July 8, 2011Friday Recap: Cosmic Cupcake Unicorn Rainbow Sprinkles Edition
Not only did we get a long weekend and a short week, but we got to Friday Recap that much sooner! Got any plans this weekend? You know, after you’ve finished your delicious helping of recappy goodness. Hope you’ve got your buffet bib on. This one’s sloppy.
First things first. Have you started writing your article for the Small Biz Local Discovery Contest? Oh, you’re still trying to pick your topic? Understandably. There’s so much you could write about with a prompt like this: “How would you advise a small business owner on how best to use SEO, PPC or Social Media to drive conversions to a local business?” But don’t dilly dally. The deadline for contest submissions is Tuesday, July 19! After that, entries will be put to your vote to help determine the winners. And the lucky grand-prize winner will get a free pass to SMX East in September. See, toldja not to wait.

This feels… familiar. I guess once you learn to ride a Friday Recap you never forget. Or is it write? You know what I’m saying.
If you missed it earlier this week, I’ve rejoined Bruce Clay, Inc. and the blog. I think they put something in the coffee here. The night sweats and hallucinations were getting unbearable so I’m happy to be back.

A Change of Perspective, a Change of Heart: Why I’m Back and a Better Blogger for It
::stretches, yawns:: Good Monday morning! I hope you had a tranquil weekend. I did. In fact, I found myself pondering some of the mysteries of our modern age. Like, another September 11 anniversary just came and went. Are we ever going to find Osama bin Laden? And, what will be the popular Halloween costume this year? I’m hearing Chilean coal miner bandied about. I’d look super cute in a hardhat and overalls.
How about you? Are you revelling in the final days of this Indian summer? Soaking up the sun before it’s time to store the barbecue? What? It’s June, you say? Talk about a power nap.
Last time you saw me here was September of last year. Since then I’ve been living the fast and loose life of a freelance SEO blogger, copywriter and social media consultant.
