Questions, Feedback, etc.

I want to answer questions from listeners on the show. If you have a question or even if you have a general subject you’d like me to talk about, please let me know by e-mailing me. You can even remain anonymous, if you want. Just be sure to tell me.

Listener Spotlight

If you manage at least one generally family friendly community with at least 10,000 posts and you have headphones, a mic, Skype and high speed, please e-mail me. You only need to e-mail once because I add any possible guests into a pool indefinitely. Just because you e-mail doesn’t mean you’ll be brought on, but I appreciate you putting your name into the hat and I look forward to speaking with you.

Thank you for listening.

Edit: I just realized that this show was posted in the wrong category, so it may not have automatically displayed for podcast subscribers. Sorry for the confusion.

    Good show Patrick. Good you mention about backing up, it’s so important yet overlooked too often.
