I will be away from the blog until next week sometime. We got a call this afternoon that my wife's father passed away. We are leaving early in the morning for Wisconsin. I'll get back to the blog after I return. Thanks for your understanding.

Business is About People not Stats
As we work through the current series on Promoting Your Blog with Social Networking Sites, it is important that we pause for a moment and remember that ultimately business is about people and not about stats. Business blogging is no different. Show Me The Money I've had discussions in the past with folks who subscribe to the conventional ...
