Thanksgiving is one of the few times a year I pause from my normal routine of sarcasm and savor moments, memories, friends and family. I suppose that’s the point of it all, but it’s easy to take things for granted and “suffer” through another holiday with annoying family members.
So, surprising to those who know me, being tagged by Ike Pigott in Kami Hyuse’s “Thanks for the Influence” meme is a welcome project as the holiday approaches.
And for the record, I have been promoted from eighth generation meme tag-ee to second generation (Kami started, tagged Ike, who tagged me.) so I’m moving up in the world. For that, I am thankful!
It’s official. I’m the Web 2.0 equivalent of upper-middle management. (Not neccessarily a bad thing, I guess.) Just six days after Jeremiah Owyang started the “Do You Respect Media Snackers” meme, I’ve been tagged.
YES! LESS THAN A WEEK! BOO-YAH!
And to boot, I’ve been tagged by the thinking man’s PR wizard, Ike Pigott. (And concurrently by conversation queen Valeria Maltoni at Conversation Agent, though I was unaware of it and added this line after posting … sorry Valeria, and thanks!) So, I’d like to thank the Academy of Cool Social Media and PR Bloggers for allowing me to join the likes of Chris Brogan, Kami Huyse, Todd Defren, Kevin Dugan, Connie Bensen, David Yeo, Connie Reece, Lauren Vargas, Geoff Livingston and a bunch of others in responding.
