Ch Ch Ch Ch Changes...

Well, we finally got halfway transferred over to b5media, and now The Beauty Blog is officially eBeautyDaily! That was quite the stressful move, even from my perspective, as nothing but a blogger. I cannot imagine what the honchos were really going through. I did get a bit of an inside peek by working with the developer on troubleshooting some issues, lucky me! So please come by and see me there, you can send your beauty questions and comments to christina@b5media.com as well.

Weblog Network b5media LLC Announces Merger with About Weblogs

 

Shai Coggins explained that the deal enables the networks and theirbloggers to benefit from each other’s strengths and strategies.

“This merger is like a marriage in the world of bloggingnetworks,” said Coggins. “b5media and About Weblogs arecoming together like two people with different strengths, personalitiesand opportunities, but with very similar visions and goals. We need these similarities and differences to make a good partnership. And, Ibelieve that we’re a great fit. I’m definitely looking forward to working with Jeremy, Darren, Duncan, and the rest of thewonderful b5 team.”

Duncan Riley of b5media explained that the full integration of all the About Weblogs blogs would take a number of weeks.

“As with any merger there are a number of technical issues tosort out.However, we would expect that all blogs would be fully integrated into b5media by the end of November”.

b5media Weds AboutWeblogs :)

Well, it is finally official--we are joining the b5media network! Ooh, I hate to keep a secret--especially one that is so exciting to me.

I remember back in July, when I came on to AboutWeblogs,I was so nervous about actually writing a blog that someone mightactually see (LOL). Well I have stepped in it now! My hubby thinks I amscared of success, and he is right. I am shaking in my Pink Wellies, but unbelievably excited to be working with the geniuses (in my mind anyway) at b5.

Shai keeps talking about this merger in relation to a courtship andmarriage--there is something kinda sexy about that for sure. Maybe thatis why we are so excited! :)

 

So many things so little time

I have moved the Superbugwiki Discussion Group over to the MRSA Resources Forum today. These things take such a massive amount of time--but I always learn so much from trying to transfer a MySql database. So all is well now. Hallelujah :)
