Liz,
Thanks for including me. I’ve posted some additional links for using body language here http://www.delaneykirk.com/2007/03/russell_jennife.html
I think the info on high and low status is very interesting and useful.
Liz – glad you liked that headline. I’m not sure it’s a Copyblogger killer, but I do what I can. *smile*
Hi Delaney!
I love the series you have going. It’s practical for all presenters not just teachers. 🙂
Ben,
I think that Brian would totally go for that one. 🙂
Very good article, the “brand naming”. Indeed a “great find”. I really enjoyed the others as well. But the first is more on “my yard”. Thanks. 🙂
Hi Mihaela!
That was strong article from strategic name development. I thorough enjoy their blog. They know linguistics as well as branding. It’s a cool combination and often comes together to make for a fun read like this one. 🙂
Thanks for noticing it. 🙂
Liz, you’ve done it again – another tremendous list. I always find things from your posts that I wouldn’t have even stumbled across on my own – bravo!
Hi Dwayne,
That’s my goal to out curious the curious! 🙂
I’m grinning!
Thanks for the link love, darlin’!! I was pretty proud of that post considering I wrote it at 4:00am in the Seattle airport on NO sleep!! 😀

Hey Wendy!
It’s exceptional in every way!
Mihaela, thank you so much for your compliments on our blog.
Liz, you’re doing a great job of capturing such insightful and diverse thinking in the blogoshpere with your weekly SOB Cafe lists and we’re elated to get such positive feedback from you. We do strive to balance our posts with analysis from both a linguistics and brand strategy perspective.
Thanks again, Mihaela and Liz.
