One of the key points that Marshall Goldsmith makes in What Got You Here Won’t Get You There
So, in that spirit, I have to apologize to people who’ve made (or tried to make) comments on this site for the past few months; I discovered last night that I’d done something to my WordPress configuration which was sending comment notifications into the ether (actually they were probably spamming some unknown user sharing the same hosting provider), and therefore, any comments from “new” people were stuck waiting for approval, and I wasn’t seeing comments from “old” people, either.
I think I fixed everything up, but for those of you who may wonder what’s been of interest to my readership recently, I’ll call out the “lost” commentors and comments here:
- Way back in November, Ed Costello weighed in on my Ubuntu problems (fortunately, that machine’s no longer an issue for me).
- Mike Lipsie commented about ×œ×§×•× ×“×œ and its underlying conjugation.
- November 30th’s posting on Free Rice brought out comments from Sacha Chua and Barbara Finkelstein, and I’ve responded in the comments to that post.
- In mid-December, David Preston taunted me because he got his XO long before I did. But now I’ve got mine, so I don’t care.
- Henry Bankhead at the Los Gatos Library explained how to get to their catalog via Worldcat.
- Turbo Todd Watson recommended I read the book version of Charlie Wilson’s War
- Marshall Goldsmith noticed my comments on his book.
- Cathleen Rittereiser offered me help in Getting Nothing Done. But I’m afraid I’m going to have to go back to Getting Things Done
- My posts [1] and [2] on Twitter brought out comments from Connie Reece, Ed Costello, Sacha Chua, and Len Edgerly.
- I was not alone in being underwhelmed by Gentlemen of the Road
- Richard Schwartz is trying to incite me to play a game.
- And finally, Xavier Verges and Ed Costello wish they had their XOs now thatI got mine.
Summarizing all those comments was a lot of work, but fun — maybe I’ll do it again some day.
