My First Lunch Blog

Right now I have bloggers block, but I will go with that. With everyone tightening their money belts; this fits in with what I have frequently had to do in my professional career; develop whatever is asked with limited resources, knowledge, and time. But I have always had a wild card, many of you know of the online version as social networking, but the spin on that term is pro networking. If you follow me on twitter or see who I follow on twitter, these people are invested professionals. An invested professional is someone that gives/receives feedback for professional personal growth. As I am writing this blog new “tweets” are popping up with twhirl, which I highly recommend if you want to tweet from your desk without keeping a browser window open with the temptation of reading every tweet that is posted.

If you don’t know what twitter is, I am going to do a little write up about it; not how everyone uses it, how I use it; for the purpose of a Pro Network tool. This is the beginning of a series of posts that I will be writing about twitter and Pro Networking tools. Now I am not saying my way is the best way to use the tools that will appear in future posts; in fact I know it isn’t. That’s the power of Pro Networks. Most everyone I follow on twitter, is more knowledgeable than I am, but I help when I can. Is my help always good? No, but you can’t grow in any professional network or career if you don’t try.

Follow me on my twitter page or link to my blog as I will be posting “simple” step by step posts and for those of you that use these same tools or just what to know what they are. For those of you that are in the know, I need your “Pro Network” feedback, otherwise I will need to change my blog to “Clueless Chris”; well, if it gets visitors I can go for that. If you are just here to find out what this is all about and have questions, ask them. It might be the piece of knowledge that you need to understand what you might see as mumbo jumbo.

Talk to you soon.

Chris
