They’re Not Internet Friends, They’re Just Friends

with one comment

So, I’ve threatened to restart my blogging several times in the last couple of years. My wonderful mother-in-law Mary keeps sending messages through my wife Sheila to blog more. The muse-thief responds by stalking me with work and other joy-shitting techniques over which we all have power but too-often shelf.

Anissa Mahew is the most recent example of someone over whom the muse-thief has zero power. He doesn’t even spend a lot of time chasing her because she’s proves so much stronger. So I’d like to share her with you.

It was my honor to attend an event put on by Jeff Pulver with the help of many wonderful people spreading the “now” of the real-time internet composed of tools like the internet, Twitter, Facebook and many others. It what we do with them that count or as someone there said,  “Twitter isn’t cool. Doing interesting things using Twitter is.”

Check out her blog at:  http://www.freeanissa.com

and on Twitter @anissamahew
