1) Laurie Manny - I am so crazy about Laurie Manny that I can do an impersonation of her. Not blog like her, but talk like her. Now don't everyone call her or she won't get any work done! But I LOVE her voice!!! She definitely be IQueenie!!! I was blown away by this post of Laurie's when I first came to Active Rain in the middle of March, and she become my Idol at first read!
2) Teresa Boardman - After I was here in Active Rain for about a month, Teresa Boardman's photo of her "ad on a bench" had me saying "She's a HOOT!" As much as I love her style and humor, I also like her informative posts.
3) Maureen Francis - I first noticed Maureen Francis when she wrote this Blog Tour post after I had been in Active Rain for about a month. I didn't understand anything about this whole world of blogging then, but writing this post reminds me to go back and see more of Active Rain through Maureen's excellent eyes! She gives so much! I wonder why we don't hear about her more, as with over 150,000 points, you would think I would run across her more. I plan to make time to find her more often.
4) Maggie Dokic - I first noticed Maggie Dokic when she wrote this Article about my friend and colleague, Beth Butler I was amazed that someone as busy as Maggie would make time to welcome a new member in a blog post. Looking back I realize that I should have learned from that. I'm not sure what I should have learned, but I'm sure I missed the point of Active Rain that day.
5) Marlene Bridges - Marlene first caught my attention with this article on Real Estate Professionals that got 56 comments. I realized then that you didn't have to be one of the people with over 100,000 points to write a great blog post.
6) Melody Young - I know everyone likes that Hard Money Guy, but this post written by Melody Young, "The Hard Money Gal" actually caught my attention back in mid April. Her most recent post is a good message to ARDELL that we Apprentices are not the only whiners in Acitve Rain. According to Melody, we as whiners are not even worth mentioning, since there are so many higher placed whiners here in Active Rain.
7) Colleen Kulikowski - is like the grand hostess of Active Rain, but she's real quiet. She talks a lot, but real quiet. I can't point to any of her posts because her style is so not me. But I'm sure there's something I should be learning from her but haven't. So she's in my blog subscriptios.
Well now I'm gonna have to be honest here and tell you I get why my Coach, ARDELL, gave me this "homework" to do.
Since the middle of April I have just been all about Project Blogger. The first month I was learning about Active Rain, and actually very excited about Active Rain. But since I got involved in my own blog for the competition (see ARDELL, I didn't put a link to my blog because you told me this homework is not all about ME or anyone involved in Project Blogger) I've been missing out on what I can learn from Active Rain.
That is going to change TODAY as I pledge to at least try to figure out what Active Rain is really all about. Thanks for the Homework ARDELL! I learned something already.
