David Steele's new blog
David Steele, a long-time friend and former client (from my consulting days), has decided to take the plunge and start a blog. He's at the very beginning of his efforts, but I like the name he has conceived of for himself -- the "heartland storyteller." Here's the link to his blog, spelled out in case you want to make note of it, http://heartlandstoryteller.blogspot.com/.

Good luck, Dave. I'm looking forward to your first post and all the ones that follow. Have fun.

Hi Perry,

I've recently re-started blogging. Before I worked for a technology company (Sun) that had a corporate blog site, so I got used to having a lot of hits and a fair few comments. Now that I'm using blogspot, it seems that all the comments I receive are spam. But I'm still optimistic of finding a few readers!

But because I've had the chance to experience the lack of any real response to my blog, I've made a pact with myself - I will read and leave comments on two new blogs for every time I post.

So I just wanted to say that at least someone out here read several posts on your blog! I really like your writing style, I enjoyed the selection of literay quotes, especially the one about immortality which seems particularly evasive if one hopes to leave a legacy through blogging ;). And I loved that photo of the Alaskan sky.

Thanks also for your pointer to CEOExpress; it's a nice compact site and has more than a few links I haven't seen before.

My blog is over at http://colmsmyth.blogspot.com if you feel like dropping over for a read and/or a chat.

All the best,
Colm.
 
Thanks for your kind words, Colm.

I did visit your blog, and since you've only recently started blogging again, I went back and read your entire series of posts.

Tomorrow, I plan to visit your blog and post a comment there, to return the favor. In fact, from what I've read so far, I think I'd enjoy visiting your site with some regularity.

I think your idea of your pact with yourself to post two comments for each post you make is an admirable one. You may even inspire me to adopt such a strategy myself.

More later on your blog. Again, thanks for the visit and the comment.

Perry
