Interesting reading for the day:

Doc Searls explains why Yahoo and it’s advertisers have it all wrong.

Steven found his answer on using Trillian both with a proxy and without at the same time.

David Weinberger on The Generosity of Blogs, in response to Mike Sanders’ ramblings about ego and blogging. You should follow the links in those articles as well, there’s some interesting discussion going on back and forth about “Why people blog”.

For my own perspective, I blog because I have something to say. It doesn’t especially matter if it’s read by thousands of people a day, or just a handful. The goal is to find people who are interested in technology and make it a little less scary, or find those who work with technology and share ideas, opinions, “what works, or doesn’t work”, etc. If someone can learn from reading about my dealings with workplace, or home, technology, then I’ve accomplished what I set out to do.

    My New Home Office

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

    This is where I work almost 40% of my work hours, in my new home office. I don’t believe I’ve mentioned anywhere on the blog that particular change in my position. Basically, I spend about 5 hours at the office each day, drive home on my “lunch” hour and spend the evening hours (the hours…

    Would you pay $500 to spend the day listening to people talk about blogging? Not that I was one of the “invited”, (I probably don’t live close enough to Boston) but please! I’m already sick of reading all the BS hype about blogging as it is! In fact, one day last week I was so…

    Linked: How to Be a Mental Health Ally

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

    It’s that first line that should grab your attention because so many people do not see mental health struggles as something that impacts them, or will impact them. But the numbers don’t lie. Someone you know, probably even someone very close to you, is dealing with mental health struggles as you read this. Someone you work with is doing the same themselves or supporting someone else who is.

    How great would it be if we all recognized that and provided a safe place for them to talk about those struggles instead of not welcoming their voices and causing more harm?

    I don’t think we can even imagine how helpful that would be because we see it so infrequently. It’s time for that to change.
