Yes, it’s me and I’m back in town … for the moment anyway. The contract I was managing in New Mexico ended on May first and I got back in town on the 15th. I’ve been shuffling the junk around my condo into meaningful groupings in what passes for my idea of a “decorating scheme.” [...]

An interesting evening
Saturday, February 10, 2007
Tonight I attended a gathering of a number of bloggers from here in Knoxville and the surrounding area at Calhoun’s on Kingston Pike. Glenn Reynolds was kind enough to post links to the blogs of those in attendance. The affair was surprisingly well-attended as we overran the table set aside for the fifteen that the [...]
New wrinkles for KnoxBloggers
Friday, January 26, 2007
Yesterday in a series of email exchanges, Mike and Daryl and I discussed how we might modify what we are doing with the KnoxBloggers group so as to encourage more people to participate and at the same time place less demands on those with busy schedules. We came up with some ideas that we think [...]
A follow up from Victor
Saturday, November 18, 2006
Exhausted from a long day of work, late last night Victor passed along a link to an informative article in The Economist, called “Going Pro.” He asked that either Mike Neel or I share it with the rest of the Knoxbloggers group as a follow up to his presentation last Wednesday. Mission accomplished, and thanks [...]
An excellent meeting with a disappointing outcome
Thursday, November 16, 2006
Victor Agreda did a fantastic job of sharing his experiences in monetizing his blog at tonight’s meeting of the Knoxbloggers group. And he gave us several useful tips about how we might follow his lead and do the same with our blogs. It was, to me, a very interesting meeting. A number of people expressed [...]
The best blog in the world
Wednesday, November 15, 2006
One of the websites that I follow through it’s RSS feed is Mediashift by Mark Glaser. In yesterday’s entry, he reports that last Friday in Berlin he participated in the jury that selected the 15 Best Weblogs in the World for 2006, or “the BOBs” (Best of the Blogs), from among the 5,500 that had [...]
Bloglines
Friday, November 10, 2006
When I began using Firefox 2.0 as my browser the other day, I needed to replace Flock’s “My News” to keep track of the RSS feeds that I monitor. I chose to subscribe to Bloglines. It is “a FREE online service that helps you subscribe to and manage lots of web information, such as news [...]
Scrybe
Saturday, November 4, 2006
New products appear almost daily on the web. It’s hard to keep up with what’s available, but fortunately subscribing to the RSS feeds of people whom I respect helps to alert me to some of those new things. Such was the case this morning when I noted on the URLgreyhot blog the author’s enthusiasm about [...]
The November Knoxbloggers meeting
Saturday, November 4, 2006
I see that Mike has already added the description of the agenda for the November Knoxbloggers meeting. Good for you, Mike. It looks like it might be an interesting meeting, because it deals with almost everyone’s favorite subject — making money. Check it out, and come and join us if you can. It could prove [...]
