Mediaphyter – A Communications Cocktail

The last few weeks have been zany. After a whirlwind trip to Washington D.C. for the Gartner IT Security Summit I came back to find my car was burgled. Dealt with that and then began the flurry which was an incredibly challenging yet rewarding work project while also launching my new ZDNet social media blog. I was starting to settle into a groove and start writing on this blog again when WHAM (literally) my car got crunched (with me in it) and I’ve been dealing with those after-effects all week.

So, two things:

1) You might want to keep your cars away from me for the time being as I seem to have very bad “car-ma”
2) I am very sorry for the lack of original content

It is not my intention to solely use this blog as a push vehicle (er, maybe vehicle is a bad choice of words right now) for my Feeds blog but right now that’s about all I got. But look for blogs soon on my next steps in my goal to support women in technology, as well as best practices in analyst relations, and who knows what else might pop up.

In the meantime, please do enjoy the ZDNet blog. And don’t forget about me.

OH YEAH – recent ZDNet Feeds topics:

• The Associated Press plays role of Metallica in Napster-esque war with bloggers
• MySpace answers questions about redesign and reputation
• Corporate intranets via SaaS are the future but are not without risk

:-)

Hey – no worries.

Stay safe and healthy and if you work hard, the other things will fall into place.

(hopefully, right?)

Wow! Sorry to hear about all your automotive misfortune. I’ll keep reading your blogs as long as you keep posting them, and they keep showing up in your FriendFeed.

And BTW, I think you should copyright your “car-ma” phrase.
