"Ok, Dear Google,, If I've done something wrong with my blog, here's your chance to let the public know precisely what I've done. Tell 'em! I can take it! If, on the other hand, I've done nothing wrong with my blog, "Don't Be Evil"*, Google! Gimme my blog back! :-) I started an informal blog more than four years ago, calling it "The Linkedin Business Discussion Index". I started it before I knew that there were any "RULES" of blogging. Mainly I played with blogging. Never made a single, solitary penny from it. Never intended to make money from it. It was set up primarily as a means of sharing Linkedin-centric posts via a blog format for members of My Linkedin Power Forum (now at www.MyVirtualPowerForum.com) Period. I eventually decided to rename the blog to "Social Media Consortium", thus, yielding the blogspot URL: http://SocialMediaConsortium.blogspot.com (with a 301 redirect from www.SocialMediaConsortium.com)" - Vincent Wright from Bookmarklet

"YOU are your own worst enemy. Somewhere along the line you took on, bought into, and started to believe in a very underhanded way that money and wealth was something that will forever be out of reach. About now you are going to be saying “This guy is completely MAD! Of course I want money and wealth”." - Vincent Wright from Bookmarklet

"This year I started a movement. It's purpose is to awaken hearts to the use of practical compassion. People are drawn to the movement because we all recognize that there is not enough compassion in our world, and in our lives. Discovering how to be compassionate in all aspects of our lives is important, not just to us, but to our world, and to our children." - Vincent Wright from Bookmarklet

"JPMorgan Chase's retail banking arm is giving away $5 million to charity via a Facebook promotion. The Chase Community Giving Facebook application encourages Facebook users to choose from more than 500,000 small and local charities to decide which community organizations they want to receive donations from Chase's corporate philanthropy fund. Chase is running media across Facebook as well as elsewhere online and in print to promote the initiative, according to a spokesperson for Context Optional, which created the application. "Even though this is a Facebook-based program, we've already had over 100,000 visitors from Twitter alone," the spokesperson tells Marketing Daily." - Vincent Wright from Bookmarklet

Keep a list of emergency rescue service numbers next to the telephone and in your pocket, wallet or purse.

"Many of us need a little funding support for some of the ideas we have. And though some may say that ideas are a dime a dozen, fresh ideas are still the things which drive and improve the world." - Vincent Wright from Bookmarklet

People with accents REALLY need to learn that. I always leave a verbal cue a number or email is about to be recited, then I repeat. - Anika

Ironically, Anika, the person whose voicemail messages prompted me to write that particular tweet is from the SAME part of the USA where I was born! :-) She left a couple of voicemail messages within a couple hour period of time each being said very rapidly - none of which was clear enough for me to get either her name nor her phone number...hopefully I'll be able to catch her on her next try...lol - Vincent Wright from email

Oh man...good luck! - Anika

"My Job TIGER emphasizes the great importance a tiger-like ATTITUDE plays in conducting a successful job search. Today, you must FOCUS on finding great opportunities and be more assertive than you may have been comfortable being in the past. Many talented people miss out on great opportunities because they don't try their best every day. For at least 4 hours each day, your job search must be your job until your search finds you a job." - Vincent Wright from Bookmarklet
