Biz Networking - Esti Peshin’s Blog

Originally, I wanted to dedicate this post to the amazing world of dog’s networking. 

However, sitting in a flight to Geneva, en route to a ski vacation, I found it difficult to concentrate on a witty and charming piece. I thought I’d utilize this opportunity to give you a sense of how it came about that I started blogging…  

I am not what you’d call an “early adaptor” of technology. I seldom read on-line papers, believing a paper should literally be made out of paper, I still own a VCR, and do not own a DVD, and I have only recently been introduced to the exciting world of blogging.  I must give credit where credit’s due.

If it weren’t for Tsahar Rotem, the “Content Man”, who taught me the ropes of blogging, you would have been reading these words right now. Tsahar is a true believer in the power of words, and an expert in promoting sites via wise content management. He practices what he preaches in his excellent blog contentman.wordpress.com. Hebrew readers might want to check it out.   

I previously wondered what blogging and content management have to do with business. Well, a blog might be perceived as another mode of self expression. However, Tsahar taught me that a well written blog focusing on articles in a specific area may assist its owner in promoting and positioning himself as a legitimate expert in area. Tsahar himself is a great example; he gained his reputation as one of the main content management experts in Israel, and drew a lot of attention using his well written blog.

OK, seat belts on, Chamonix here we come…

Note: This post was written on Mar-4, en route to a ski vacation at Chamonix. Unfortunately, due to connectivity problems, I only got a chance to post it now. BTW, the vacation is great, and I will be sure to write a post or two about it.
