#Palgives at BlogPaws 2013 - An Update
The hustle and bustle of the 2013 BlogPaws conference three months ago is still ringing in our ears. The learning, the networking, the laughter, the sponsors, the swag and all the friendly faces - both furry and not! We love knowing the conference vibe carries on when we read updates like the on...

Welcome- Molly, the New Kitty at Our House
Yesterday we were so fortunate to bring a new member into our house. Her name is Molly. She's a long-haired, 8 year old kitty who comes from a wonderful home (with dogs), locally. Her former Mom, Rosemarie, was devastated to give her up but her allergies have just become too difficult to deal wi...

Mom could definitely use a nearby - but not in our apartment - office. Working from home for her often ends up with her working on the computer 24/7. Just when she thinks she's 'done' for the day, or taking a break, something triggers something else she needs to do and there she is, working again. Dad hates it. He wants her to go back to a job with an office so she can 'come home,' rather than being home all the time, but unavailable! I love it though, since my favorite spot in the world is on the floor at her feet when she's on the computer! =^..^=
No office or home office?
by Yvonne DiVita - Co-Founder of BlogPaws Are you struggling with the concept of a home office as opposed to an office away from home? Entrepreneurs and solo-preneurs often have issues with working from home. If you're part of a family (of more than two - more than you and your significant oth...
Those are all very good points, Carol - and Colby, I'm with you on #1!
I've come away from each BlogPaws I've attended with a new group of friends. A lot of us are so busy every day with whatever it is we do for a living, caring for our pets, volunteering, family obligations, and being bloggers - a lot of solo computer time. A social life is a luxury we may not allow ourselves much of.
BlogPaws puts the 'social' back in 'social networking.' Real life face-to-face friendships develop over those few days; Some with strangers with whom you have much in common, and some with people you've known online for years - like Heather (Brutus the Dane), Robin (Cheshire Kitten) and me, Kristin (Cokie the Cat), from The Anipal Times. We actually met for the first time this year at BlogPaws!
It gives me a sense of balance that I take home with me, a whole new reference when I connect with them later online, and it reminds me to give myself a little 'people' time now and then, too!
SOS to BlogPaws Fans: Why Should Someone Attend?
By Carol Bryant As a four-time attendee to the BlogPaws conferences, all of them with my dog in tow, I've become versed in the benefits during and after the event. I still, however, meet people who wonder if BlogPaws the conference is worth attending. I also meet people who are repeat attendee...

Friday Freebies for your Blog: Finding Free Images for Commercial Use with Compfight

Citizen Journalists
by Yvonne DiVita A few events this weekend have inspired me to post about honesty. Remember your teachers and your parents telling you, "Honesty is the best policy," when you were young? Remember your Mom or Dad saying, "Just tell the truth and you won't get in so much trouble." ? I do. In real...
Thank you for featuring the Twitter Tips for Beginners series on my blog; however, I must make one correction. I am a MAN CAT.
While I understand that due to my natural good looks (my adoption papers incorrectly listed me as 'female' and very nearly re-neutered me!) and my penchant for occasionally sporting a nice frock (my Twitter avatar at the time of this posting has me wearing a dress I borrowed from @EddieIzzard), I am most definitely all male and very comfortable in my heterosexuality, as my wife @jazzydacat will attest.
In fact, I am often mistaken for Daniel Craig.
Just wanted to clear up that small detail.
Thank you very much.

Twitter Tips from Cokie the Cat
It has come to our attention that some of our blog buddies don't tweet. That just seems wrong! But, we understand that some of our pet people (and their pets) just "don't get it." Cokie the Cat (who brought this to our attention) has a series of posts on this topic that can help newbies get st...
I really enjoyed your post, Tom. I'm going to bookmark it to return to later.
My favorite quote attributed to Steve Jobs has to be this one:
“Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently — they’re not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
My Favorite Steve Jobs "-isms"
By Tom Collins Full disclosure: I'm a PC. I'm not directly a fan of Apple or its products (food for a different post, or ten), but I've always been a huge fan of Steve Jobs and the spirit of innovation he embodied. His life and work made lots of other people, companies, and products better. In...
