The elementary school project and blog Flat Stanley in Holland was selected for the Hardin-Jefferson Technology Showcase. My niece Avery Nolte (9) presented the blog to parents, staff and students. Because of the enthusiasm from Avery, her fourth grade class and her teacher Mrs. Long, the Flat Stanley page has more than 800 views, with 100+ coming from Sour Lake, Texas this week.

Email interviewed the About.Me Community Manager Laura Gluhanich. In my prep, found a New York Times article on About.Me from April 5. Why is About.Me so lava hot? See my article: "Really, it's not you. It's about.me."

On Saturday, the above Search Cowboy article was plucked from all the social media news as a 'top story' by Social Media Moguls Daily News on Twitter by @SocialMediaHaus with 31,000+ followers.

Before the about.me article on Search Cowboys was published on Friday, I tried to use all the tips to pimp my page. Ummm...which looks a lot like Laura's page above now that I see them together. In just 2 weeks, 217 views on the about.me/bigfatwriter one-page business card website.
