Brag Basket Bulging with Good News

By Small Biz Survival

brag basketEach Friday, I open the brag basket as a fun place to brag or promote yourself and your projects.

Last week, Derek made his first brag on his new blog, Doug was proud to be featured in a PR roundtable, Erica bragged on her new job and salary negotiating, Lea was excited to hold a copy of her own book, Joe bragged about learning new programming skills, Jeanne bragged (2nd week in a row!) that she set up a blog all by herself, Connie was stepping out of her comfort zone to do some videos, and Mark bragged on rounding up more contest participants than this time last year! Whew! What an amazing week!

What will you brag about this week? You can brag on your business, your community, or your self. You can even brag on other folks, if you want. It’s fun, and you get a link back, not to mention applause from us.

You can leave a comment right now, or dm me on Twitter.

    Shasi also sent this great info by email:

    I love to talk to people and help anyone who needs help. I have been blogging for about 4 years and enjoy the Social Media. Technology wise Ham Radio in the 80’s , IRC in the 90s gave me the same thrill of meeting new people as Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin do today. I am planning to be active in the Social media scene in the DC area. Before being a techie i was actually in the hotel business. I think meeting people gives me a adrenalin rush and that why I enjoyed being in the hotel business. Technology was always a hoby so I made my hobby my profession:
