Oh, hello, BUSIEST WEEK OF MY LIFE.
So I’ve been out of the blogging loop for the past couple of weeks, what with moving offices, being bogged down with launching a new website, three new blogs, a podcast, a recruiting communications plan, a giant media launch, conferences, and the usual day-to-day. As a result, I’ve got a lot of juice to squeeze from my mind grapes.
- Todd Defren and Shift Communications recently released the Social Media Newsroom. For me, this could not have come at a better time, because I was right in the middle of redesigning my own newsroom. I think it’s a great prototype, and I was especially happy because it validated a lot of things that I was thinking. I’m going to write more about it next week, but for now, check it out for yourself.
- For those of you in Ottawa, Paul Wells of MacLean’s will be speaking to the Third Monday meetup group on Monday at Fresco Cielo on Elgin. I’ll be there… should be a good time – details.
- For those who are unsure of the ROI of blogging, consider this – in the past two weeks, I have had four calls from different people that I have met directly as a result of this site, with potential business for Fuel Industries. It occurs to me that questioning the ROI of blogging is like questioning the ROI of talking to other people.
- If you know anyone who is looking for an incredible job in the advertising industry as an account executive, project manager, flash developer or web developer, have them contact me, or point them to this page. All contractually obligated loyalty aside – you could not ask for a better company to work for.
That’s it for now. Hopefully, I’ll be back in blogging form now that the craziness of the move is somewhat behind us, and now we only have to deal with the craziness of remaining construction.
