Open Mic 7pm Chgo Time: It’s Back to School Night!

August 19, 2008 by Liz

Join Us Tonight

Remember When Life Was Easy and School Was Hard?

Every year the first days of school bring back the idea of new clothes, new pads of paper, new supplies. Tonight it’s about school days . . . remember firsts from school? what did we take for granted? what do we wish we could have back from school days now? what did we think was hard that was really easy?

Oh, and bring example links to share —

The rules are simple — be nice.

Do be nice. 🙂

The Mic is On: We’re Talking about YOUR Ultimate Retreat!

August 12, 2008 by Liz

It’s Like Open Mic Only Different

The Mic Is On

Here’s how it works.

It’s like any rambling conversation. Don’t try to read it all. Jump in whenever you get here. Just go to the end and start talking. EVERYONE is WELCOME.
The rules are simple — be nice.

There are always first timers and new things to talk about. It’s sort of half “Cheers” part “Friends” and part video game. You don’t know how much fun it is until you try it.

You with a LIVE Audience . . .

Everyone seems to have a seminar or a retreat of some sort. What would yours be? Tonight it’s about YOUR ultimate seminar or retreat:

  • What’s the draw?
  • Would you do it alone or with a partner?
  • Where would it take place?
  • How many in the audience?
  • Go ahead DREAM BIG!!

And, whatever else comes up, including THE EVER POPULAR, Basil the code-writing donkey . . . and flamenco dancing (because we always get off topic, anyway.)

The Mic Is On: We’re Talking About eBooks!

Let’s Talk eBooks

The Internet almost drowns us in information. Savvy folks know that, with the right search skills, we find the answer to almost any question. Does it make sense to publish information in the form of eBooks and other information products? Tonight it’s about eBooks:

  • Do we read them?
  • Do we write them?
  • Do we buy them?
  • Do we sell them?
  • Has an eBook changed your life in any way?
  • ahem . . .

The Mic is On: Friends, Fans, and Mostly Trolls

Be On the Watch for Internet Trolls!

We meet our first friends growing up. Sometimes we find we have a fan. It’s a shock when we bump into a troll. They’ve been around since the Three Billy Goats Gruff tried to cross the bridge. You can find them in the World of Warcraft on Twitter, and in the comment box of your own blog.

Here’s a link about them and a guide to handling the problem. It’s only a few paragraphs, but it will get you in the mood because tonight it’s about trolls:

  • trolls we once dated
  • troll dolls & trolls in fairy tales
  • trolls who interrupt Internet conversations
  • ahem . . .

And, we’ll talk about whatever comes up, (because we always get off topic, anyway.)
