I'm not exactly sure, but I think this could be my 100th post here on BeBee.
And I honestly have to say that the response I have been getting and the following I'm building have far surpassed my original guesstimate by maybe 100%.
Most of you who know me, know that I don't use social media for business prospecting in any overt way. My business comes through a different ether. It's the same for a lot of advertising creative people.
There are a couple of reasons why I blog at the frequency I do.
One of them is because I am a writer I have a compulsive need to write every day.
Another is that my business involves a lot of 'hurry up and wait' and the blogging keeps me active.
But the most important reason I do this is to share the knowledge and insights I have picked up over the years, and put them into some sort of form that people will find useful in terms of advancing their own communication skills.

I'm a big believer in the notion that there can never be enough good, useful content out there. That's what I like to read. And that's what I try to provide.

Me

Of course that's not all I do it for.
We all have our causes and our points of view on things.
I spent the first 10 years of my blogging life writing an op/ed column called The Couch Potato

280433a3.jpgChronicles, which were basically a mash up of personal opinion, reviews and critiques. I did about 450 of those over a 10 year period and it was a hell of a lot of fun.

Today, my primary interest here in The Land of The Uber Friendly Bees is more about communication: the good, the bad and the ugly of it all.

So I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who got something out of the first hundred columns, and assure you that I ain't done yet. Not even close.
