Well, I can’t sing beautifully like my good friend Kami Huyse, who tagged<\/a> me in the media snackers meme started by Jeremiah Owyang<\/a>. Geoff Livingston already did the pet exploitation thing <\/a>so I can’t leverage my dogs and cats, even though my puppy <\/a>is REALLY cute. <\/p>\n

While I’ve been known to invoke my child on this blog occasionally, and on my photo blog Snapshot Chronicles<\/a> all the time, I can’t quite figure out an angle for him here, other than that he is pretty much a media snacker in the making. <\/p>\n

Many others playing this lovely game have already talked about Twitter<\/a> and Delicious media snacks, and while they are yummy, I won’t serve them again here. One needs variety.<\/p>\n

And that’s the first way this blog feeds the media snacker. Variety.<\/strong> I have a wide variety of interests, and I mention them all here. Always with a marketing and communications angle. So, one day you’ll find a post about SciFi Channel, with a heavy dose of Battlestar Galactica. And the next day, a gender rant. Followed by something completely different. Like politics and the presidential election. Stick around, you’ll find all sorts of different snacks.<\/p>\n

I regularly do round-up posts<\/strong> of different, usually unrelated things that interest me, most recently a post called Thirteen to One<\/a> in honor of the Red Sox win in the first World Series game. Some items are almost\u00a0 "mini-posts," other items just one line. Easy to scan, not hard to follow. Snack food.<\/p>\n

Sometimes I write long. When I do, I put a long post warning<\/strong> at the top. If the topic greatly interests you, you’ll sit down, set for a while. If it doesn’t, you won’t get sucked in and then pissed because the post goes on and on and on and on…..<\/p>\n

Sometimes I’m funny.<\/strong> They say. You be the judge. Not as funny as some of my esteemed colleagues<\/a> who are about to get tagged, but hey, I still have my pride. <\/p>\n

And finally, even though I respect the right of someone to "read and run," I do hope they stick around for a while, once in a while. Pull up a chair at the table and read some of my longer posts. Comment on them. Challenge my arguments. Nothing pleases me more than comments on this blog, and particularly those from students and young professionals who, although they may be the "snacking generation,"\u00a0 are clearly taking the time to dig in and learn. And in the process, they become part of our education. <\/p>\n

And that is the most delicious snack of all. We are all teachers. We are all learners. YUM!<\/p>\n

That’s it. Don’t want you to get too full. <\/p>\n

I’m tagging David Wescott<\/a>, Scott Baradell<\/a>, Robert French<\/a>, Sherrilynne Starkie<\/a> and Sam Whitmore<\/a>.<\/p>\n
