Lately I've been getting a great education on different blogging tools. I started with a blog for my previous agency, then established my own personal account both here on blogger. Then, when I joined Orange Element, I started a blog on Squarespace.
Well, Squarespace hasn't been working out because it doesn't seem to perform well in search--and search is crucial for us as a design and visual communications firm that needs to be able to be found by qualified prospects.
So, now I'm working on a version of Wordpress.org for Orange Element, which you can find here: www.orange-blog.com. It's still in development and we're working on getting the bugs out, but I invite you to go check it out if you're reading this....
More later!

Catching Up
Hi all - Just checkin' in.
Have you been following me on Orange Element's blog lately? If not, you should be - I think it's shaping up to be a pretty good one. We cover all types of things - fun shop stuff, design and communications news, insights, from Maryland and beyond.
I'm just sitting here watching American Idol Gives Back - a pretty amazing show. Although my wife and I give to a bunch of charities (and the homeless in Baltimore City), we were definitely compelled to give. I hope you'll do the same. All you have to do is click: http://www.americanidol.com/idolgivesback/howtodonate/.
I'm really excited because tomorrow is the Advertising Association of Baltimore's Addy Awards show. It's where the best and brightest of the Maryland advertising / design / communications / marketing come together to celebrate great work. Orange Element is slated to receive 5 awards tomorrow. I'll post an update on Friday on Orange Element's blog. Check it out then.
Oh, and have you been following me on Twitter? It's a great new social media tool that is a microblog of sorts. It's really quick (less than 140 characters) updates that let everyone know "what's up." You can find my Twitter site here: http://twitter.com/GarretOhm
Oh, and here's a great picture of my dog:
More later.
