HOW Conference Post-Game Show
2008-05-22 21:50:00 Well I’m back in the Pacific Standard Time Zone after 4 days in Boston .

Free Toolsday for May 20th
2008-05-20 18:45:00 I learn so much just by hanging out on Twitter most of my day. I learned about a spectacular travel site called Trip It.com from Sam Harrelson.

Swapping Business Cards & Mining New Leads
2008-05-19 16:30:00 When so much business success depends on who you know, it’s a wonder more businesses don’t make a concerted effort to network.

Affiliate Thing Post-Show
2008-05-16 03:20:00 On Tuesday I had the pleasure of co-hosting the Affiliate Thing podcast with Shawn Collins of Affiliate Summit. Let me start by saying that I was unaware that it’s a live show since I always listen to it on iTunes or GeekCast.fm. I listened to the recording last night that’s up over at GeekCast.fm and ...

CourtesyCast 1
2008-05-13 16:00:00 I know in the podcast I say that I’m going to call this EthicsCast, but I’ve decided that CourtesyCast because it’s more appropriate. I’ve been meaning to talk about some common courtesy things to take into consideration when working. Some of these may be common sense, but you’d be surprised how many people ...

2008-05-08 23:14:00 Is there really a “trade show season”? I’ve heard this referred to time & again, but I seem to go year ’round so I don’t know what that season is!
