To answer your other question, yes, I am working a lot on school stuff right now. I just passed my General Exam (with flying colors). I'm going to resume writing at least two articles per week for ToT.
Well, it's a combination of things. 1. Recently graduated college student with no real job. 2. AT&T is worthless in my part of NY. 3. I got a chocolate touch instead. As for helping the site, I'm trying to do my part. I talk about the site to all my friends and promote it when the opportunity arises, but don't worry about the doughnuts, I'll buy my own to cut down on the expenses. ;)
You want a doughnut too? Help get the site from taking money to making money and I'll buy you a baker's dozen. And how can you not have an iPhone? It autofills "it's" even though we know sometimes it should be its and won't accept s- apostrophe, only apostrophe- s.
Those are some great ideas. I'm really enjoying being a part of what's going on with ToT. I'll definitely be on the look out for more great ideas to share and ways to share the site.
Thanks, I've been looking for fun topics that I can put an interesting spin on. I've also been thinking about how to get more people to check it out. I've been sharing my posts with my FB friends and on my Tumblr. I think we need a shameless-self-promotion lesson from Brash. (He seems to get a lot of engagement.) Oh and congratulations on the 'promotion.'
When we started the co I was CEO, then hostile takeover, then back to work. I want to implement an ideas section that writers can browse for inspiration. We have a few ideas in the hopper for traffic. I'm not sure anyone else can be as brash as Brash! Also there is a reply button coming soon to encourage dialogue.
Great! Building a fun website. Looks like I'm taking over soon as editor in chief (comprised and myriad, people?!?). Kids are ski racers so busy time of year. How are you? Fun posts lately. We need to figure how to up engagement!
Oh sorry about the answer to your question about the 87, I made it on a website called runescape when I was 8 because my username couldn't be Riley and the 87's were in the suggestions and I guess it just stuck to me for 4 years.
hey karla - it's kerry j. - i'm testing out this new functionality they added. great pic of you guys - had to comment! hope you had a fun bday the other day...
Do you check in with your sweetie during the day?
My girlfriends and I have been debating whether our significant others should check in with us during the work day. Face it, if you are trying to get some you would be, but if it's a "sure thing" all communicaiton can wait until the whistle blows. So what about you, do you check in to see how her (feel free to change gender as suits you) day is going?
hey so Its been almost a week since I sent in my w9 and all that is that normal? how do i get approved? Do I just wait for rebecca to respond and the admin tools link to pop up? Lastly, when they say I have to have my topics approved first do they mean I'm supposed to send rebecca an e-mail with several titles like for instance I'm a tech category writer So do I send her something ike " IBM Watson to compete on Jeopardy!" or does that happen after I see the admin tool link in the blog draft submission process. Sorry I'm just confused lol P.S is there a way to set up direct deposit with them
Who makes the more interesting ToT's?
While I enjoy interpreting the teenaged spelling and abbreviations, and let's face it, we need a lot of comparisons to ensure Justin Beiber is THE BEST EVRR!, I do find the more mature users' views more interesting. Am I over 30 and therefore near death, or do our interests and views get more interesting to others as we age? So which is it (or wich, if you're under 18)?
I did the best I could with the time I had left but my connection isn't being kind to me at the moment. Lost my ToT on Black Plague vs AIDS for some reason. Don't worry, I'll be climbing the board soon. Besides, it's good to let them get a false sense of security.
Should kids get a day off because it's cold?
The high today in Denver is supposed to only reach -3* with some wicked wind chill. They have called off school, which means all those kids will be out in the cold making snowmen and sledding instead of being nice and warm in the classroom. Should school be closed due to cold?
I will be soon. I haven't been able to write due to a class I'm taking, trying to get ready for Korea, and dealing with this Japan situation (I have a lot of friends who live there)
I have some articles coming out: (1) just accepted, an article in which I describe the horrific things that would happen if there were an earthquake in the Pacific Northwest of the magnitude experienced in Japan; (2) an article in which I provide three lessons on how to avoid the impending robot apocalypse, with reference to how I tied against the New York Times Rock, Paper, Scissors robot (an unlikely outcome); (3) an article I submitted a while ago, not yet accepted, comparing the free web conferencing apps Yugma and Vyew; (4) an article I've yet to finish in which I lambaste Facebook naysayers and other annoying Luddites.
