Podcasts by First Blog Media
You might have noticed the Podcast section in the sidebar on the right. The podcasts are done by First Blog Media, free of charge, because of my participation in a contest over at Darren Rowse’s ProBlogger.
So far they have produced two quality Podcasts for me, and there should be about 22 more in this 2 a month yearly contract.
With the help of Photoshop, Macbook Pro, and my friend Mark, I came up with the following Podcast Icon. Let me know if you like one of my first attempts at Graphic Design.
Twitter is Functional
The moral of the story is that I’ll be using Twitter more often. It’s a great way to keep in contact, get feedback, and grow a community that does a great job complementing a blog.
For this reason, I recommend logging into www.twitter.com and adding me as a friend on www.twitter.com/alexshalman.
I use Twitter to instantly send updates out to my friends as soon as a new article is posted on this site. I’ve rigged it up to happen automatically. This was really convenient while I was away in Israel because I had all the articles post-dated and then Twitter got the word out.
In the future I plan to have special events, contests and polls surrounding my Twitter account. If you haven’t done so, sign up and add me.

Great post on Tiger Woods- one of the greatest competitors ever!
Thanks for the posts, I really enjoyed reading “How to really become the boss of your life” I completely agree with all seven ways to free myself and I am especially glad for the short and simple solutions provided. I especially appreciated “Freedom from Oxygen” more when I read the solution.
Cheers,
Hi Alex,
Congrats on wining the contest. I am looking forward to the podcasts.
Podcast Icon looks very professional!

Shamelle
Hi Alex, thank you for including me in your Twitter roundup!
I recently found you on Twitter and I remember you from when you used to guest post on Wendy Piersall’s blog. I’m glad you’re getting into the Twitter groove, it’s not only fun but it’s an awesome way to connect with some great people. As long as you don’t let it consume your life (LOL - you could be on Twitter 24/7 but you probably wouldn’t get much else done) it’s a great networking tool.
Thanks again for the include and I look forward to seeing you more often in the tweetosphere. Make it a great day for yourself!
Hey Alex, Thanks for the link to my post. I am enjoying your Dumb Little Man posts. Congratulations on winning the podcast contest– awesome! Hope to catch up soon. Jenny
Thanks for replying to the twitter request. I really did enjoy reading your article, so it fits well with the other great ones.
