Working on a contract for an October 16-17, 2010 for workshop in Jacksonville, Florida.
Art & Soul Radio interviewed me about blogging for artists. Listen here (It's a one-hour show and I start about halfway through, but don't miss the first guest).
Just reading about big new Facebook “Community” Pages from Joan Stewart, The Publicity Hound, in her newsletter. (Link is to a separate article. Joan's newsletter is great! I really recommend it and I'm an affiliate for her info products.)
FOR THOUGHT
“When an artist stops work before his art is received, his work is unfulfilled.”-Seth Godin in Linchpin
I prefer Twitter links that go to a blog instead of FB. Am I being old-fashioned?
1 thought on “@abstanfield Tweekly”
Grinning at the thought that blogs are ‘old-fashioned.’ I’m with you, though. FB is a mashup kind of thing. And its layout is becoming seriously cluttered. A tweet-link should go directly to the item with no intermediary. I get impatient if I have to click more than once to get there.
BTW, your comment thing has a deficiency: If I ‘preview’ (as I always do, when possible) before posting, I must enter the ID stuff at least twice; once for the preview and again for the posting. If I make corrections (almost always) and preview again, it’s three times, and so forth.
