Taste of Cincinnati 2010
Taste of Cincinnati is an annual tradition every Memorial Day weekend. The city of Cincinnati closes off several blocks downtown, and food vendors set up and offer a Taste of what they typically serve at their restaurants in the Greater Cincinnati area. It’s a chance for folks like me to “graze”. I remember the first [...]
A couple more public appearances
Last week I mentioned that I spoke to a group in Anderson Township about effective networking, or, as I preferred to call it, building better relationships. A couple of other public appearances I’d like to tell you about – one this past Saturday and one this evening.
Building better relationships for fun and profit
Tonight I had the wonderful privilege to speak at the Immaculate Heart of Mary (IHM) Job Search Ministry in Anderson Township, here in Cincinnati. They had approached me a few months ago and asked if I would come in and talk about effective networking.

The case for more local community networking groups Now, if you’re active in the social media community in [...]
The CinDaily Podcast Interview
Joe Wessels, the host of the CinDaily podcast, had me on his program yesterday to talk about New Media Cincinnati and specifically the recent “tempest in a teapot” situation that occurred over the past week. It was a great opportunity to tell the story of New Media Cincinnati and how this social media community has evolved [...]

snOMG in Cincinnati! – Tweets Narrated
Image by danieljohnsonjr via Flickr 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 [...]
Ze Frank builds community by creating moments
Image by wasabicube via Flickr 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 [...]
A Cincinnati Symposium on the Future of Local News
Image via Wikipedia Today I will be on a panel at the University of Cincinnati as part of the Broadcast Educators Association (BEA) conference, talking about The Future of Local News. Others on the panel with me are Brennan Donnellan, Hagit Limor, Elissa Sonnenberg. Here is an excerpt from the event description I received: Ten [...]
I have questions – do you have answers?
Last Saturday, as well as back in June, we did Questions from a Hat at New Media Cincinnati Second Saturday. I told the group to ask any questions they wanted, whether related to social media or technology or not. The questions were as varied as the group. You can find some answers the group came [...]
