“Tapped Out”
It’s the start of the silly season.
Kids back to school. Tradeshow schedules ramp up. Product launches. And (thankfully) a robust newbiz pipeline that includes some of the biggest opportunities ever.
Meanwhile, your rabidly partisan blogger can’t help but pay close attention to the upcoming presidential election.
I’m super busy, and distracted at all levels, personally and professionally.
I’m tapped out. It happens. (And usually when I write a post about “needing a break,” I seem to come up with 5 new blog posts. I hope that that same magic happens with today’s admission.)
Don’t unsubscribe, gang, I’ll be back before you know it. I just need a small break from worrying about getting a new blog post up every couple of days!

Todd, appreciate you taking a break so this is a non urgent question: I notice you dont have a message Todd on your Twitter – is there a reason for that? anyway what i was going to message you about was your opinion on where crisis communciation is heading. Clearly, it has changed because of the technology that enables us to communicate rapdily. what do you think this means for PR agencies who are involved in that stream of work? interested in your opinion, after your break.
Take your time.
My PR students and I will be waiting patiently for you to come back and we’ll be using this break to catch up on your older posts.
I’m experiencing the “can’t help but pay close attention to the upcoming presidential election” thing too.
It’s addictive. Have you seen the 2006 Alaska Governor’s election debate?
Come back soon.
I am glad you are taking a break because I was awed by your social media presence and ability to manage your bricks and mortar operation and fulfill your personal life all at the same time. (I am no less awed, by the way, that you’re switching focus to other priorities for a wee bit.)
Yes, at some point, social media responsibilities must take a backseat to other interests and responsibilities. (Friends, family, clients, employees, your community, health, presidential candidates and other face-to-face-real-time essentials.)
And that’s something everyone needs to keep in mind. You set a great example, Todd.
