beautiful birds
18Dec08Every now and again I feel the need to share something I love: Ann Wood’s handmade birds are one of these things. How can you not fall for these little lovelies, which are delicately made from vintage fabrics. I’m happy to say that I have one of the “Jollies” en route to brighten my home, [...]
thumbs up/thumbs down: reinforcing twitter relationships/commercial interruptions on pandora
17Dec08Thumbs up: I’m loving the direct messages from Twitter! Recently, I have received a handful of direct messages from folks that I have started to follow (thank you). What a wonderful way to thank people for following you, further enforce the online relationship, and promote the other aspects of your virtual presence.
deborah909 Thanks for following [...]
give the gift of sustainability
14Dec08This evening we came across a new gift option from Heifer International: Fund a Project. While I’ve always loved the mission of Heifer, this takes it to a new level that resonates in a very tangible way. You pick the project that you want to invest in.
We chose Zambia – Rural Community Development Project in [...]

12Dec08I’ll be completely honest, I love Twitter, but with one caveat, the spamming and Twitter has become spam-tastic. Just for the record I don’t gamble, model, rent stuff, need stuff or have any interest in acquiring such tastes. So if such Twitter members could please refrain from following me, it would be greatly appreciated.
Clearly I’m [...]
In recent conversations, the question of how much is too much keeps finding it’s way into the discussion. Everyday I go through a routine of logging into Facebook, firing up Pandora, checking my blog stats, visiting LinkedIn, sifting through my RSS feeds, updating my Twitter, all while sipping coffee, checking my email and outlining my [...]
It can’t all be doom and gloom this week, right. That’s exactly why I’m bringing a little fun and creative cheer your way (post this morning’s journalistic rant).
Well, actually Erin, of Design For Mankind is bringing on the fun, and the goodies, via a week of fun giveaways. Need a dose of something bright, playful [...]
I know, I know. I wasn’t going write, or even be online, this week. However, I’m not really writing anything, just spotlighting this morning’s piece on NPR.
The economy was already hard to ignore, but now the recent filing of the Tribune Company makes it impossible to ignore. We’re not only talking economically, but traditional methods [...]
blogs for social change
05Dec08This is my parting post prior to going offline in an effort to dig completely into finance, for Thursday’s final exam. With a little luck, I’ll survive with all limbs in tact.
However in order to satisfy my own blogging desires, and to leave you with something worthwhile, here’s Beth Kanter’s Top 10 Nonprofit Technology (NPTech) [...]
3. Tim reminded us that a medium is just a “means of human communication.” Media include everything from printed newspapers and blogs to smoke signals and church sermons (Courtesy of Tim Walker, Social Media Breakfast Austin).
I love this statement, it’s simple, to the point and something that is rooted in my own ideology. It’s all [...]
