Josh Hersh commented on Barry Chandler's blog post Why bar/restaurant owners should NOT blog."Great advice!! Yes, a blog takes a TON of work and it's only effective if you're actually consistent and writing about things that educate/inform your readers.

The official announcement from Facebook is today, but there are tips floating around the interwebs. Below are a rundown of some links to check out.

Many thanks. . Yes, Jim is a good friend and respected colleague. He's one of the original "good guys" in my opinion -- a fighter for truth and *business outcomes*. His book is great stuff! Nice to know you.
