		<description>Pam, if only you were triplets.   Time is always an issue, good news is that we don&#039;t have to do everything, be everything.  I look forward to Thursday&#039;s show.

Blake, thanks for your wise input.</description>

		<description>I agree with you.  Networking and social media are definitely worth whatever you put into them.  Mass-collecting names will probably get you some sales, but it pays off to choose your network carefully, finding the people who are relevant to you.  The collaborations, valuable customers, and friendships are more worthwhile to me in the end.</description>

		<description>You always offer great tips and insight, Heidi.  I haven&#039;t joined Ryze.  I&#039;m a member of linkedin, but don&#039;t know how to use it.  It&#039;s frustrating to me, because I simply do not have the time to learn right now.  I need to clone three of me, so if you know any tips on that, I would greatly appreciate them.  LOL</description>

		<description>Google did some odd stuff on their last update.  My main business site and my blog both took a one point hit, and yet I get significant traffic at both of them.  I&#039;m not quite sure what happened either, but most people seem to have taken the same type of hit.  Overall, as long as I still get traffic, I&#039;m not going to worry about it.

And I&#039;m not sure if you saw my &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ttmitchellconsulting.com/Mitchblog/2008/10/04/the-viability-of-your-platform/&quot;&gt;Ryze&lt;/a&gt; post, but they&#039;ve certainly gone from what they used to be, unfortunately.</description>

		<description>There are rules of etiquette for online social networking -- like there are for everything. Like most things in life, some don&#039;t follow them. I like to think of them as unaware. I love our ning social network. The originator monitors closely and when someone takes advantage of the group with emails, etc., he writes them a nice note explaining why not. As for friends, I add them when I want to ask a question based on their profile via private mail in lieu of on the comment wall. Great subject, Heidi! I&#039;ll watch for more from you on this timely subject.</description>
