We all lead busy lives. It doesn’t mat­ter if you are a 9am-5pm cube dweller or a stay-at-home mom and dad. From the time we wake up until we finally close our eyes, we are busy. Time is already at a pre­mium, so how are we sup­posed to add social net­works into our jam-packed schedule? […]

Last year, I was watch­ing all the Twit­ter folks chat about NaNoW­riMo (National Novel Writ­ing Month) and NaBloPoMo (National Blog Post Month) and thought, “Oh, that’s cool.” Then I saw videoblog­gers chat­ting about NaVloPoMo (National Vlog Post Month) and thought, “Hey, if the videoblog­gers can cre­ate video every day in the month of Novem­ber, then […]

When we think of the word “Poverty” do we think of a home­less guy on a busy street cor­ner with a card­board sign in his hand? Or do we think of an impov­er­ished part of town where the houses are small and the fam­i­lies are large? Or per­haps we think of the images we see […]

What hap­pens when so many phe­nom­e­nal things are hap­pen­ing that you just don’t have the time to write about them? Sure, I tweet about every­thing that is going on, but Twit­ter is sim­ple. I can almost do that with my eyes closed. Writ­ing a blog post about all the cool stuff does take more of […]

On the off chance you’ve been liv­ing under a rock and haven’t heard the news, we just held the first ever Bar­camp in San Anto­nio this past week­end. It was an amaz­ing suc­cess and by far the eas­i­est camp-like event I’ve orga­nized. Con­sid­er­ing I’ve done two Pod­camps and a Startup Week­end in the last 16 […]

As some­one who is active in the social media arena, I have found par­tic­i­pat­ing in the social net­works  to be ben­e­fi­cial to both my per­sonal life and my busi­ness. So much so that I have been espous­ing the ben­e­fits to sev­eral groups in San Anto­nio. Shar­ing the ben­e­fits of par­tic­i­pat­ing on sites like LinkedIn, Facebook […]

This morn­ing we wanted to go out for a walk, but we were also hun­gry. So, I asked, “Why don’t we walk to break­fast?” We paused for a moment to con­sider dis­tance and tem­per­a­ture. It was early morn­ing so it was still cool out­side and the restau­rant we wanted to eat at wasn’t far at […]

Social Net­work­ing is all the rage right now. There are those who have been a part of it in some form or fash­ion since it’s incep­tion. There are oth­ers who are just hear­ing about it today. I became involved in Social Net­work­ing through pod­cast­ing in 2005. For me, it was about find­ing peo­ple who were […]

Today is July 5th. One day past the offi­cial hol­i­day in which we here in Amer­ica use to cel­e­brate our Inde­pen­dence. We became our own coun­try and by doing so in con­trol of our own des­tiny. I’ve titled this blog post Inde­pen­dence Day +1 to high­light the “Now what?” that inevitably fol­lows such a declaration. […]
