A couple of years ago I met Monique Harris of @Children1stNV (she’s still adjusting to “The Twitter” couldn’t resist the Betty White) and when was enlightened to what @Children1stNV does as a mother who has 4 girls (don’t gasp you guys know we have 5 kids between us aka blended) I started thinking what if, what if one of my girls found themselves in this position (not that I haven’t tried to install the fear of me in them like my Mom did to me, feisty little mexican, or teach them right from wrong aka abstinence) where would they turn?

Did you know that on any given day there are over 300 unaccompanied homeless youth, in Clark County alone. Let your mind do the wandering . . .

In this video of Monique Harris from Southern Nevada Children First being interviewed by Mary Marriott of @JustAskMary and @TheAttitudeofMoney on their “Grattitude Attitude” you will learn about these children with children. No one can paint the picture like Monique, if your a parent like me you’ll see why this tweetup is a must attend event!

Lewis Howes spoke on “LinkedIn for Viral Campaigns”  and after listening to him I left the room with a new found respect for LinkedIn.  Lewis always, always, gives great content in his webinars,  and he gave all of us a gift for attending  his session.  The gift “LinkedIn Master Strategies – How to make a name for yourself, increase opportunities, and dominate your market on LinkedIn” You can get your own copy now for $19.95 and this isn’t an affiliate link (but Blog World is).  I refer back to it on a regular basis and think you will do the same after you get your copy.

Here are the Titles for the first 2 chapters:

1. The Power of Adding Key Words
2. What is your Status?  It’s a daily friend

One of the most valuable tips Lewis gave was to join Groups and participate in them.  As an open networker I accept all invitations to connect on LinkedIn, so let’s get connected.  Groups allow you the freedom of not having to know your potential connection’s email address.  That is only one powerful way participating in Groups will bring you benefits, Lewis gives other reasons in his ebook.

Here is another video I captured, sorry about the audio I was in the back of the room this year I will have a microphone for my camera!  I hope you plan on registering for BlogWorld 2010 the Early Bird Discount Code is EBIRD.
