I’ve been busy, doing client work and writing proposals.
As opposed to the social media superstars (right on Chris!).
I’ll be speaking at the July 14 meeting of the Fairfield County Public Relations Association. I’ve been asked to talk about how social media / web2.0 can help small businesses and sole practitioners reach a larger audience, something I think I have a bit of background to speak of.
So if you are around Stamford, CT on the morning of July 14, please join us. It promises to be a fun event.
Props to Listable
In no particular order and hardly complete…

Furthering my self-improvement by learning PHP experiment, I’ve tinkered a bit more with SimplePie. It took me about an hour to whip together Metro-North Bloggers, a collection of feeds from bloggers in Westchester, Rockland, Putnam, Duchess and Fairfield Counties – AKA, the northern New York suburbs.
In digging around for feeds, I’ve found there are a whole lot more bloggers in the area than I initially suspected. Hopefully some of my newly found blogging friends will add their feeds.
Next steps are offering the ability to subscribe to individual feeds, or the the whole shebang. I’d also like to color the headlines in the color of each Metro-North line, i.e., blue for someone who lives on the Harlem line, red for the New Haven line, etc.
A more ambitious goal is a means of auto-submission of feeds so I don’t have to manually add each new feed to the script that generates the page.
Speaking of significant dates, it was sometime earlier this month that this blog celebrated its fourth anniversary.
I had already been blogging for a couple of years at another location but the convergance of media, marketing, public relations and social media was too tempting a target so I abadoned my career as a daddy blogger and (if I’m not mistaken) I became PR blogger number 140-something.
Back then you could count all the significant marketing bloggers on your hands and toes. Now … well you know.
Here’s one of my early posts, where I think I really started hitting my stride.
