Stuff I Did, Stuff Someone Else Did

I’ve got a ton of little things I’ve been meaning to blog for a while, so I’m throwing them all into one big post…

  • Waaaayyyy back in February, I got the chance to build a website for my mom’s store. The Vintage Quaker Books website uses WordPress and gives her the ability to keep her customers informed about new book finds and upcoming sales. It was fun for me, since it was the first WP template I’d built from scratch. Turns out it’s not as difficult as it looks. (And Mom, this is your push to write another blog post!)
  • This week, I received a request from a new friend for contributions to his fundraising for an MS Walk, a very worthy cause. He’s only got about a week to raise a ton of cash, so I’m hoping to help spread the word.
  • Although Passover has come and gone, I’m still working on cleaning out the spiritual chametz (in this case, organizing my digital life). I’ve just started using a great Mac donationware program called Journler to keep track of the PDFs, websites, notes, and clippings I accumulate each day. While I get adjusted to my new workflow, I’m wondering if anyone else out there is using the program (and how they’re doing it). Anyone?
  • And in other “late to the game” news, I’ve just joined LinkedIn, since it seems like everyone I know who’s NOT in the entertainment industry relies on it for networking. Since I’m trying to branch out into other career paths, it seems like a good resource. Thoughts?

Thanks SO much for “pimping” my MS Walk effort. I greatly appreciate it! :-)
