In anticipation of announcing the ability for NetworkInAustin.com members to have their own blogs on this site I thought I should probably start my own.

I'm actually really excited about the possibilities. I think a blog is potentially a very powerful business tool, especially in the context of networking. Let me explain. From what I've seen blogs tend to be a little bit more informal. This one sure will be, so you can ignore all of the typos and my stream of consciousness style of writing that you'll find here. This is probably a good thing. Since networking is really all about building relationships regularly contributing to a blog can only help others learn more about your thoughts and feelings on a variety of subjects that are important to you. What better way to begin building a relationships than by sharing your thoughts and feelings?

I've asked Thom Singer who's been working on his own blog since March to contribute 2 articles to help folks understand: What blogging is and Why you should consider blogging.

Thanks for reading. This should be quite an adventure.
