Last weekend I visited The Body in The Bog for the first time since it re-opened.  My good friend Zach Reinhold and I had a really nice visit with John O&#8217;Mara about beer and about how he got The Body In The Bog back.
After the weekend I was thinking about how great it would be [...]]]></description>

I recognize that many have already seen this video and thanks go to Bryan Harley for getting the full thing uploaded.  I had the chance to watch the full video this week.  If you haven&#8217;t seen this documentary its worth taking a look at.  I had posted a much shorter clip in a previous post [...]]]></description>

Dear MindHub,
Fresno is calling you to once again serve your community as the best place for community conversation.  Our area is in dire need of a better space to discuss our ideas, knowledge and hopes as well as share our concerns and skepticism.  Today, a group of friends and I who have used [...]]]></description>

Yesterday, I began a small series of posts on community conversation.  If you missed my first blog post on the topic you can see it here.  Today, I want to write about Twitter and why in my opinion, it is not the best place for healthy community conversation.
Most of my  friends and family don&#8217;t understand [...]]]></description>

For the past several months, some friends and I have been thinking about the way our community communicates.  We have been trying to re-imagine ways to share knowledge, ideas and concerns about our community.  We all recognize that our community has many challenges, but our challenges are matched with incredible potential.
In reflecting about  community conversation, [...]]]></description>

Last week KSEE 24 began running spots that highlight Fresno.  Truly the commercial seems to be designed to highlight the entire Central Valley region.  The spots feature some prominent leaders in the community and use the Fresno Brand Platform as a template for the message.
&#8220;We Are Fresno&#8221;  is the message that you are left with [...]]]></description>

I wanted to write one final entry about our identity as a community.  Well, at least one final entry for 2009.
Today, The Fresno Bee published an article about the chatter in the past two weeks about the Fresno image and brand platform.  You can read the article here. I was interviewed for the article and [...]]]></description>

Many have asked me lately why all of the sudden I have become a defender of Fresno.  Truth is, I have been a Fresno apologist for a while.  Fresno is my home.  It is where I grew up and I live here by choice.
I have traveled too.  In fact, those who know me well may [...]]]></description>

Looks like once again, Fresno is taking a kick to the gut on a national scene.  The article in USA Today today seems to be more unbalanced and unfair than normal. You can read the story here. The pictures alone tell the story in my opinion.  I have posted the pictures from the hard print [...]]]></description>
