In a conversation yesterday with a well known Community member, a statement was made that “some people have more time on their hands to post to newsgroups/blog”. The comment was aimed at myself and was not meant to be complimentary! I really think that those who have put themselves to be community leaders need to communicate through newsgroups and blogs, surely this is a prequesite for people taking them seriously and for them to give back to the community! Okay, I make a very minute contribution but I hope in some way it is useful and I like helping people!

Vijay,
Let’s take the example Vlad…
His blogs are somtimes longer than ‘The Sunday Times’, but how much time does he have to spare?
we all have priorities in our businesses. Some of us realise that the community is here and needs to be valued and grown. This can be achieved by the sharing of information, ideas and occasionally a bit of gossip to relieve the boredom.
Two points…
- work on your business more than you work in your business.
- never wish the job were easier, but that you were better at the job.
Both points relate to education, and the community, blogs, newsgroups and IM can be a fundamental part of that continuing education we all need.
Keep on fighting…

Don’t worry, I’ll keep fighting on!
