If you read my personal blog you may know that each year I choose two words to meditate on and use to be better overall instead of having a traditional resolution. This year the words were “global” and “balance”. I’m doing pretty well on taking my company and myself and making it more global, both [...]

I hoped that the volume of people pinging me after Chris discussed his rates would die down, but since it didn’t, I thought I’d quickly answer the questions. While I’m at it, I thought I’d talk a bit about perception and worth. Enjoy.

A while back, I read this post by Olivier Blanchard which focused on ISMA, an organization said to certify social media consultants.

A quick video between phone calls today to give my thoughts on Google’s Buzz:
