BlogIt is an interesting idea… Being able to broadcast your thoughts from one place outward is great. And, yet, doing it from within Facebook is […]

It keeps people in touch with each other, facilitates introductions that may otherwise never have happened, and so much more. Since I first started writing this blog a year and a half ago, I’ve received emails and introductions from all sorts of interesting people […]
