No, I won't be applying for the job, but thanks for the ego boost!
I feel that a job like this should go to a born evangelist - and I'm not it!
Cheers, and thanks for the comment,
Allan

Yes, she is definitely a fighter and an overcomer.
She's done something that, as I say, most only dream about.
She has shown a lot of courage in going in the first place!

Picking the real people seems to be getting harder. I'm beginning to not add people who can't use a real photograph, and who don't engage.
People who can't see the value of transparency are the ones who are missing out.

This in turn puts more responsibility on marketers to behave responsibly on these platforms, and to interact.
Taken, you're not building a list!
You are building a network of friends and asscoiates, which in the long run is more effective than a list can ever be...
Cheers!

I think that it is refreshing to see someone make a stand, and build quality relationships with people rather than giant lists of 'prospects'.
Thanks for being totally real - it makes it so much easier to write about!
Cheers!

G'day Jim,
Locally I buy meat from Peter, stationery from Virginia, have my accountancy done by Bronwyn and have my computer gear upgraded and maintained by Simon.
These are all real life people that I deal with all the time, and even if sometimes their prices are a little more than their competitors, I deal there because of relationship!
These people have proven themselves over time, and so I continue to deal with them!
Why should things be different on line?
Cheers

My time on dial up speed was good for me in the sense that I learned how the other half lived.
I revisited the issue today when I posted a video on Plurk, and someone in Africa couldn't watch it because they were on dial up.
What if our readers or visitors don't tell us our sites are loading to slowly?
If they are here for the first time they might just vote with their feet and leave...

I saw a plugin earlier that is supposed to speed wordpress up, but I am going down the streamlining route first.
What I like about this theme is that the post loads almost instantly, and the rest follows.
It's an ongoing process though...
Cheers Kokoda Girl!

A lot of people add a lot of different colors and gizmos just because they can, but if it is about drawing people to a site, then those people need to be looked after.
I try and use small paragraphs, with bold text here and there, to help readers' eyes move more easily down the page.
Cheers!
