Happy Holidays

Posted by: Aaron Brazell

I didn’t bother writing a holiday post yesterday. I was too busy trying to get to New Jersey to spend the day with my parents. It was a good day filled with normal Thanksgiving Day stuff - lots of food, football, etc.

I made the mistake of stopping at CompUSA on the way home though. Every year, stores are beginning to one-up the previous precedents and this was no different. Getting buyers to the stores at 5am makes no sense when you can get them into stores Thanksgiving night. And I was a sucker.

I did walk out with a brand new Viewsonic VG1930wm DVI-enabled widescreen flat panel monitor though.

Happy Thanksgiving, folks. And Merry Christmas.

      Hey Jas--

      Yep was in Toronto. Never been to Vancouver, though it's on my list of places to visit. Maybe next year sometime.

      I deleted the dupe for you. The first didn't show up because first time commenters have to be moderated first.

      Thanks for deleting the dup. Humm...I do have a question for you. I read your post How to: Placing Adsense Strategically Between Posts on problogger. That's an awsome solution for wordpress, but do you have a solution for blogger platform? Blogger allows users to place ad at the end of post, but that repeats for every post for 3 times (google policy). So i'm wondering if there's a solution so that I could place ad unit anywhere within the post. I've googled it quite a bit, haven't found any ideal solutions. Thanks.

        Twitter Pitch!

        <p>Twitter pitching is a form of pitch that requires succint "what does this mean for me" kind of pitching. It is the ultimate efficiency of words. You have 140 characters or less to tell me why your pitch matters to me or my readers. Please include a means of contacting you. This is included in your 140 characters. If you send successive pitches, you will likely be ignored, unless it's obvious that the first pitch was a case of "accidental send", etc.</p> <p>This form of pitching does not mean I'm being a diva. It means that my time is valuable, and you want a piece of it. It's good practice for you, and delivers your pitch in a format I want. Win-win.</p>
