David Peralty of Xfep and Lynn Truong of Wise Bread.  We will be discussing how to sell advertising directly to advertisers.
