"Google yourself" should be added to the list. I even developed a virtual CV so my resume contained multi-media and lived online. Paper resumes are so last millennium! Thanks for chiming in - great additions!

So glad to hear you're doing well and staying active out there, Curtis.

Online activity doesn't effectively substitute for meeting people in person. Thanks for stopping by to comment!

Getting to know you has truly been a pleasure. "Social media is, at its best, a catalyst for connecting people in the real world." Indeed. Thanks!

You're incredibly expressive in so many ways and I'm happy to live in a world where it's easy for you to spread your light. Even though both long for simpler times now and then ;) Wed, 22 Jul 2009 18:00:21 +0000 http://newmedialisa.com/index.php/the-secret-to-discovering-whether-or-not-youre-a-blogger/#IDComment27981904 http://newmedialisa.com/index.php/the-secret-to-discovering-whether-or-not-youre-a-blogger/#IDComment27981781 Yeah, no kidding - like deciding between washing my kids clothes and writing a post. If they have clean socks, I'm writing.

Nice to hear I'm not the only one who lays in bed at night thinking about things I want to write about.

Those lawyers need you, Jayne! They're lucky to have people like you out there. Wed, 22 Jul 2009 16:34:49 +0000 http://newmedialisa.com/index.php/business-people-dont-dance-on-the-bleeding-edge-of-social-media/#IDComment27975852 http://newmedialisa.com/index.php/business-people-dont-dance-on-the-bleeding-edge-of-social-media/#IDComment27974961 "The boredom of insiders" - astute observation. Whatever the reason, I hope people are not discounting the impact of online efforts because of a few vocal naysayers. People like to share and interact. The vehicles will evolve but the premise is here to stay.

And for good reason. Thanks for adding your always-more-than two cents. Sat, 4 Jul 2009 03:21:13 +0000 http://newmedialisa.com/index.php/take-your-blog-vertical-with-lateral-thinking/#IDComment26270588 http://newmedialisa.com/index.php/take-your-blog-vertical-with-lateral-thinking/#IDComment26254052 True - but it really doesn't matter. As long as you're drawing conclusions and synthesizing the information you take in, rather than simply restating what's already been said or established, you're on the right track to better writing. Our assumptions about most things are highly inaccurate, but that doesn't make them any less compelling. Thanks for joining the conversation!

Anything that helps me save time is fine by me. Thanks as usual for the helpful suggestion Tom.

We all benefit from your *coff* fluidity ;) Thu, 2 Jul 2009 04:18:07 +0000 http://newmedialisa.com/index.php/the-secret-to-discovering-whether-or-not-youre-a-blogger/#IDComment26090980 http://newmedialisa.com/index.php/the-secret-to-discovering-whether-or-not-youre-a-blogger/#IDComment26090831 We prioritize what's most important to us. When blogging moves up the ladder of importance, you'll know - because you won't be able to concentrate until you post!

Thanks for sharing YOUR intelligence with us David!

I suppose too many ideas is better than not enough. Too much of a good thing? Thu, 2 Jul 2009 04:13:42 +0000 http://newmedialisa.com/index.php/the-secret-to-discovering-whether-or-not-youre-a-blogger/#IDComment26090722 http://newmedialisa.com/index.php/the-secret-to-discovering-whether-or-not-youre-a-blogger/#IDComment26090642 I hope they change their lives in a good way!

I love walking and running too - exercise definitely inspires! Thanks for adding your ideas.

You are an inspiration to me!

Gary Larson rules! I'd never leave him (or you) out. Fri, 1 May 2009 01:59:47 +0000 http://newmedialisa.com/index.php/finding-inspiration-on-twitter/#IDComment20317117
