    Networking Mistake Myopia
    If you are nearsighted you know that without glasses or improvement in the overall health of eyes, seeing in the distance is blurred.

    Podcasting vs. Blogging
    The US Navy blogs. Larry Kudlow of CNBC blogs. I'd say "everybody and their brother" except (1) it's a cliche and (2) it may be grammatically inaccurate.
