Excellent and accurate points, across the board.

I wanted to write this post more for other people than for myself. I’m consistently critical of groups and people in the Social Media field that do things I don’t agree with, so I felt it was “necessary” for me to offer an opportunity for people to say what they feel about me doing something that THEY might not like.

Obviously, nobody took advantage of that opportunity, which means that a) They don’t care about the topic, b) They care, but don’t have anything to say in public about it, or c) They just don’t read my blog at all.

All I DO know is that I feel better today than I felt yesterday, and I felt better yesterday than I did the day before… And that’s the bottom line, ’cause Stone Cold said so! :D

for the record, i think the decisions you made, the thoughtful list you composed, and your general take away from the situation has been arrived at from a position of wisdom. and not to get all AA on your ass, but you know – that all-important wisdom it takes to know the things that you cannot change. and i think it goes without saying that you, as awesome as you are, cannot change an entire industry and its general MO – but that you CAN change the number of ducats in your pocket, that belong there because they were ducats that you EARNED for WORK that you DELIVERED.

as for revisionist history, to that i say – what isn’t revisionist history? everything that happens after something, changes what happened before – due to context. plain and simple. the question therefore is whether that change is good, or that change is bad. in this particular situation, the change is in your pocket – further into the black as opposed to further towards red, and i’m not sure how that could be bad in this context.

really i could sum this up in three words: GOOD.FOR.YOU.

killer crushin’ as always.
