We email and talk on the phone to each other a lot, get together face-to-face now and then, and have naturally co-led social networking workshops. While we were initially more friendly than friends, we are now more friends than friendly.

It is common, especially when attending your first social media workshop or listening to your first conference panel or webinar on the topic, to be confused. We all — people and organizations — do what we do because of rationales specific to ourselves. This is hard for many to understand.

Had I the foresight to consider where my blogging would take me, and how that blogging would segue into leading workshops and organizational consulting, I wouldn’t have bought the domain — and would have built this blog around my other domain. That other domain — ariherzog.com — is where this blog will shortly be.

A frequent attendee of social media workshops and conferences in the 60-mile radius of where I live, I have met many people who are aligned with the work I am also passionate about. But at the time, I feel that business professionals should work more closely with peers in the same industry. Why must we compete?

I later taught digital marketing workshops on those specific topics to individuals and small groups. I helped small business owners, large business managers, nonprofit directors, and anyone in between with social media. Maybe they wanted help understanding Twitter or building a Facebook page or designing a blog or starting on LinkedIn.

I teach workshops on social networking and news writing to college students. I can walk the walk. I’ve walked through public sector management for 5 years, assisted by my holding a Master in Public Administration and entering elected office last year. But enough horn tooting.

Some people see me speak at a workshop and want to befriend and learn more. Rereading Chris Brogan’s short-lived experimentation of having a Facebook page to boost branding — explaining why he created the page in January 2009 and why he deleted it by June — I blinked and had an epiphany.

The budget workshop schedule is here. Unless the mayor is willing to increase the municipal appropriation requirement for the library, I can either vote to approve or not approve her proposed reduction for the library. But what does it mean if I say yes to the library and no to other departments? Public comment is built into it.
