I was a blogging madman on Thursday night, and without it, there’d be almost nothing to include in this roundup.
I know the economy is in trouble (”tanking” seems to be a common description) … and the election has people on edge … things seem to be spinning out of control (they’re really not) … and everyone’s nervous about the general state of the world.
No worries. All is right with the world. My fantasy football team, the Instant Breakfast, is back in 1st place.
Rest assured, this is the normal way of events. I’m the two-time defending champ in this fantasy football league, which is made up of my fellow marketing peers. Yep. I’m feeling good. No spinning out of control here. No nerves. Not on edge. Just the usual — including a four-game winning streak after losing in Week One.
I’m just doing my part to live up to the sign that hangs on my office wall……
I started a new job this week doing some writing for Search Engine Land and can’t decide if I should add the blog posts from there into this weekly recap. I’m thinking I won’t, since that’s a paid gig and this is more about personal/hobby blogging. But maybe down the road I’ll change my mind. Who knows?
That’s all. Not too bad for the week.
One of the benefits of joining the staff at Search Engine Land is that it’s an authority site in the marketing/tech field. SEL articles regularly appear on popular sites like TechMeme … and it even happens when I’m the author:
I remember the first time I hit the digg home page; this is just as cool, but in a different way.
Here’s the TechMeme link to see it in person. 
The family will be surprised to see this photo. I have matching black desk accessories: a briefcase and a dog:
Sparky isn’t usually allowed in my office, but it was either let him in tonight or listen to him b*tch and moan outside the door. I’m a softie, so he’s in. I think they look nice together down there on the floor, don’t you?
