Don’t ask me why, but as a freshman in college I took calculus as an elective.  It wasn’t required and had nothing to do with my major (history) so it must have been pure stubbornness on my part. Even though I had optimal conditions for learning the subject; a class of only six students and a professor that had been a NOAA mathematician I never really understood why I got the answers that I got. I was immensely grateful that for the most part they were correct. That’s what this last week has reminded me of as I try to wrap my head around inbound internet marketing. I can see that it works but I’d never get there on my own. That’s pretty much all I’ve been doing this week – even letting a few things slide in favor of it so that I don’t compound the problem.  I’m determined to figure it out sufficiently to raise my business presence on the web to an acceptable level!

Winter has set in with a vengeance which is helping to keep me glued to the computer.  Part of my web time has been getting more sea glass jewelry posted on etsy and revamping how I describe and keyword them – that seems to be improving things so the next thing will be to give the photography side of things the same type of makeover. I hate rework but sometimes it’s necessary and in this constantly changing world I don’t see how you can avoid it and still be effective.

On a fun note, I met the people that found my Thanksgiving message in a bottle who were delightful – is it synchronicity or is there a correlation between the type of people that pick up bottle messages and the ones that send them?
