Today, Colleen Kulikowski sent me a message about my feelings and thoughts now that Project Blogger was wrapping up. I started to write her a response and after I wrote it, I figured it would be an appropriate post. Here it is:
Colleen
So nice to hear from you. Let's see how do I feel...all BS aside?
I'm glad it's over. I'm glad I was in it. Blogging was on my to-do list for 6 mos. I was lucky because I was fast-tracked through the learning curve. I'm still amazed that this 'whole world' was out there that I didn't know existed.
It really was a lot of work and a huge undertaking. As of 3/5/07, I had never blogged or read a blog or even heard of ActiveRain for that matter.
Though I wasn't given all the answers, I was pointed in the right direction to get the answers. I was clued in on the blogosphere and how to become a part of it.
I'm sure I won't be an ARDELL, but I'm not supposed to be--nor did she want me to be. I know a lot of people have 'issues' with her but I do have to say, she treated me really, really well. I always accept people for who they are and not try to change them or try to make them think or be what I think they should think or be.
I'd like to thank everyone on AR for doing what they do, including you. I'd like to give Caleb a huge shout out. Caleb you're a trooper!
Caleb: I'm sorry I was so annoying throughout---but please embrace me for me---I promise you there is more in me than 'piss and vinegar'.
I'm pretty sappy right now because it was such a great learning experience that constantly challenged me (almost to the point of being overwhelmed) to learn more, and for me, personally, Project Blogger was an incredible opportunity.
I'm not sure what the reason for Project Blogger was, but I do have to say that it spread the word on real estate blogging and social networking like wildfire (especially here in the Miami area); if that was an objective for the competition, it was a huge success!
To success!
