Thanks for stopping by! Hey, why don't you do what all the cool kids are doing and subscribe to my RSS feed? You know you want to, so go ahead, be bad, be very very bad... :) Thanks.
I have gotten tagged a couple of times recently and I have been behind in responding to them, my apologies. I thought I would bang out all my tag responses all in one post. Ok, here it goes, in order of when I was tagged.
Antman tagged me on a Magazine Meme asking what magazines do you read on a daily basis. Here’s my list in no particular order:
- Time
- Newsweek
- Wired
- BusinessWeek
- AdvertisingAge
- OMMA
- Red Herring (Now online)
That’s about it, most of the stuff like many others, I just read all online and don’t get the actual magazine. Thanks for the tag Antman and thank you for your kind words in your shout-out.
Marty tagged me for a 5 Goals Meme. My top 5 goals at the moment again in no particular order:
- Get off the ground the couple of start-up ideas that I have been thinking and mapping out for WAY too long.
- Move into the next phase with several of my clients so that we could really start doing some interesting things.
- Spend more time in the personal life and spend less time thinking about work or other things when I actually am enjoying my personal time.
- Be healthier! Start taking better care of myself. I am not a young pup anymore.
- Start going to more conferences.
Thanks Marty for the tag!
And finally, Matt tagged me for the 5 Top Reasons I Blog. Here’s my list:
- To be apart of an incredibly interesting and exciting community.
- To continually learn and improve my skill sets in any number of different ways.
- A reason to write, without this blog I would not be writing close to as much because I am lazy and that is not good.
- I love the opportunity blogging provides me that on any given day I could meet someone new who will interest me and hopefully teach me something.
- I like holding both people and companies accountable for their actions. Blogging allows me to share my opinions when things are done right and when they are not.
Thanks Matt for the tag.
UPDATE: I am sorry, I missed Meg’s tag. I think my link checker skipped over Australia. I am sorry Meg. Meg tagged me to choose 5 blogs that make me think. That is a tough one as so many do, but here is a list off of the top of my head.
- Andy Beard - Great content, well written articles, but he makes me crazy with this PPP stuff.
- Sean Howard - CrapHammer is always well written and makes me think even though he is in Canada.
- Steven Phenix - 10,000 Marshmallows is a site I was recently introduced to and Steven provides some good insight and articles that make you ponder.
- FranticIndustries - Another recent addition to my RSS Reader. Well written and knowledgeable posts that I have been enjoying recently.
- Brains on Fire - A blog that I have read for a long time, but for some reason never really mention. I like how many of their authors provide great information, but do it with heart.
I am going to do this. Instead of tagging specific people, I am going to have an open invite to any and all who reads this to take a meme! If one sounds interesting to you, you’re tagged, run with it, make it yours. Thanks.

What about my tag

Meg - I am so sorry. I will add yours to my post as well.
No problem Cord. I like the memes that come thru on occasion that help me to reflect for a few moments. I thought you’d get a kick out of it too.
Have a good one……Marty
Thanks Cord
Will have to check out your 2-5 picks.
Thanks Cord for the reply back. Missed hanging around lately. Work just getting in the way. Hope you are well.
Hey!
Dammit.
Ouch, just shows how busy I have been offline for the last week, taking me 4 days to spot this.
8 years ago I was being told by multiple advertisers and computer games publishers that if someone buys a computer game, they don’t want to see advertising in it.
One of these days I am going to have fun doing some research into how many patents Google owns I could probably invalidate.
I think I have about 6 memes I have to catch up on
