BlogShare-Echoflip

I would like to welcome you to my first ever weekly feature, BlogShare. Late in November I wrote a post about new things to come from me. Especially along the lines of community development and communication. BlogShare is a way for me to give back to my blog community. The idea is simple, once a week I will write a post about a blog I visit regularly, because listing a blog in the blog roll really doesn’t say anything other than I know how to post a link. I’ll write about what I enjoy and why I keep coming back to said blog. I hope this will be a useful feature for everyone, especially those whose blogs I visit regularly.

This weeks Blog: Echoflip

Echoflip is co-written by Matt Gondek and Jacki Vesci, but most of the posts are from Matt. I’ve only met Mat once or twice at the Creative Treehouse, but what keeps me coming back are the great links to all the different artists he posts. Ron English or these little nemo cartoons for example. I might also suggest he comment on Gary Baseman (seems to fit his style). It also helps that I like Matt’s sense of humor.

When Jacki writes a post it is usually about community events and we can always use another channel for things we need to check out. In previous conversations I’ve had with Jacki she is very interested in finding and communicating everything that is happening in Pittsburgh. As a person who doesn’t always take the time to pick up a city paper I would enjoy more posts and events from Jacki.

So if you check out Echoflip I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

   I agree. It’s always nice to get the inside scoop from talented artist. Sometimes you forget that those artist have favorites and get inspired too by others. Good idea for a blog feature.

   Hey Norm! Thanks for the feature of our website! I just updated about 5 minutes ago, but Matt has been doing a fantastic job of updating with interesting material while I hibernated for the beginning of winter. Also, Matt just added two writers to our website, so posts will increase dramatically.

   Send me an e-mail for upcoming events you might be attending, I would definitely like to get back out in the city and I haven’t seen you in months.
