That’s right! Ed’s got another webisode of ContentContent up, and this time, it’s with Ben Woelk! Ben was one of the first people I met when I first got involved with the STC, and he’s been one of the great mentors I’ve had within STC ever since then.

His take on introverted leadership has been catching like wildfire in the last year, as I think he’s tapped into something that many technical communicators grapple with–how to be a leader when you are an introverted person.

Take a listen, and let Ed know what you think about the webisode!

My buddy, Ed Marsh, has written and excellent article about the benefits of using some of the WordPress plug-ins out there, and how one tool in particular helped him see inefficiencies in his own WordPress site, as well as with other WordPress sites he’d been working on.

I use the WordPress hosted site for my blog, so I haven’t tried in this plug-in, but knowning Ed, he put this particular plug-in through its paces, and it sounds like a great resource. Read more at the link above.
