Even with millions of users and many “legit” organizations beginning to see the use of it, people say they don’t get twitter, that they don’t see the point of hearing what someone had for breakfast. That’s always the deal- they don’t want to hear someone else’s “what are you doing right now?”

Today Princess Scientist talks with her dad about The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman (and other Gaiman books). They touch on The Hobbit as well, discussing its flaws.

It was 25 degrees [...]
Our daughter has decided she wanted her own podcast to talk about books and science, her two favorite things (that aren’t pokemon). So we decided to start one with her. We started last fall, but decided not to announce till we had a couple in the can. I’ll be posting them here in the next [...]
I restarted kung fu this January. I’d quit when I got pregnant in 2002, and tried to return after, but lacked a definite edge. And I mean a mental/emotional edge, not just pregnancy weight, etc. So I took some time off. Suddenly I blinked and my baby was seven, ready to start kung fu herself, [...]
I joined a group of other social media professionals in order to offer a full workshop to a North Carolina (RTP area) company. I’ll be offering podcasting advice, obviously, and there are some very smart people offering other services:
Wayne Sutton, nationally known blogger at http://socialwayne.com and social media/community strategist for Twine Interactive,
