Hi Liz (Good Morning!!)
This is a particularly nice set of SOBs today. I’ve bookmarked a couple already and I haven’t visited them all yet!
Thanks.
ME Strauss said
Hi Katie,
I was just thinking about you, and here you are! That’s special! Yes, there are some great ones in this bunch!
katiebird said
I don’t think I mentioned it. But I’ve enjoyed the White Paper posts also. I think that’s a really valuable idea.
ME Strauss said
Thanks, Katie.
It’s great to know that!
TechZ said
Great selection, it has a bit of a theme to it I think…
I was just reading a similar post to that zulit.com one, about how many blogs can you handle. I think it all comes down to time and the reward you get from running each one.
ME Strauss said
Hi TechZ!
There is a madness to how I put them together, but I’ll never tell exactly what it is.
How many blogs I can handle is always one less than I currently have, I think.
Alvin Soon said
Hi Liz!
I have no idea how you read so many blogs and write so many entries either! Hats off to you and thanks for giving me a mention
ME Strauss said
Hi Alvin!
It’s like I keep telling everyone. I live inside your computer.
Thank you for noticing.
Joe said
Hey Liz,
Thanks for the nod, I just wish the 7 steps would work a little better. The junk has slowed, but not stopped.
ME Strauss said
Hey, Joe!
I thought that, maybe if I put the post up here, someone might have an idea to add to the list. You never know. . .
Joe said
I think that if someone could stop that kind of email hacking, they would get very rich, very quickly.
ME Strauss said
You’re probably right, but you know me; I never give up.
Joe said
Hey you,
If you have time, do a B-day post and add it to the carnival. Please…
ME Strauss said
Hey, you?
I’ll be doing a b-day post around the 24th. It’s on my calendar.
Joe said
I know you saw the big
Did you keep the link for it, if not my introductory post is going off tomorrow AM. The link is there a few times.
ME Strauss said
Now that you mention it, I don’t know. I did a purge on my email this morning. I think I have it, but I’ll be sure to stop by and get it if I don’t.
Joe said
Speaking of which, I haven’t done that for a while…
See ya later
John said
Hey, quit trying to make me post.
Thanks for the love, as always.
Terry said
Thanks for the linkage Liz,
The real question should be, “how many blogs can Liz handle”
I myself am blogged out now at posting on 8 blogs, and some are starting to suffer because of it.
I’m really interested in the idea of building blog networks, so that when you post on your main blog it creates another inbound to a string of blogs.
Have a good one,
Terry
ME Strauss said
Hi John,
Sorry. I know you’re busy trying to be a slacker. My mistaker there.
ME Strauss said
Hi Terry,
How many will tip her over the edge and turn her into raving old lady who says crazy things all day long? . . . Oh I already am that aren’t I ? Guess the pool is off!
How many blogs can Liz handle? I’m thinking we should start a pool . . .
A network, Terry, that’s ambitious . . . how exactly does that first post make string for all the rest?
Alvin Soon said
Haha Liz, you’re so warm!
I don’t mind you living inside my computer then
ME Strauss said
Thanks, Alvin.
It’s a relief to know you’re not going to evict me with winter coming on.
