I got a surprise package in the mail yesterday. Opened it up to find the COOLEST thing for moms on the go. Card Cubby is the perfect size case to carry “on the go” for business cards, frequent shopper cards, coupons, and more! They sent me two – a sleek black one and a cute hot pink one. I tried and my Blackberry fits right in there too – awesome!! This is perfect for my “networking” kit to take to events. I can keep my phone and my business cards in one Card Cubby. In the other one I will put the business cards I GET from others that I need to follow up with. Neat! Finally I can be organized. Cause I network so much I always have a big pile of business cards on the kitchen counter. Now I can keep it in my Card Cubby and even use the neat tabs to keep them alphabetized. I LOVE them. The company was started by Wendy Krepak a Commercial Real Estate Professional, Wife and Mother. She got tired of all those coupons, credit cards, frequent shopper cards and receipts swimming around in her purse. I love Card Cubby it is the coolest thing ever. I think I just might have to get one more for my purse. I am DIGGING it. Check it out at http://www.CardCubby.com

I’m watching an old episode of the West Wing and the “President” – Martin Sheen – just said “one of the good things about having MS is that you learn to appreciate the good days”. I don’t have MS, but I do have a chronic condition with good days and bad days and how true this is. When I have a pain free day – like most of today – it’s a great feeling, almost “high”. Last summer I had a couple of months of good days, and felt so good that I almost made some very bad career choices, luckily a few of my trusted advisors took the time to take me aside and convince me there were better options, so I’m back in a trusted advisor – pretty low intensity and low stress – role and loving it.

Today is Doing Business in Your Bathrobe Day! – Celebrate and WIN!
This morning I was excited for our first radio interview to spread the word about Doing Business in Your Bathrobe Day (Feb 9). Turned out I was in for QUITE a surprize turn of events. Here’s how I made the most of my shock jock radio experience. I was interviewing on WKLS-FM in Atlanta after being contacted by the booker Joy Silva. When I called in this morning and heard heavy metal music I wondered what I was in for. Then the host came on and I was in for the usual line of questions. Then they had a caller come on the line – a man who I will call “Bruce”. He said that his wife was looking for jobs she could do from home on the internet and asked what jobs I recommended. So I told him some of the top work at home jobs. Then he started to tell me how his wife went online for a job and now is doing some porn job. “Bruce” goes on to say how he got herpes from his wife. Then he starts laying it in on me saying how I should be ashamed for recommending moms work from home and how it ruined his life

My trustworthy Blackberry 8800 was upgraded to a Bold last week and after much anticipation I can definitely say it’s been a very worthwhile upgrade. I’ve made these notes which might help anyone considering or receiving a bold in the near future. Background I’ve previously been an enthusiastic user of a Palm Treo 650, a not so enthusiastic user of various Windows Mobile Smartphones and a pretty happy user of a Blackberry 8800. I can safely say that the Bold has the best attributes of all of these devices with few if any of the downsides. My wife has an iPhone 3G and despite it winning over the bold in terms of sheer style and “conceptual integrity” the bold wins out for me in terms of good old fashioned performance and functionality. The hardware Overall the Bold seems slightly larger than the 8800, it fits fine in the 8800’s holster though and it feels great in the hand. It’s certainly not a small device, but any smaller would be too much of a compromise for me in terms of keyboard or screen
I’ve known for years that I will eventually switch to Firefox, the richness of the extensibility appeals too much to a tinkering power user like myself, but it’s taken me literally years to get comfortable enough with it to drop Maxthon as my day to day browser. To date Maxthon has been just too slick and efficient, especially when combined with Foxit for PDF files (and I have a lot of those!!) Anyway – last night by the pool I spent a good couple of hours learning FF3 and Acrobat and tweaking and extending it and I’m reasonably happy. These are the addons that got me there: http://www.roboform.com/ I have hundreds of passwords and form definitions in RoboForm and it works with IE, maxthon and FF and replicates between my different PCs very easily using SugarSync. It’s essential!! http://scholten.arno.googlepages.com/ Adds “bookmark this page” to the bookmark menu, this is a standard feature in Maxthon, browse to the folder you want to save the bookmark in and click
