Don’t ask me why, but we have a unicycle in our office. I’m not sure if Paul Deeds has high hopes of being part of a circus act or if Larry is looking for some supplemental income by becoming a unicycle-riding street performer, but it’s here and it’s always waiting for the next brave soul…
Read MoreHubs versus Blogs
I still consider myself a newcomer to hubbing. Since I started at HubPages on June 30, it has really been a great opportunity to reexamine my experience with blogging.

Read MoreTwitter officially hits the bigtime with some CNN love
There I was in Las Vegas, just chillin’ in my hotel room when I saw this come up on the TV. Apparently CNN has integrated Twitter as a new way to get some real-time questions on air. The Twitter account that CNN uses is @Issue1cnn and they seem to be using the micro-blogging tool…
