I have been cracking up all day and having a wonderful time showing off your web pages, Life With Wee People, ActiveRain and holding attendees to my seminars hostage until they signed up for their free ActiveRain accounts (LMAO). They couldn't follow along with class without being a member because we clicked and visited quite a few of your blogs today.

We have new bay-bays to welcome to the Network. Here are a few photographs and a video excerpt from one of my classes. The first one was standing room only so they moved me to a larger conference room with comfy chairs. I had lots of give aways and we played the Wordy C version of Truth or Dare. Yes... there is film (LOL). ;-)

Club Chaos Is Going Live At REBarCamp RDU

Are you ready? Are you sure? We're Going Live in 5 at REBarCamp RDU (LOL). Elenor Throne, Heather O, Jeremy Blanton, Ann Allen, Suzie Blackmon, SarahGray Lam, Carol Smith and a host of other bay-bays are on location enjoying the social media revolution.

Wordy C will be making an appearance as a thought leader. How to monetize your blog and writing transparently are the topics. Will be highlighting the dynamics of socialization when we jack a blog. ;-)

Margaret Rome was kind enough to donate autographed copies of her book and we will be playing truth or dare to give them away during the writing transparency class.

Stay tune for more eye candy later... The bay-bays will be tag teaming with me to update you guys later. If you have anything you'd like to say to the NC attendees feel free to comment here. I will be showcasing your blogs to 300+ people. We are streaming live on-line so this may get very interesting. :-)

Wordy C is going on another Active Rain Road Trip

Thursday night is our Beer 4 Bloggers social media get together which will be held at the RallyPoint Sports Bar. There will be a national contest going on over there with the potential of winning $5000 so show up bay-bays! I expect to see lots of video cameras. You guys know how much I like eye candy and video sweets is a must. ;-)

Friday, November 6th is camp day! Be there at 8:30. Can you say all day event with 25 sessions? I'm high-jacking two of 'em and will be teaching (1) How to Write Transparently and (2) How to Monetize Your Blog. I may even be doing Confessions of a Google Whore during the interim while chatting about the Outside Blog Minion Report, Life With Wee People, Club Chaos, ActiveRain, Localism and our Jango Music project. Can't get any more or less transparent than that, eh? (LMAO)

Yup. Next page of Diary of a Google Whore will be live from North Carolina (LOL). ;-)

I'm getting ready to roll down I-95 to make some music, give Margaret Rome her Garmin back (after we have dinner - LOL) and do two classes in REBarCamp in NC.

Before I go, I have some business I need done. I don't want to waste time and do not believe my client should be waiting for me to return to get this done so if you are down to do a survey in Brooklyn, Kings County NY shoot me an e-mail. Gotta get back to the underwriter ASAP.

I will be making the call by lunch time. If you guys know someone you think is good, please feel free to endorse them so I can add them to my database. Spread the word, people. Wordy C needs a professional right now. :-)

Our iTunes project is doing well. So is our MP3 launch at Amazon.com which happens to have the wee people tickled pink because they love shopping on-line for movies there (LOL). We're getting some Internet Radio play and will eventually migrate to the college stations. I think the shorties wont know what to do with themselves when it eventually hits regular radio.

DJ Minions, eh? Gotta love kids... I wonder what we will cook up next... Working on a full album with a bit of help from some very talented friends (when my kids are not making off with the equipment - LMAO). So far it's been mad fun. Will try to return to my podcasting now that Noah and Stephen are both sleeping soundly (LOL). Hubby is playing World of Warcraft and I am answering what appears to be our first bit of fan mail. 

Nice... ;-)

 Life With Wee People: Minioncast? Where's My Podcast Files? Seriously...

One minute I'm setting up for a skype par-tay so I can spoof with Karen and Candice and give them a sneak preview of some music spam. The next minute my pending date with my gal pals is kicked to the curb because the wee people decide it's time to record silly songs in coded gibberish (LOL). I opened protective baggies and untied wiring for this? A short people broadcast in wee people foreign language?

