a Blog post and add to this group and I will forward it to all of my list and subscribers.

Response to questions: I invited you to site xyz and you did not post… actualy I spend 20 hrs a day supporting local business. Unless company XYZ is contributing or investing in local area or community projects or the general tech community I am not interested. I understand what it takes to build and keep a strong email list and what marketing cost, yes I maintain a presence on most of these networks, however I will be using the widgets from My.AtogunaTV.com to update.
