Whistle Stops – 07/28/06

Whistlestops_33 When I come across a blog that’s new, I place it in a feed folder I’ve named "Watch" and eventually give it a permanent place or unsubscribe.  Here are a few that have found a permanent place.

  • SportsLizard Entrepreneur Blog by Adam McFarland. Adam runs (among other things), iPrioritize. I think I may take advantage of his generous offer – if I can find the time:-) Adam also points us to tizoko. Another great find!
  • Experiments – Trial by Fire by Harsha Raghavan. Sometimes you’ve got to step out on a limb – that’s where the fruit is. Sometimes the branch breaks, sometimes you grab the fruit. Without the experiment, all you’re holding is a trunk of bark. Here’s one vote for Harsha on KMM.
  • Blue Sky Resumes Blog by Louise Fletcher. I’m a big fan of resume/blogs. Most of the HR pros I talk to say that a resume/blog would assist in pre- and post-interview process and give a real sense of who the applicant really is. Though I don’t see it on their services page (yet), I’m hoping to find that this team helps others launch resume/blog sites.

I find that having a "watch" folder allows me to keep my feeds to a minimum – which currently hovers around 600. 

Aside: Has it been that long (over a month) since we did Whistle Stops?
