Jackson is definitely an apathetic area, but I really thought the bloggers would cross that boundary. How in the world can a blogger be apathetic?

The staff of WJTV was very open and gracious to host this event and did not let the low attendance affect them, and we really appreciate that.

Terry Heaton was a catalyst for this event and his knowledge of both the mainstream media and the blogosphere is incredible. He is one of the few people I have met that truly understands both sides and the changes that are taking place in the media world. His blog is worth a subscription and a trip through his archives can be very educational.

Thanks WJTV !

WJTV-TV in Jackson has graciously agreed to serve as host for a blogger meet-up at 11 o’clock a.m. on Saturday, May 5th. Refreshments will be served and everyone who attends will get the hottest in channel 12 swag, including a T-shirt and a cool mousepad (if the printer can get them there in time).

This is a social event, so come prepared to meet and make new friends. If you know of a local blogger who’s not on the list here, please let me know or feel free to invite them, too. We’d like to meet everybody.

My name is Terry Heaton, and I’ve been blogging since 2002. I’ve participated in blogger meet-ups both globally and at the local level in several communities, including San Francisco, Nashville, Raleigh and Dallas. I helped WKRN-TV in Nashville build “Nashville is Talking,” a beloved aggregator site of the local blogosphere there. That station also runs an aggregator of political blogs in the state of Tennessee called “Volunteer Voters.”

WJTV-TV is interested in getting to know bloggers in the area, and we thought this would be a good way to get started. Again, this is a social event; there’s no agenda for the station other than helping facilitate this meet-up. We recognize the significance of the personal media revolution, and we want to listen to what you’re saying. We think this is a good way to start.

News Channel 12 anchors Byron Brown and Linda Allen will be there, along with Chief Meteorologist Tony Mastro. So come by, say hello, and get your picture taken at the anchor desk.

Please use the RSVP function of this Evite to let us know if you’re coming. We want to make sure we have enough food for everybody.

I wonder if I read everyone one of them I could quit my day job and just Make Money Online?

I am working 2 days this week and then I will be off until next Tues. I would like to think I will relax and work on some of my pet projects, but, I am sure the “Honey Do’s” will capture a lot of my time.

Just a few of my computer projects I have going.

I am still working on CybersMusic with my brother Mike.

Started another site with a friend called Blog Snare

Working on my CAADD @ CyberCoded.net Blog

Trying to update my old CyberCoded.com website, and contemplating moving some of the code to PHP from ASP, which should be fun for me.

I really need to put a new hard drive in my home PC.

Yep, I got enough to keep me busy for a few days, along with picking up leaves, hanging pictures, changing oil, yadda yadda yadda…..
