Goodbye Email – Week 2

Last week I was catching up from being gone for a week.  But still, I was doing more stratigic activities rather than tactical.  I thought I would have LESS emails sent out.  Nope.

Need… to… Focus…

On Friday I did a webinar for the eLearning Guild as part of their Online Forum conference.  Although it was also “Talk like a pirate day,” I refrained (but the urge was there!).  There is some polishing up I need to do on my webinar skills, but overall it went really well.  Great comments from the participants.  Thanks to everyone who chipped in – especially Bill and Karen who took care of the planning and administration.  They were great!

I spent a TON of time preparing for it.  Partly because I created it once, read Nancy Duarte’s slide:ology, and felt the need to redo it.  Even though it took a lot more time than I had anticipated, I am glad I did.  If you haven’t read the book – you must.  But because of that, I will break up the presentation and create a number of posts.

The 11 Verbs of Social Learning… coming soon.

Now that the webinar is done and my paper for school is done (was up at 2am this morning to finish it) I feel like a free man!  I can now focus on more fun stuff (you know, small things like being with my small family), and other things I have put off over the last few weeks.

If only I could wake up at 2am every day and still function!
