Has LinkedIn helped you too?

LinkedIn has helped me in my career and business too many ways to list and I know loads of other people that feel exactly the same way. And, because I’m a “friend” of LinkedIn, I was invited to participate in the launch of their 100 Million Members campaign. I responded immediately because I recognized that this would likely be something I could utilize in my own personal branding efforts and because it has to be one of the savviest social media marketing campaigns I’ve come across in a very long time. Just think about how much viral activity this is going to generate….it’s mind-boggling.

If you take a few minutes to submit your story to them you just might find yourself featured in this clever campaign too. Best of luck!

DC in January

DC was uber cold, but after our 44th new president was sworn in our hearts were warm enough to handle any type of chilly weather. Plus, being from Chicago, we kept saying, “What’s the big deal?!”  P.S. We, of course, bought a t-shirt from that vendor behind Maria (in the black hat).

Please help find Nicholas

My husband’s co-worker (and fellow HALO player) has been missing for a week now….maybe you can help his family locate him? Below is a link to a video folks at his office made today to help with the search. Please send it to as many people as you can. If the video gets a lot of hits hopefully it will be more prominent on YouTube.

His family sends thanks to everyone who has worked so hard to help in this search.
