Secret Purchase In The Middle Of a Typhoon

One of my first clients was the New York Times Company owned Norfolk, Virginia TV station WTKR. The then general manager knew I was in the Internet business and confided that during a recent hurricane the TV station’s web site was overwhelmed with viewers looking for the latest weather – at the time they only carried the national content from CBS. (Called “CBS Now”). The point was clear – whether you are ready or not – if it’s on the internet people will find you.
That is sort of the case with this Google owned platform, Blogger. On March 31st, 2008 I launched my “new blog” at http://blog.tomanthony.com and just put a forward link on my Blogger profile http://tomanthonydotcom.blogspot.com. Now every time I log into my Google account it lies there waiting for me to do something.
I did not want to have to keep up with two blogs, but I believe it is in my company’s best interest – if nothing else as a link back to the corporate site at http://www.strategicimsweb.com. But I don’t want to waste anyone’s time either, so I have decided to post unique information on my Blogger page. The next thing there will be about a secret purchase I made in the middle of a typhoon. Dang – what a great teaser line!
