Why Twitter?
Twitter can be an amazingly powerful platform for connecting to your community as well as driving traffic to the various properties you want people to go. Having an event? Tweet it out! Launched a new bag? Tweet it out!
The key to Twitter is the level of listening you do as well as talking. It [...]
Well…it’s finalized…
I’M WRITING A BOOK! Wa-hoo!
Thanks to my amazing agents, Danielle and James at Levine Greenberg, I signed a book deal with the awesome Crown Publishing and get to work with fabulous editor John Mahaney over there. I’m heading to NYC this weekend so that I can sit down and meet with him regarding all [...]
I’ve talked about this topic in a couple of places, but I don’t think I’ve actually posted what we ended up kind of coming up with as pretty decent measurements of the health of a community. But, perhaps I should first define what I mean by community health:
The health of a community is the gauge [...]
Today Citizen Agency is one year old. Wow. That feels good.
We’ve been all over the world. Talked to anyone who will listen. Learnt a helluvalot. Met so many amazing people. Worked with some great clients. Had oodles of wins and very few setbacks. And the thing I’m most proud about: we didn’t go into a [...]
Well, we sure as heck aren’t going to write a book on Getting Things Done (Chris couldn’t even get through the first chapter without getting distracted), but a couple of weeks ago, I received a totally surprising, but exciting email from a literary agent interested in helping us put a proposal together for a book.
Yep. [...]

Stay tuned, because we’ll also post the slides to Slideshare as well as the notes from the session soon!
See you [...]

Last week, a group of us had the distinct pleasure of doing a 2-hour seminar with the delightful Lura Dolas, an acting coach who also trains speakers, business professionals and lawyers how to ‘reassure’ their audiences. Her technique is here…and it was wonderfully gentle and extremely helpful.
At the [...]
Well, it’s with a heavy heart that I announce that Ben Metcalfe is leaving Citizen Agency. I’m sure you are wondering, “What happened?”
There are really no sordid details.
We were really excited when Ben joined us in the fall and he and Sofia (his wife) have fit into the SF scene incredibly well (where they [...]
Another year, another Macworld is upon us and it is a screamin’ busy week for those of us in San Francisco.
Chris has listed a comprehensive list of events here, some of them actually taking place at Citizen Space like the uber awesome Net Tuesday, this month all about Open Source, Open Access Library Publishing…basically a [...]
Tim O told Chris and I something interesting recently:
“Someone once told me that if you see a parade, get in front of it.”
We all laughed, but the analogy has continued to resonate with me. What does it mean to get in front of a parade? Why not just join in? Why not just watch from [...]
