Active Rain and Weight Gain

I decided not to go for a walk after work today. Instead, I'm blogging and checking in on other social medias--a moment or two on Facebook, a tweet here and there, before you know it an hour passes by. Balance can be a precarious thing.

I consider my time on Active Rain as marketing and lead generation time. I must admit it quickly became in integral part of my day. Today as I typed ads for corporate newspaper advertising I found myself wanting to add photos and upload the ad myself. Instead, it is sent to the receptionist who will send it off to the person in charge of corporate advertising and it will appear next weekend...yes, next weekend and beyond. Seems like a very long lead time for someone who has grown accustomed to the instant gratification and market saturation of Active Rain, and the plethora of sites that upload listings at the speed of light.

So maybe there is time to squeeze in a walk and let the World Wide Web work its magic while my feet are walking. No one can take a walk for me, it is something I must do myself or pay the price. However, I can let Google and Active Rain do my "work" for me while I sneak out for some fresh ocean air and a hike along the Palos Verdes bluffs.

I'm liking this partnership!
