]]> Comment on Will Hillary divorce Bill soon? by AntonioFWW http://itindustryoutsider.wordpress.com/2008/03/04/will-hillary-divorce-bill-soon/#comment-25 AntonioFWW Wed, 05 Mar 2008 15:30:16 +0000 http://itindustryoutsider.wordpress.com/2008/03/04/will-hillary-divorce-bill-soon/#comment-25 LOL, well if she does, then I would ask her to be a spokes person for our site! I work for http://www.firstwivesworld.com and I would be the first to try and speak with Hillary if she were to divorce Bill. I'm not speaking for my site I'm just speaking as an individual but if Hillary were to divorce Bill I don't think anyone would blame her. She has been through so much with him and to be honest I think he is more of a liability that support right now. Just my two cents, Antonio LOL, well if she does, then I would ask her to be a spokes person for our site!

But with a purpose - to indicate that not all blog posts have to be major undertakings. Blogging is as much about discovering what works for the blogger - and I understand it can be very daunting indeed. Indeed, and I was of course being flippant.

With so many AR teams completely overloaded doing traditional work, it's hard for them to imagine how to carve out to set up a blog and write posts. For us, it's quick and easy. For the average Jo or Joe, it looks daunting. Obviously I personally have plenty of time to blog and tweet. ;->

Actually, I'm lying, I have a couple of cracking URLs and I've been thinking of doing the same thing. What bothers me is that someone will join the dots and look at both my Jekyll and my Hyde. But then, perhaps, my private thoughts are more sinister than yours. (If you could read my mind now, I am fuming at a certain large organisation - and it's not Microsoft (for a change)) Moving along, as requested…
