This year I am being more selective in my conference attendance. Almost every year in the past 5 years, I have purchase a Blogher ticket but I haven’t always gone. I have three core conferences in mind this year. This year, I don’t even know WHEN Blogher is. This one conference that I will not […]

March 14, 2013 by Leave a Comment
When I signed into my Google Reader account today, I got a popup announcement that Google Reader was retiring as of July 1, 2013. I’ve already lost Adsense for RSS from Google and will also be losing iGoogle. This is all setting me into a panic to think WHAT IS NEXT for Google to get […]

It’s always nerve racking to go on the news – especially live. During the holidays, I was doing spots on WTHR (13) during the “Saving You Money” segment. This particular week, Scott Swan was out and Anne Marie Tiernon was filling in. She was very easy to talk to. I would guess you would have […]
