I was going through my feeds last night and funneling all of my reads as I tend to do in the evenings and sharing some of what I found to be interesting to my community through Twitter. This is becoming more and more of a habit with me as I tend to pour through a [...]

Twitter Losing Trust
Facebook Acquires FriendFeed – Twitter Beware – Google Looking Over Shoulder
I just read the news about Facebook acquiring FriendFeed. Many are already shouting "game changer", but not really. Facebook already has the huge networking, but it does make some ground on the folks at Twitter as a microblogging or communication tool. I talked a while back about FriendFeed’s new look and feel making it seem [...]
The Twitter Blessing
I was just reading this morning on Techmeme the various sites that are discussing the closing down of the URL shortener service Tr.im. I then came across a post written by Robert Scoble called, "Twitter’s platform shortcomings." I have written a number of posts about Twitter here and we are seeing the company mature and [...]

There is something to say about getting a handwritten note in the mail. It may go back to the day when I was a young boy and we actually walked a mile to get the mail and it was so rewarding just to find that you had a letter from someone. My mother would read [...]
A Test For Monetizing Your Blog With Qumana

One By One Media Heading South For The Winter

I will be speaking at Wordcamp Miami as I did in Las Vegas on "Blogging for A Living", [...]
Hosted Blogging Applications; Another Example Why They Are Not For Me
I am constantly finding reasons why I am not a proponent of hosting blogging plans. I am a Wordpress supporter yet I don’t recommend hosting your blog on Wordpress.com, and in spite of the Google mantra of doing no evil, I tell many to run away from Google’s application Blogger. In a recent article by [...]
