I gave Jason Alba a hard time about how he hates to brag. I told him it’s telling people what you’ve been up to and if they like you, they like knowing that. (I do think Jason needs to SEO his post URLs though).

Writing for Marketing Pilgrim has been rewarding, I’ve had stories on Techmeme, and Mashable (today). There is a great community on the site and Andy is such a class act. Today was especially rewarding in that my story was mentioned in the New York Times.

I chose the name newspapergrl because I have a particular fondness for newspapers. One of my favorite writers writes for them. I planned to be an environmental journalist. I love the intensity of a newsroom and I still have great respect for the industry.
If there are any New York Times reporters coming through Utah and you’d let me interview you, consider this an open invitation.

    With all due respect…How can an on-line marketing specialist only have 103 friends on facebook. That’s counter-intuitive to me.