I was originally thinking: (1) I cracked open the water proof case (which has really tight latches and is tough to open) so (2) I can record more digital tracks and (3) catch up on my blog posts by talking instead of typing. I then modified my thinking: Awwww... Aren't they cute? Let them have a couple of minutes and I'll erase what they are doing and get back to work after I go get my snack-age so I can settle in for some fun. Hmm... Being enterprising little men they erased my dumb a$$ first (LOL).

Psssst... Can you say stupid, stupid mommy? Wassup with the moron pills you been popping lately? Yo! You know they earned their term of endearment so what the heck were you thinking? Little minions should never be left alone with electronics. Especially if you have a three year old addicted to their ritual sacrifice(LMAO).

I bet they were thinking we should erase this to make room for our stuff, after all: (1) It's Noah's turn, (2) It's Stephen's turn, (3) It's Noah's turn, (4) It's Noah's turn, (5) It's Noah's turn, (6) It's Stephen and Noah's turn, (7) What the... hey, lady, get back... Go to bed Mommy, (8) Don't touch it... shhhhhh... (9) Noooooo Mommy... (10) NOOOoooOOOOoooOOOoo! (11) It's Noah's turn, (12) It's Stephen's turn...

See where this is going? Can't podcast. Can't blog. Can't check the e-mail... Having all sorts of withdrawal thoughts and wondering why one hour of their time feels like three of mine (LOL).  

Will Wordy C ever get her podcast done with Candice? Who knows... Right now I'm wiping the scribble off the wall to the right compliments of Stephen the Blur Minion and watching my miniature technogeeks get freaky with the mics (LMAO). I bet Karen and Bloggy-Anna would love them if they got up close and personal with 'em. We are all such a bunch of Curious Georges in my house. Watching them create and manipulate wave files is fun.

Why are they still wake? Hmm... Why are kids ever still wake? (LOL) No school tomorrow. We're voting. Oh well... Mr Autistic and Mr PDD-NOS are having mad fun so I guess their easily amused mother will let 'em keep the mixer dancing with audio output lights... Never know... Their giggles may make for stellar ringtones down the road (LOL). :-)

Will I ever post a Minioncast? Hmm... Wouldn't that be interesting? Maybe... Maybe not. Depends upon the conversation and how shrill Stephen decides to voice his Daffy Duck syndrome of screaming MINE!!! (LOL)

Am I teasing and keeping you guessing?

Abso-freaking-lutely (LOL). ;-)  

Life With Wee People: From Pre-School to Kindergarten... Or Is It A to Z ? (LOL)

Stephen the Blur Minion is having a very big day. It's Halloween and shorty has tasted every type of candy Big Daddy Minion brought into the house. The birthday party starts at four but I kinda don't want to interrupt his nap on the table. Seems he fell out after wrecking the bedroom while watching "Open Season." They play that movie at least three times a day. Noah has it scripted (LOL).

Normal mothers would never let their three year olds sleep on the table... but I'm not normal. I only pick him up if he falls asleep on the floor or laundry bag (LOL). "The Table" happens to be one of his fave spots. Ain't messing with him when he's in his happy place. Ever deal with a cranky PDD-NOS kid? You wouldn't mess with him either if you knew what I knew about Baby Taz (LMAO). ;-)

Nap time is sacred... :-) Will wake the little minion up to dress him as a ninja later. Mikey wants Ninja Eye Candy (LOL). This should get very interesting. Will be blogging live from a Halloween Birthday Party later. Never saw that one coming (LOL). Sad thing is I really wanna stay on my keyboards (LMAO). Oh well... kids gotta socialize, eh?

Update: Pulling out the Jap uniform (LOL). Less than four hundred people around the entire world own one of these. ;-)

Diary Of A Google Whore... 10-31-2009

The cool thing about running in the rain to clear your head is that once it is clear you have plenty of room to fill it with sensations and impressions. Sometimes it is the Etymology of the word "Whore" or "Prostitute" that catches your attention while you jog by the bus stop and notice shenanigans going on in a parked car (ROTFL). According to Wikipedia: ‘To prostitute is derived from a composition of two Latin words: (preposition) pro and (verb) statuere. A literal translation therefore would be: ‘to expose’, ‘to place up front’. Hmm... when you take the sex slant out of it, being a very narrow and specific type of innocuous whore may actually be quite useful (LOL). 

