  Tweet What does this picture have to do with the topic of this post? I am not sure yet. But I will tell you what I was thinking about. I just came back from Delaware, visiting Maya, one of the other founders of TwitterQueens. On the long car ride home, I had the same issue [...]

  More of you

  Posted on August 23, 2009 by Diane in 5 life
  Tweet

  Tweet I had to share this, because I think the next new thing will not be more of the same. I think it will be a leap into a different way to interact through the online medium, something more satisfying to the participants. There is no perfect online discourse. It reminds me of when you [...]

  Tweet I am in San Francisco, and it is just wonderful. I am here for RE BarCamp San Francisco and Inman Connect, and aside from some- well, let’s call it jet lag for want of a better word, I am excited and happy. Yesterday was the first day of the two-pronged (un)/conference. At Trulia Headquarters, [...]

  Tweet One of the first stories I heard from RE/MAX Prestige’s team coach went like this: There was a teacher. One day he was standing in front of his class, and pulled a huge jar from under the counter. He began to fill it with large stones. When he had piled every stone into the [...]

  When “Happy Birthday is a Victory Song”

  Posted on July 15, 2009 by Diane in 5 life, living
  Tweet

  Tweet There are advertisements asking for your time and money all over the place: in the newspapers, on television. After a while, you just shut down. As an example, on Facebook I belong to 168 groups- some of them business-oriented, but many of a giving nature. The other day, I saw a post from my [...]

  Barbie loves Ken

  Posted on July 13, 2009 by Diane in 5 life
  Tweet

  Tweet I was always the awkward one in school- like in the Ting Ting’s song, I was always “the last chick standing up against the wall.” So, good enough. Lately, though, I have been feeling more in the loop. I mean, after all, I AM on twitter and have that information live-streaming at me day [...]

  Shelving the Shelf Life

  Posted on July 7, 2009 by Diane in 5 life, twitter
  Tweet

  Tweet Today I will have posted my 25,000 tweet on twitter. I’m not that much of a numbers gal. I am very competive with myself and a few other people who just seem to press that button, but that’s a different type of measuring. To me, though, this number indicates something bigger. It means that [...]

  You’ve come a long way, Baby, but your coffee still sucks…

  Tweet I was working on another post when I read a post by my friend Pat Williams. At the same time, she challenged me: I LOVE that her blog is named The Sticky Floor. At least as much as a glass ceiling exists, there is that sticky kitchen floor that holds women by the soles [...]

  Here, kitty, kitty, kitty- thoughts on the Cougar Phenomenon

  Tweet How old am I? It depends on which site you check me out on, because I like to mix it up. Some places I am 39. some 42, some the ripe old age of 43. I usually use the JackBenny 39 because as long as I am over 18 or 21, that’s all the [...]

  Michael Jackson Tribute

  Posted on July 1, 2009 by heyamaretto in 3 inspiration, 5 life, stories
  Tweet

  Tweet Today I saw a new video released by the prisoners who do synchronized dancing as an alternative to other exercise. I remember when I saw the first video, I was blown away. I mean, my friend Lesley Lambert can dance- really dance- but dancing appears to be genetically linked to direction in me- both [...]
