Blogathon Workstation, 5:00 AM

As I planned for this blogathon, I decided to go with a theme. Since I was also preparing for a certification, I started out with the theme of business analysis and certification topics. But that by itself, I found, would end up being boring, and would appeal to very few.

Meanwhile, when I chose to blog for the Canadian Hard of Hearing Association and contacted them as well as some members of the Hearing Loss Association of America, they were very supportive of the idea and offered to help me with it as well with guest posts, information etc. Seeing the interest received from them and given that part of my blogging effort is also to raise awareness of the needs of hard of hearing, I had decided that the topics should be divided between the two.

The last stretch has been the hardest to focus on a theme, especially when it came to some dry areas. So I decided to simply have fun, and write about things that came to my mind during this last leg.

Fundraising:

I didn’t really set myself any goals this year with respect to fund raising as I wasn’t sure.

Connections:
One of the biggest gains from this exercise was the connections I was able to make. The local Vancouver Bloggers were awesome as usual, but what was amazing was the connections I made and the support I received from people I haven’t met in person yet, but who have been awfully kind to do features and guest posts for me. More about the guest posts in my next post.
