What marketers and anyone who wants to promote themselves can learn is the strategy of seeking out people-saturated public spaces (online or offline) and seek to populate that area with your message.

    Oh Liz, including Dosh Dosh is hardly fair, that will always be my favorite. This particular article caught my attention this week and I’ve been thinking a great deal about it. Where I feel this will work best for us is at conventions where people want to be included in our efforts. :)

    As always, GREAT list!! I had a great chuckle at the 8 ways to waste your summer vacation article too!!! :)

    Liz, thanks for linking to David Zinger’s Joyful Jubilant Learning post on pretzel meditation. This month our theme is learning centered around the number eight and there is quite a variety of posts thus far. The group is a really fun one to be part of; the conversations themselves provide infinite opportunity for learning and sharing.
