More networking?! Yes my friends… more networking.  Unfortunately for you anti-socials out there, contacts don’t generally fall out of the sky.  And we’ve talked about putting yourself out there and NetWORKing… but where are you going?  Where are these connections being made these days?  The answers might surprise you.

So, you’re a big bad blogger now?  Well good for you!  Sort of… Hey, people are always looking for ways to improve. For all I know, you’re perfect and you’ve already enacted all of these tips I’m about to share.  If that’s the case, you’re just going to force me to make another list folks.  And if you haven’t noticed from any past posts… like: here, here, and here.  I like my lists.

If you’re looking for a website that epitomizes the phrase “Custom Design”, look no further than the website we designed for Brickkicker.  All of the functionality on this site was done with custom code.  The site started as a corporate brochure.  With the help of the DotNetNuke (DNN) user system and a series of DNN Modules, the site was completely customized from top to bottom.
