New Years Resolutions 2008

It is that time of year again and I promised I would write out some New Year Resolutions – here they are.  My top five resolutions.  This year, I am heading for the extreme end of things.

  1. Continue writing.  I have been writing for some time and am still committed to it, so, I will have more e-books coming.
  2. Swim at least three times a week.  I have been getting to the pool more often since the summer and this January we are heading there three times and, possibly, up to five.
  3. Drink more water/herbal teas.
  4. Drink less beer.  Many people will scoff at this idea but I really want to cut beer out of my diet.  So, one beer per sitting is all I will drink.
  5. Read more!  I have fallen in love with audiobooks and I can’t get enough of them.

There are a few more things, but nothing as important as those.  For what they are worth.

About Me

buy the book, blog your world, feel like a million bucks

Just in case you didn't know, I co-wrote Blogging For Dummies! Before you send me any congratulations, questions, flowers, or blow me any number of kisses  - why don't you go buy ten copies and make me rich and famous.  

Or you could just buy a copy since it is a really good book and it has loads of great information for those of you out there who want to jump into blogging because it is fun and exciting.

podcasting

What else do I do? I talk out loud, record it, and post it on line. I chatter about all kinds of things. Some of the things are nerdy, some professional, and some of them are very much NSFW. Why? Because do them for myself and my non-work life. You can be the judge.

events

I do a little traveling here and there for technology conferences and what not. Here are the ones I am going to next or have attended recently.
