So far these counters have different strengths. I really like StatCounter's graphs and pie charts. There is some wow in seeing the different countries that visit the site. For you newbies, these links are at the very bottom left of this page.

Some of you are wondering why I would title a blog this way when it's so obvious to you that you can receive WeAreGrowing free quite easily. Let's keep in mind that not everyone has the same level of understanding about the internet. The very same thing could be true in your business or career. Are you forgetting about the beginners?

I was teaching a group of people about how they can use the internet to network their relationships the other night and realized how far I have come in the last couple years. I am a beginner with regard to blogging [- but I'm willing to learn!]
However, I have now been connected to the net for 8 years through email. [I still remember asking my roommate if he could "get me email" and he's even gone now. Eight years is a long time on the net.] I spoke about putting your profile up on the net through LinkedIn and there was not just a lack of knowledge, but resistance. Let's keep in mind what we know about what we know and not forget the perspective of someone new.

I read an article recently in the Harvard Business Review about negotiating and remembering the relationship you still want to have after the negotiations. When you force someone into a position that they don't want to be in, that's not good for the relationship. If your organization wants you to negotiate in a way that's most certainly detrimental to your relationships, circulate the article. Of course, the vast majority of us want to do right thing, but this article points out the smart business reasons that will appeal to everyone looking to improve the bottom line.

I can't find that article online, but if you go to the library, I know it's in the past two or three month's issues. Here's a little something from them:

Another Negotiation Article from Harvard Business


Here at my blog and your website there's a dance of negotiation going on. How do we get you to participate more? To stay and interact with the site more? How do we conform the technology to the human beings as much as possible and not force the human beings to conform to the technology? I'm in search of this and if you want more fame, results or income for/from your site, you should be interested in this idea, too.

I'm amazed that Vons has these Disney ads on the surface of the pay machine at the checkout. These get in my way physically. I'm considering not going to Vons for a while if they don't get rid of them. You're forced to interact with the machine unless you pay cash and don't use your Vons club card. Plus, I don't really want another advertisement shoved in my face in the "live" world. I guess I'm used to it somewhat on the internet, but I don't enjoy that spillover with the grocery store checkout machine that I'm pretty much forced to use in order to get the best price. I'm sorry that Vons management made a very, very bad choice with their investment in a company that lost them in the neighborhood of $500 million and then punished their employees for their failure, but I'm not part of their corporate family. By the way, I didn't start out to talk about Vons. This just flowed out.
