The Friday Gathering For 10/26/2007
By glblguy
It is Friday again all already and time for my weekly Friday Gathering. Before I give you the links to my favorite posts this week, I have a couple of announcements:
- The M-Network aggregated feed has now changed over to a Feedburner feed. Make sure you subscribe to the new feed as it’s better and faster! The M-Network feed is an aggregated feed containing posts/articles from all 10 M-Network members. Of course you can still subscribe to just my feed. If you aren’t a subscriber, I’d encourage you to subscribe!
- The M-Network will have another group writing project coming up in November. Stay tuned for more details. Our first one was a huge success.
- I’ll be heading to the mountains this afternoon for a long weekend. I’ll be back on Wednesday (10/31) so no articles until I return. I can’t wait, as we really need the break.
- For those that have been following my broken wrist saga… I received word this week that I won’t require surgery (yeah!) and that I should heal up in 8-12 weeks with just a cast. Each day is getting a little better, and I am actually typing this post with both hands! Thanks again for all of your thoughts and prayers.
Now for the gathering!