We all know what Google is so I shall not waste time defining it. But what is a "Google Whore?" Hmm... Some might say a Google Whore is a person (like me) hell bent on Google Domination that advocates using Google to get what you want (LMAO). Think about it: (1) We are writers. (2) We all want exposure. (3) We market ourselves and companies, soliciting strangers who are seeking something we may be able to give them when they search for professional products and services...

Question: Don't we all want our websites to show up on page one of stellar search engines? I know I do. My search engine of choice happens to be Google (LOL).

With all things in life the virtual road you choose will determine your final page rank destination. Being addicted to Google Juice, I blog in the Rain and happily advocate pimping Outside Blogs because my three outside blogs feed my insatiable Google Domination cravings. I like being one of the three Queens of Chaos and love the fact that if you were to Google "Club Chaos" my bay-bays in ClubChaosAgents.com and the ActiveRain Group: Club Chaos are rocking cyberspace with their link love. You will discover both sites are happily entrenched on page one of Google within the top 15 slots. How cool is that? Very. Bet you wish you were a Google Whore (LOL).

Of course, the connotation suggests there is a dark side to Google Whoredom. Why don't we go to the Urban Dictionary to find out more information about the digital divide's "oldest profession" and sometimes biggest competitive complaint (LOL). In the meantime, I'm going to go back to making more music spam and creating original content so I can solicit the public for intellectual and nonsensical discourse while I pimp my blogs (LMAO). I might even sell some real estate while I am at it... :-)

If you need help setting up your outside blogs, shoot me an e-mail. With a quirky mentor like me you will never write the same again. Not if you join the Google Domination agenda at Club Chaos (LMAO). Wanna have some fun? Stop sitting on the fence and go get an Outside Blog. You can't be discovered if you are not being indexed by the search engines. Seriously...  ;-)

Which has me completely distracted (LOL). Being a smart Rainer, I asked two smarter Rainers to rep the hubby. :-)

I believe in hiring professionals and getting the hell out of their way once I retain 'em and ask for help. When we are done it is going to be a mad fun blog post. The whole team is from Club Chaos, so, need I say more? (LOL)

Our mortgage broker is a Rainer too, but he barely blogs so I'm mentoring him. He's already working on multiple AR referrals from me and I can't imagine using someone else for my family's project because Dude can close in less than two weeks if you give him what the underwriter needs. I have a need for speed 'cause I wanna impress the hubby. I'm trying to get him to get his license so the RE bet is on (LMAO).

Will Wordy C win it? How can I not with Rainers like you guys at my disposal (ROTFL). :-)

Wanna see what happens if you put a bunch of fun Rainers on a project from multiple states? Hmm... I bet you do. Stay tuned... I will be invading a couple of states to collect some interesting closing escrow eye candy (LOL). Mikey's first social media closing is going to be a real hoot.

I wonder what mine will be like when I get around to it... Yup. Investing the Donald Trump way (LOL). Hope my offer doesn't get the shotgun treatment (LMAO).

In the meantime I have to finish Karen's music spam before my e-mail blows up. Yeah, I know, it's been a couple of days. How dare I work and interfere with my blogging schedule (LOL). Promises, promises... gotta keep the promises. Especially when the projects are mad fun and silly (LOL).

Time to go to work. Will be lurking... ;-)

You can stop the text assault now and don't even think of touching my e-mail (LOL). Will write a serious post. Promise. I have too much nice eye candy not to. Working on the photo montage and will share some serious information about the committees I found interesting. Did I mention I brought a lot of material back with me? Hmm... oversight on my part if I didn't because I did. Seriously...  I did. Got the skinny on a lot of interesting stuff and I will do a series of  Localism posts in a few... Gotta deliver a fax to Queens Village  before I settle in to serial blogging. I need a brick and mortar signature. Running out the door into the rain again (LOL). ;-)
