Brag Basket is wide open

By Small Biz Survival

Each week, I open the Brag Basket. It’s designed as a fun place for you to share your projects and accomplishments. But you can also cheer for other people, give shout outs, congratulate, and even give someone a well-deserved pat on the back.

The Brag Basket is open for everyone, whether from a small town, a big city, or anywhere in the world. (But it’s true that I love small town brags!)

Will you put something in the Brag Basket this week? You can brag on a friend, your own project, yourself, others, anything! You don’t need special permission, and you don’t have to be from a small town. Just leave a comment right here. There’s no deadline, so you can brag anytime during the weekend, and I’ll open a fresh Brag Basket each Friday.

New to SmallBizSurvival.com? Take the Guided Tour. Like what you see? Get our updates.

    This week, two great people wrote very kind things about me.

    Shannon Ehlers’ guest post here was nominated for a SEMMY, so he wrote a thank you at his blog, the midnight blogger. Congrats, Shannon, and thank you!

    Des Walsh also published a Social Media Case Study about me with lots of kind words, and then when he put a pointer on his other site, it turned into a manifesto for How Blogging Can Help Rural and Small Town Business. Double thanks, Des. I’m hopeful we’ll be able to coordinate a new project to help small town business with these new tools we’re both so passionate about.

    I’d like to brag about the blogger, http://www.feverbee.com. I learn quite a bit from this blogger about how to build an online community. Some of you out there might enjoy bookmarking and visiting hi blog.
