Every week, I open a new Basket. I call it the Brag Basket, but it’s not really about bragging. It’s about sharing. I started this so you can introduce yourself, share some good news, or congratulate a friend.
The basket is open all weekend, from May 7-9, 2010.
Speak up and add yourself or another deserving soul in the comments. We all cheer, and everyone feels great. It lets you meet each other a bit. Reading each others’ stories brings us a bit closer to being a community.
How does it work? You write a comment on this post, email me, tweet me, or comment on Facebook. You tell something great about your week, or you give applause to someone who did good stuff this week. Or you celebrate something wonderful that you tried that failed.
This is not an ad. (I delete the ads.) It’s a conversation with friends. So jump in. And remember to cheer for each other.

I’d like to offer a thanks to GL Hoffman, author of Start Up: 100 Tips To Get Your Business Going, it’s a good collection of tips and he’s kindly offered the electronic version for free: http://www.businessopportunitiesandideas.com/1299/start-up100-tips-to-get-your-business-going
I MUST brag about how excellent it was to spend IRL time with Becky, Deb, Glenda, Jon, Nancy, Andrew and Hope!!
John, we are big fans of GL, and have a post coming up about this tomorrow! :)
Paul, I MUST agree! Meaningful time together is a luxury.
Friendly reminder: I delete the ads. This is a conversation with friends. Use your real name, tell us something good, cheer for others. Save the ads and the Using-My-Company-Name-for-a-Link stuff for somewhere else. Thanks.
I love y’all, and want this to be fun, positive, and not an ad. Thanks!
Becky –
I had the perfect opportunity to work and relax with a group of multi gifted business associates and friends (there’s a rare combination). My thanks to Glenda for performing the back end of a lemur call perfectly every time, to Jon for the encouragement and letting us be in his space, to Paul for his design advice and to you for the shoulder and the serious butt kicking.
Deb
(and there’s no ad in that — well, maybe if I were to mention the http://www.smallbizsocialmediasummit.com lol)
An agency client told me this week that I made her look smart in a meeting. (That’s my job as their social media consultant, but it’s always nice to hear that you’re doing good work.)
Deb, thank you so much for joining us. It was one of those things you’ll long remember. (And the ad on the end was fine.)
Connie, that must have felt great. Congrats.
