How you can help a child hear for $10
Close your eyes for a moment and listen to the world around you.

Today in Cincinnati, Ohio we’re expected to get 3-5 inches of snow. Whenever an event like this happens, it’s always fun to watch Twitter for the presence of the hashtag #snOMG. As I watched, I mentioned how funny it would be if Morgan Freeman narrated the #snOMG tweets. I’m no Morgan [...]

I first found out about Ze Frank about two or three years ago when I’d heard of other podcasters talking about “The Show“, a daily video podcast he did for an entire year. While browsing C.C. Chapman’s blog a couple months ago, I saw a post entitled “Creating Moments with Ze [...]

Sure, I could have posted these as several, rapid-succession tweets. I often use Twitter that way. Instead, I’ve opted to use this post as a brain dump of sorts.
Friday we had another successful Dayton-area lunchtime meetup of folks I know through Twitter and social media. Carole Hicks, by the way, has [...]

John S. Kennedy, a local Cincinnati connection in my professional network, is gone.
I just got off the phone with his mother-in-law. I was concerned by some comments I saw through his Facebook and Twitter. His mother-in-law confirmed that John passed away last week.
I first met John at the LinkedCincinnati LIVE [...]
New Media Cincinnati – October 2008 Meetup
In October 2007 I was chatting with Andy Osier about my desire for folks in the social media community in Cincinnati, Dayton, and Northern Kentucky to meet up. Within a few hours, we had created the New Media Cincinnati group on Facebook and had a Twitter account promoting our first meetup.
We wanted to bring [...]
