Facebook started pushing a new feature a little while ago that let’s you share “you’re a fan” of something on a personal blog or website. I think Facebook is doing a good job at trying to connect what you have in Facebook to what you might have outside of Facebook (i.e. a blog).
That’s not to say that I think that Facebook couldn’t do better, but I think the more that companies can connect their Facebook presence with the rest of the internet the greater their influence will be in social media.
And, speaking of benefiting, I think that SurveyGizmo is now one of my most favorite tools. I’m excited to highlight what I’m doing with their tool in a later post (it’s kind of hush-hush right now).

There really isn’t anything as stressful as changing blog platforms. I thought I wouldn’t have a problem taking my last blog (built on BlogEngine.Net) and pulling the contents into this new WordPress blog, because there seemed to be enough information about using BlogML to make the switch. But, it didn’t work. So, I’m left with a completely clean slate.
So, I’ve decided to embrace this clean slate with a new clean theme. (I love this design!)
If there is a post that you’re looking for and haven’t found yet, let me know. I can probably resurrect individual posts from a backup I made of the site, but doing a complete transfer of all the old site’s content seems like a long and painful process.
So, with this clean slate, is there anything else you’d like changed in this blog? More video? More pictures? More dramatic prose? I know there’s only like three people that have ever ‘regularly’ comment (you know who you are Jethro, Gail, and Tom), so I don’t expect a lot of direction, but every little thing helps.
