Hep:

Seminar was great. The dog barking in the background needed a muzzle, but other than that, good job!

Thanks Tom, I hope that it was a follow up to the Blogging Article. I’m not sure who’s dog it was, I know my “Co-Producer” Jake (Golden Retriever) knows to keep it down when the “On Air” light is on. Also, great job on the AFD Web Exclusive for Writing Press Releases!

Hello Robin,

I enjoyed the seminar and the contributors have some good tips I’d like to pursue.

Regarding your discussion on photos, I’ve used istockphoto.com and found their service excellent. You purchase credits as you need them (very inexpensive) and have access to a database of royalty free photos.
