So, I've been wanting to change my website for some time, but haven't had time to do it. I worked with Ali Akbar for months on and off when we had a chance to chat talking colors and ideas to make my blog look more like "me". Turns out, I'm rather difficult to pin down.
David Armano a Twitter friend (we've never met, but I value his perspective and suspect I'd like him in person) has a must-read piece about trust in the media. And since we are all media now, who do we trust? His whole piece is worth reading, so please go look at the research, and then come back here for my thoughts.
David Almacy now of Edleman Public Relations as Senior Vice President for Digital Affairs and formerly White House Internet and E Communications Office Director of Media Affairs for President Bush, spoke with me about the White House's claim that the website the Obama team received was archaic and out-of-date. This simply was not true. As part of the "smoothest transition in history", President Bush had a brand new website ready for whichever new administration took office.
