Good morning from rainy Maine. I’m not complaining too much about the rain today because I’m inside spending today working on developing and editing materials for the workshops and webinars that I’m leading this summer. One of those webinars, From Blog to Job, is starting tomorrow night at 7pm EDT.

In my typical pattern of booking travel a little later than I should, this week I finally made my flight and hotel reservations for the ISTE conference. This year, I’m once again attending as a media member. I’ll be using YouTube to live stream some interviews with a variety of speakers and vendors in attendance. Of course, I’m also looking forward to connecting with many of you who will be in attendance. If you see me, let’s grab a selfie!


Here are this week’s most popular posts:
