      <title>This is your brand on blogs.</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Life has been busy lately! I&amp;#8217;ve gotten engaged, will be married this December, holidays are coming, there&amp;#8217;s lots of work to do with &lt;a href="http://www.rocketdogcreative.com"&gt;Rocket Dog Creative&lt;/a&gt; and other projects, and I&amp;#8217;ve had a cold I can&amp;#8217;t shake.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;Not that these things shouldn&amp;#8217;t be high priority, but every once and a while I get a good reminder to keep working on this blog.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.maryschmidt.com/2006/11/15/i-dont-have-time-to-play-on-the-computer/"&gt;Mary Schmidt&lt;/a&gt; posted about a great visual reminder from &lt;a href="http://www.converstations.com/2006/11/web_site_vs_blo.html#comments"&gt;Mike Sansone&lt;/a&gt; on why blogging is important. It&amp;#8217;s worth passing along:&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;Your web presence &lt;em&gt;without&lt;/em&gt; a blog:&lt;/p&gt;
