I debated what to write as my final 2009 post, then it was debating around what to write for my first post in 2010.  Then it hit me, as much information as I take in, blogs I read and people I talk with, I’ve realized my “word” for 2010 will be…action.  Take action.  I sit and consume stellar blog posts and have encouraging conversations which are vital to my success, but realize over the past few years, I’ve had a hard time pulling the trigger on things.  More importantly, I need to focus my efforts, then take the next step.  Action.

So it’s time…thank you, my community, for providing me with the creativity and passion to continue moving things forward.  What will you be focusing on in the New Year and are there ways that I can help you?

Collectively, let’s conspire to make it a great year.

From our family to yours…
Here’s to wishing you Happy Holidays & a Merry Christmas!

It’s been awhile, but getting back in the saddle here as well!

A lot going on and 2010 is already starting to look interesting.  I’ve got a number of different events and activities already slated including SXSW 2010 in which we’ll be speaking on a panel during the Interactive component, holding a “little” party as well as several other speaking engagements already lined up.

Hang on and you’ll be hearing a lot more from me over the next few weeks!

The planning is in full force for next year’s Big Omaha event…

Yep, we’re doing it again.  Keep your eyes on the Big Omaha site or follow us on Twitter where we’ll be making annoucements as things come together.

Cranking through next year’s sponsorship document and looking at photos of last year’s event reminds me of the power of an idea and a strong community.

Almost 500 people came to Omaha, NE for two and a half days of intense energy, motivation and creativity that won’t soon be forgotten, and honestly, I’m still clicking from last year’s event and will make sure 2010 is even better.  Thank you.

I wanted to include a link to our latest, 99% comprehensive, article on Why We Love Omaha and the reason I’m doing what I love through Silicon Prairie News, Big Omaha and more…

Take a read and let me know what you think.

So I was able to resurect Marc Andreessen’s stellar post on Personal Productvity and in the interest of never losing it again, I’ve decide to post it in its entirety.  Enjoy and there’s some great nuggets in there…

I’m really looking forward to Gary’s book, getting ready to launch in October…

This guy, along with the entire list of speakers at BIGOmaha was phenomenal and knowing he’s now putting out a “blueprint for success” is even better. I don’t recommend books, nor authors, frequently, but this is a can’t miss.

Also, keep posted to BIGOmaha for Gary and the rest of the speaker’s talks from this year’s event!

Now go out and preorder the book and let’s get Gary on the Top 10 before the book even ships!
