Re: Holiday Gift Guide, Part 1: 3 Ways to Incorporate Charitable Giving

Harry Hoover — Wed, 28 Nov 2007 15:27:35 -0000

I started promoting Holiday for Charity in 2002. The idea is for you to tell anyone who would give you a gift to make a donation to the charity of their choice in your name. They get to give money to their charity, take the tax write-off and you don't get another tie you won't wear. You'll find more information about this and other charitable giving ideas for the holidays at http://www.my-creativeteam....

New, feature-rich software does not necessarily make for a better presentation. The more the software lets you do, the more it is abused. I`m tired of logos flying in and text jumping all over the place. Just give me good content, interestingly and simply presented and I`m happy.

Re: How Spying On Your Friends Causes Reevaluation of Endorsed Content

Harry Hoover — Thu, 01 May 2008 09:28:25 -0000

Even without FriendFeed you should use discretion. If you use Facebook aps for StumbleUpon, etc. you are telling everyone what you are thumbing up. I come down on the side of translucency instead of transparency.

Excellent information on the online aspects of personal branding. I have written a personal branding white paper that is more about your offline activities that may be of interest to you and your community.

Re: Did I offend the Baby Boomers?

Harry Hoover — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 08:49:40 -0000

As an older Boomer (56), I think I can safely say that one of the biggest problem with members of my cohort is that they get offended about everything. Last time I checked freedom from offense was not one of our Constitutional Rights. So, keep up the good work, Jeremiah, and don't worry about offending anyone.

Re: Why Invent New Words? Just be Clear

Harry Hoover — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 10:04:57 -0000

It's not just the new words that chap my rear, it's the nonsensical phrases like "not in my wheelhouse" and "end-to-end enterprise-wide solution". How about we all talk like people for a change?

Apparently, the county (the city, too)have not heard that we have a Chamber of Commerce which handles economic development at no cost to taxpayers.

Re: A Journalist's Survival Guide

Harry Hoover — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 14:02:13 -0000

Scott, I started in journalism in 1977. Talk about low tech. We were using Royal manual typewriters. But that is a story for another day. You have nailed how journalists of the future need to respond to the changing environment. My son graduates in a year and has always wanted to be an automotive journalist. May not be an automotive industry for him to cover. I'm pointing him to this excellent post.

Re: Business Pulse: More oversight at United Way?

Harry Hoover — Tue, 16 Dec 2008 15:12:00 -0000

I don't fault any CEO for his or her pay package. The board is at fault. We need to clean house on the United Way board and appoint people who truly represent the area. As long as you have the same old group of wealthy Charlotteans on the board, nothing will change.

Re: Blogging is like…The Blues

Harry Hoover — Mon, 12 Jan 2009 12:19:40 -0000

Excellent points and post, Scott. Like the blues, the best blogs remind us that despite our differences the human condition is universal and we have more in common than we sometimes think.

Re: Business Pulse: Do you agree with Rush Limbaugh's statement that he hopes President Obama's reform efforts, including large portions of his economic recovery plan, fail?

Harry Hoover — Wed, 11 Mar 2009 15:03:00 -0000

Your question is typical of the media misrepresentation on this issue. Limbaugh says he wants Obama's policies to fail because they are antithetical to capitalism.
