Mike ツ says Jul 01, 2008 10:44PM before I read it, I'll say a person needs balance. It's not an either or issue. We need both. Now, I'll read it.
marjorie says Jul 01, 2008 10:50PM Loved reading it. I agree with Farho re: balance, w/c I think is Darren's point in article. I probably spend more on my own than others'.
SoccerDad thinks Jul 01, 2008 10:55PM ProBlogger is right on - use both. I love having my own domain for my blog, but using social media services to build the community is great.
Mike ツ says Jul 01, 2008 10:55PM Thanks Darren for the encouragement to have goals and focus in whatever we do, wherever we do it.
oro says Jul 01, 2008 11:50PM To answer the question without first reading it... I would say 'yes'. lol, err use it and focus on your properties
oro says Jul 01, 2008 11:51PM but then again like one of your earlier guest posts says. You should be focusing on building your social media profiles before you need it
oro says Jul 01, 2008 11:51PM that way you can use it easily once you need to and you have to opportunity to focus as much as you need to on your own property right?
imnj says Jul 02, 2008 01:05AM [b4 reading] it depends what your goals are. Small biz I say focus on the activities that pay you first.
acnatta says Jul 02, 2008 01:17AM having just finished reading it I'll repeat my comment from yesterday - it needs to be balanced. Great post!
denise205 says Jul 02, 2008 01:18AM I just read the post and like the final idea about renting as a stepping stone. Good things to think about here.
evemosher says Jul 02, 2008 12:28PM i agree with the need for balance- but finding the right balance (esp. when the actual business-offline-requires time) is hard to acheive
evemosher says Jul 02, 2008 12:29PM any tips on finding the sweet spot on balance? btw good post will be using the theory in my teaching
LindaZ says Jul 02, 2008 12:57PM been creating community here on FB and Twitter - watching all the bloggers talk about/promote their blog, I see that I can do the same...
LindaZ says Jul 02, 2008 01:00PM social media is where we share bout ourselves, our businesses, connect with like pple interested in what we are up to, blogging fits in well
