Despite the nice warm weather in late April, our campus is never “ready” until mid-May when all the students are gone, so that makes August a busy time for campus shots. It’s just hard convincing the “word and design” people that even though it’s warm and the sun is shining in late April, there’s no leaves on the trees, but they still request campus shots in April anyways.
Oh well.

Joe, you’re right. If anyone has a marketing action plan it’s you. I have held that each portal serves a function. But as you know, the magic of the message is effective communication. I now see that Twitter is more effective for communicating with folks who already are interested, such as alumni! or potential clients?

I just heard that the dog days of summer ends on August 11. Someone forgot to pass that on to the hounds in Georgia.

Hey Paul:

I’m a firm believer in traditional marketing strategies, but you CAN’T afford to not be on the social web.

Hope all is well down south and business is healthy.

While teenagers may not be the force driving Twitter, they're certainly adding greater steam to it. (Which turns out to be great for anyone with a message they want to convey.) Adam @Advent Creative Web Design

Nick, it’s a tough loss and I can relate. My take on the DVD storage is that the discs don’t get used often so if they are verified I think they have a good chance of preserving the data for a long time, how long? I don’t have a clue. No matter, long term storage is an issue and I’ve always wanted a less is more solution. Perhaps one day I’ll get to those old transparencies.
