Welcome to my Blog

What do you post to your first entry for a daily blog? Well, briefly, let me tell you why I decided to launch this blog.

Recently, I attended a Microsoft Live Meeting sponsored webinar entitled "Blogging For Business." It was presented by Jim Coudal of Coudal Partners and Anil Dash of Six Apart. It was a well spent one hour of interactive discussions on the merits of blogging

P.S. It is nearly June 2019 and I am reviewing my over 500 blog posts in my Julie Ann Brady Blog On Google blog. Holy smokes, but I see a lot of development throughout the nearly fifteen years of blogging. I've not removed my early blog posts so as to show the progression. If you want to blog, go ahead and do it.
