Getting to Know You…

I’m having a lot of fun with this blog, and I hope it’s giving you lots of great ideas for your organizing business. One of the cool things about a blog is that it’s not just information on a web page; it provides an opportunity for us to interact and get to know more about one another. With that in mind, I’m made a few enhancements to the site, and you are warmly invited to get involved.

Making new friends

Stay Connected

There are now five ways you can stay connected to me and to this blog:

  • Add it to your RSS reader
  • Follow me on Twitter
  • Connect with me on LinkedIn
  • Become a fan on Facebook

Simply click on the appropriate graphic in the sidebar on your right.

Leave a Comment

When you read one of my blog posts, if you disagree with what I’ve said, or have some additional information that might benefit your organizing colleagues, please don’t hesitate to leave a comment! I’ve just added a new feature called “Comment Luv” which will automatically add the title of your latest blog post, which may encourage others to click on your link. Of course, I can’t promise you tons of traffic, but I am personally committed to visiting and commenting on the blog of each and every organizer who leaves a comment here, so we can get to know one another better.

We’d also love to see who you are! Here’s how to make your picture show up next to your comments:

  1. Sign up for a free account at www.gravatar.com (Gravatar is short for Globally Recognized Avatar).
  2. Add any email addresses that you use when commenting on blogs. A confirmation email will be sent to each account, with a link to activate it on your Gravatar account.
  3. Upload images from your hard drive, or enter the image URLs if they already appear on a website.
  4. Choose a rating for your image (G, PG, R or X). Hopefully any photo you’re using professionally will be G-rated, but if for any reason it is not, this will prevent your naughty picture from showing up on a family-friendly blog.
  5. Assign an image to each email address. Whenever you post to a gravatar-enabled blog using that email address, your picture will magically appear next to your comment.

Please note that you only have to do it once, and your picture will show up not only on this blog, but on any site that is gravatar-enabled.

Professional Organizers Blog Carnival

The first edition of the Blog Carnival was a big hit and I plan to run it on a monthly basis. If you have a blog, and one of your posts includes a product review, an organizing tip, or a business strategy that would benefit your organizing colleagues in some way, please share your expertise by submitting it to the next Professional Organizer Blog Carnival. You can enter whenever you like, even every month if you’re so inclined!
