I don’t have a blogroll like many blogs because I think they get stale and are usually filled with the usual suspects. But there are still many great blog out there I want to take the time to recommend. With that intent I plan on spotlighting 3 blogs every month that I think you should [...]
What do you call blogs that aren’t on a blogging platform? I call them non-blogs? I noticed this trend a few years ago when I would discover very active people in the social media space who didn’t have blogs using tools like StumbleUpon and then later FriendFeed for their blog.

I’ve blogged here almost every day but not yesterday. But I did post, A LOT not just here. Why? Well because I was putting into practice some of the things I’ve been talking about here and consulting on with my client. I actually got to get my hands dirty, something I don’t do much of [...]

And lately I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about the relationship between people and content and how we think about both our Web presence as well as our content distribution. Warning: [...]
