Some Random Notes Before Heading To Branson Mo For a Few Days

I will be away from the laptop quite a bit over the next couple days so blog posts may be a few and far between. The few days away will hopefully be a mix of both business and pleasure (although when you love what you do it sometimes you cannot tell the difference). Interesting enough one of the meetings comes from an offer I had on a domain name a couple months back. Sometimes face to face is what it takes to get a deal done.

Well here are a few random notes before I head out:

EzDevelop.com will be released to the beta testers today, we are working on one last bug that is minor before I release, last thing I wanted to do was release an alpha level tool and call it beta. It took us a couple days longer than expected but in the whole scheme of things it was good to delay for 48 hours. There is still work to be done to the public face to the site, but we hope to get everything up and moving on that side as well over the next week. Main goal was getting the actual tool itself where I wanted it. Phase 2 features are already defined and will really make this tool something that is special to those looking to save time on all aspects of starter site creation.

My Facebook posts have really surprised me at the level of interest they have gotten, it looks like we all have taken a keener interest in social media. It is something I spend quite a bit of time on but had held off doing many posts around it. Linkedin is really an untapped resource for many, and I think some focus there will be something you see in my posts moving forward as well.

On a side note I am finding more and more people starting to understand they need a proper web presence starting with the domain name but then see that they are not working to tie their presence online together. Even at the simplest level making sure you tie your Twitter, Facebook, and website together in some format is a must. This is something I see from both the experienced set as well as the people just getting moving online with their business or organization. They have all the pieces but have not put them together. I see a blog post coming on that.
