Community has been on my mind a lot lately, partly because as I mentioned before, I went to BlogWorld with ideablob.com. They’re an online community where people discover, discuss and share ideas (and they have a $10,000 seed money winner every month).
I spent my weekend talking about ideablob to the BlogWorld community because they recognized that in order to be a community, you have to be a part of other communities – not just your own.

Back when my people started talking about going to BlogWorldExpo, I knew I had to find a way to get there. So, I started thinking about ways to do that. I was talking to Lucretia one night and she suggested that ideablob might be interested in some content creation and visibility at the event.
So, I put together a little profile, a little presentation and a little bit of a suggestion and sent it off to darling Annie.
A few days later, I had an agreement, I had a plan an Annie and I were going over talking points.
So, next Thursday, …read more
