BlogWorld Expo: Des Walsh

Des Walsh is a cool guy. His business card says business coach and blogging evangelist. But really, he's a small town guy.

He and I bonded over our shared view that technology allows you to live where you like. He told me his post office sotry. A friend of Des, who is a business coach, was talking with her client, who had moved from the city to set up her business in the small town. She was in a hurry one morning, and frustrated that the post office clerk insisted on chatting with each customer! The coach reminded her, why is it that you moved here? "we liked the slower pace ... oh, yeah."

Yeah. That's what it's about. Live where you want.

Find out more about Des at www.deswalsh.com and www.thinkinghomebusiness.com. He said he always has to explain why he chose that name, Thinking Home Business. It's not get rich quick on the internet businesses. It's about professionals who use the technology tools to work from home.

I want to add a shout-out for Des as well - a top bloke, and a very experienced and passionate blogger.

It was great to meet you and share some experiences - which as you observed can be remarkably similar, even when the people are separated by vast oceans. I talked also with a rancher from Montana who, like you and I, enjoyed BlogWorld Expo. I hope we see more bloggers and would-be bloggers from Smalltown, Some State, The World, at BlogWorld Expo next year!

And thanks to Scott for the kind words. He's a good guy too and I'm not saying that just because he complimented me :).
