A Change to the Blog (and Where You'll Find Me)

As many of you know, I've struggled with what this blog should be. It's changed over the years, from being an outlet for my thoughts; to being one focused on supreme customer service (or the lack of); to an update on job search techniques.

I've done book reviews, run some pop culture tournaments, and spoken about my hobbies.

Ten years ago, this might've been fine; but today, successful blogs have more singular focuses.

So, starting in a week or two, I'll be posting most of my "professional-type" posts to LinkedIn. I was approved to be a publisher on the site (which means a *whole* lot of people will be able to read me in the future). I'm looking forward to some great conversations.

I'll focus on internal communications, customer service and -- for now -- the job search.

This blog won't go away; from time-to-time I'll be cross-posting stuff, and I actually have a few blog posts in the hopper; but it will definitely be less 'professional' and more pop culture. I'll keep the professional stuff on the LinkedIn page; and the more fun stuff here. Don't worry, it won't turn into a ghost town (inside joke).

Starting in July, I'll also be upping my use of Twitter and Google+ (and, most likely, by default, Hootsuite), as I have loads of interesting content I've accumulated that I'd love to share, once I get a system and process in place.

Obviously, I'll keep you all posted -- along with new links to my LinkedIn author page and my other social media channels.
