Congratulations to Bruce on completing his 71st marathon – this one in Chicago. Phoebe and I went downtown to surprise him at the finish line today. Our La Salle Bank Chicago Marathon wristbands got us into the Medalist tent – and to a few other places we weren’t supposed to be. Like the Victory tent…
“They’re too long. Go back to the video,” was one of the responses I got today when I asked my a few colleagues what they thought of my ezine. Watch a sample video where I talk about “What’s on My Whiteboard.” One of the demos we saw in our meeting was of me teaching the Video Marketing…

A few times a day I check in to see who’s hitting the blog and where they’re coming from. Nine times within the last few hours someone’s stopped by to check out my post Get Listed Locally – Online about a service called List and Found. Let’s give the people more of what they want,…
Trolling through my Google reader, I found a press release about Haystack Network Directory by Cerado. According to a quote from Red Herring on the site, "Haystack gives businesses the ability to build social networking capabilities into their websites, encouraging customers and sales reps to create more personal connections. Haystack can also be used to…
First saw this story about SecureGive’s ATMs in churches on Boing Boing – the Chicago Tribune picked it up over the weekend. Imagine being able to walk into your house of worship (or non-profit headquarters), swipe your debit card, punch in your PIN, enter the amount you want to give and get a receipt. There….
My fascination with the 9/27 episode began early when the 9/22 episode aired as a rerun. It kept building until it hit a crescendo early Wedneday morning when Lori Lizzard – a fab underground fashionista, called to tip me off to the Project Runway portfolio on the Olympus Fashion Week site. Lizz kept exclaiming, "It’s…

My call with Jenny Hamby is less than 2 hours away and I’m having a hard time pulling myself away from the research about the future of PR. Getting ready to present motivates me to run down the latest, the freshest, the most provactive research. And, most of the time my audiences comment: "Wow! I’ve…
Today will go down in history. Oprah’s making her on-air debut. On the radio. Everyday. With Friends. This lady is one multi-tasking media maven and I applaud her (and her friends) for that. The question for PR people is: will it be any easier to get on the air with Oprah & Friends Radio than…

Late this afternoon, I got a call from someone who found me on the Internet. When I hear that comment, it’s my cue to ask, "Tell me. . . exactly where did you find me on the Internet?" One place I forgot about is The Wealthy Mind trainer site. This caller wanted to know where…
Tonight the Glen Ellyn Children’s Chorus gave away a most precious gift – a private concert just for the parents. I’ve lost track of how many parent orientations and open houses we’ve been to in September. [I can tell you that going to every soccer game this week easily ate up 10 hours or so.]…
