It’s Like Open Mic Only Different
Here’s how it works.
It’s like any rambling conversation. Don’t try to read it all. Jump in whenever you get here. Just go to the end and start talking. EVERYONE is WELCOME.
The rules are simple — be nice.
There are always first timers and new things to talk about. It’s sort of half “Cheers” part “Friends” and part video game. You don’t know how much fun it is until you try it.
Cold Calls, Spam, and Uninvited Visitors — What’s the Difference Between. . .
. . . the folks who are helpful and the folks who want to sell ya? How can you let the people who have something of value get to your door and keep the others away? Who’s a friend? How can be one? What the best way to approach someone you don’t know?
How do you differentiate between
- Givers or Takers
- Invitations or Spam
- A Fan or A Stalker
- A Cold Call or A Warm Hello
And, whatever else comes up, including THE EVER POPULAR, Basil the code-writing donkey . . . and flamenco dancing (because we always get off topic, anyway.)
Oh, and bring example links to share — especially examples of great ways to say hello!
