Blogtipping Day–Where’s Yours?

May 1, 2006 by Liz

Link Love Costs Nothing

Easton Ellsworth at Blogwire declared today official Blogtipping Day and I’m in. How about you? As
the song goes “Give a little bit . . .” Here’s how it works.

  • Choose three or more bloggers you admire and link to them,
  • List three reasons why you admire each one.
  • Then add a tip at the end.

That’s all there is to it.

Janice Myint

  • Janice is the best at her job. She knows what she’s doing.
  • Every email and message is filled with smiles and energy. I feel like a valued customer every time she talks to me.
  • She takes on big complaints as personal quest, and tackles them like a warrior.

Tip: Janice, be careful. The whole blogosphere is going to be proposing marriage to you, and trying to steal you away.

Jeremy Wright

  • Jeremy’s a great guy with a heart as big as the world.
  • He works hard, doing thousands of things, but never loses his humanity.
  • He makes things happen for other people and asks nothing in return.

Tip: Jeremy, don’t wear yourself out. We need you just as you are.

Brian Clark

  • Brian teaches me more about writing every time I read his blog.
  • He has been a friend to me beyond the call of duty.
  • I feel lucky to have him in my address book.

Tip: Brian, stop, breathe and look at what you’ve built. It’s fabulous.

That was fun. I hope I get time to do more before the day is over.

Net Neutrality Is in Jeopardy

April 24, 2006 by Liz

Net Neutrality

Brian Clark at Copyblogger defines Net Neutrality in way that we can all understand it.

All of your current Internet marketing plans depend on Net Neutrality. And likely a lot that you do online outside the scope of business depends on it too. Net Neutrality allows everyone to compete on a level playing field and is the reason that the Internet is a force for economic innovation, civic participation and free speech. —The Four Horsemen of the Internet Apocalypse

Why is Brian talking about Net Neutrality?

Because Doc Searls is . . . and so is Jeff Pulver . . . and so am I — on all three of my blogs. [Read more…]
