I never cease to be amazed by the sunsets we get here in the midwest. I often find myself driving that direction at that time of day. I was a little too tired to post it last night. If you get tired of seeing them, let me know. I just love taking pictures of them though. Not sure what I’m …
Blog Lite
Two posts in the last 3 days. Wow. That’s light for the agriblogger. But then I did have to drive home from Lincoln, NE and went to St. Louis and back today for a meeting and to drop my Mac off for a check up. Plus there was the archiving of almost 1,000 photos I took last week and the …

Historic Haymarket

When you enter the area, you are met with aromas from our many restaurants and are visually overwhelmed by the beautiful restoration and artwork of the old warehouse district. You hear the sounds of people living, working, and enjoying life …
Sunny Day in Mid Mo
I’m not sure if this is called Claysville Creek but it’s a creek that runs right by Claysville, MO. It’s a beautiful day in mid MO so I got out on the Katy Trail today on my bike with my iPod cranking out some of this. My Blackberry Curve comes through to show how nice it looks. You can also …
ZimmComm New Media Training
This past week we did some new media training here at ZimmComm World Headquarters. My Mac looks great on a 42″ Plasma. John, Laura, Michelle, Cindy and Chelsea all watched as we went through the new version of WordPress and discussed posting policies and our new live video application.

The Growing Business of Blogs
Remember back almost 4 years ago when you first heard about new media (blogs and podcasts) being used in agriculture? You know where, right? Well that “fad” has certainly become much more mainstream than many thought it would. My favorite place to keep up with what’s going on in my new media world is eMarketer. They’ve got a new report …
