I’m about to head to the airport here in Phoenix. While we are in Nashville feel free to come talk to me about the blog, things that you would like to see covered, anger at my blatant use of comma splices, whatever you want.

I won’t be bringing a laptop (so I won’t be tempted) so I will probably not be posting anything until I get back to Phoenix to write a recap post.

See you soon.

Thank you to all my friends, family, and readers that donated yesterday.

So I made the mistake of waiting for my economic stimulus check from W (that I now find out I won’t get until mid-July because I paid my filing fee from my return) to book my flight to Nashville, and now it is going to cost $600 to get me there.

Unfortunately with the consulting business being slow right now in AZ and the fact that I no longer make the big state party money (snark intended) I need some help paying for it. So if you want to see me in Nashville, or if my posts here, Future Majority, or the YDA blog have been useful to you or your chapter, or if you have benefited from my liberal sharing of cloves, then please make a donation to the Send Kevin to Nashville Fund on Paypal.

And if you donate enough I will complete a graphic design project, or some other project based on my consulting services, for you or your chapter.

Thank you all in advance.

I got curious and looked on the trends page of my Google Reader, and this is what I see. This is what happens when you professionally screw around on the internet.

I have switched the blog comments system from the basic Wordpress system to Disqus. If you have left comments on previous posts, they are still there and the comment system is the same. The Disqus system will affect all prior posts that did not have comments as well as all of my future posts from now on.

Using Disqus allows you to comment on many different blogs without having to re-enter your contact information every time.

I hope that you will find the switch to be an improvement. Here are some of the benefits you will see:

• Threaded comments that make it easy to reply to other comments.
• Integration of video comments.
• Ability to rate the comments of other readers.

Let me know what you think of the new system, and please comment on some posts so we can get a feel for how it will work.

If you have any topics that you would like covered, tutorials your would like to see, questions you would like answered, etc., leave a suggestion in the comments or email me at kbondelli(at)gmail(dot)com.

My blog has moved from http://ydabondelli.wordpress.com to http://www.kevinbondelli.com.

The site has a new design and is now self-hosted, which means I have the flexibility that I lacked with wordpress.com.

All the posts from the previous blog have been transfered over here, as well as the comments.

The RSS feed has not changed and was transfered over to this site, so if you are subscribed everything is already taken care of.

Thanks for reading this site and let me know what you think.

In order to test out the new Google Documents form tool, I’m asking people two simple questions: Where should I move? and Where do you think I actually will move?

As some of you may have heard I am thinking about leaving Arizona, mostly because there aren’t many professional opportunities here anymore. In your opinion, where should I relocate, and where do you think I will actually end up.

The options are based on places suggested to me over the last few months. You may use the other field by typing City, State Abbreviation.

Fill out the form at: http://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?key=pBy3TuFg6gpjpk7ysY0iyVQ

Once I have enough data I will post the results using the Google Docs tool and then write about how you could use the tool for your organization.

After a brief misunderstanding with wordpress the blog is now back up and running. Thank you to everyone that took action supporting the blog.
