Hi folks!

Okay, I know it’s been WEEKS since I posted here.  For those of you who blog, you know that sometimes you can get a “block” just like writers talk about.  You start making deals with yourself, promising you will post tomorrow…which turns into a week and next thing you know, you have several thoughts backed up on the blog pipeline.

Well, I’m taking my cue from a recent blog post Brian Gardner did where he apologized for being quiet on his blog, mentioned the things that had him a bit busy and moved on!

May 2009 was spent attending IRL (In Real Live) Events.  In fact, I did 5 in one week and that’s more than I do in a year (not kidding).  Being around non-technical people who use technology (aka bloggers, folks on Twitter and those with iPhones) has shown me a new way to connect with and enjoy events.   Before, technology always seemed like an uncomfortable subject everyone wanted to avoid.  Now, people can’t wait to tell you how they found Twitter, installed a cool new iPhone app or how they blog for their company!
