- That was a crazy week. Still getting the kinks ironed out in the new schedule. Posting is a priority. Trust me.
- This is ironic considering that I just told a new blogger that the number one thing to do when starting out is to “be consistent.”
- Osama is dead. While I’m sure many people have closure with the whole event, I’m still unsettled about celebrating a man’s death, no matter how wicked.
- Speaking of, want to know the first place I turned to get the news? You won’t have to guess long. Twitter. And so did many of you, apparently.
- What do you think about the news of Osama bin Laden being killed?
- The guy who live-tweeted the Osama raid and didn’t even know it.
- I’m off to Cultivate this week. Will any of you be there? We just got the details of how the event will go and I can tell you that I’ve never been a part of something like this before. Can’t wait to see all of you out there!
- Thanks to all of you who participated in the Communications and Technology track at Exponential. If you’re wondering, all of our notes and such from the different sessions can be found here on our Facebook group.
- In related news: Kem Meyer is becoming one of my favorite people. She leads with honesty and clarity. Her candor is refreshing and her expertise is world-class. Classy lady!
- That was a crazy game of poker.
- Rob Bell’s new book is worth checking out. You’ll be challenged, stretched and engaged at a different level the whole time. It’s worth the read (and possible subsequent theological fallout).
- We celebrated the Sabbath at Jordan Creek Family Church this past weekend. The pastor gave one of the most challenging sermons I’ve heard in years. Thanks, Heath.
- What’s the latest and greatest in your world, friends?

- Welcome to all my new readers! After shutting down my longest-running blog last week, I invited you all to join me here on JustinWise.net and I was pleased to see a lot of you make the transition. Huzzah!
- This blog will focus on social media research, blogging tips and tricks, productivity & entrepreneurship and, of course, what’s going on in my life. (The site does bear my name!)
- I cannot tell you how big of a weight has been lifted off my shoulders now that BeDeviant.com is no longer being updated. BeDeviant was good, but it ceased to be great. Are there any good-but-not-great projects in your life that need to hit the shelf? Need to be hung up so you can focus on making something truly great? What are they? Do you have the courage to post them here for the world to see?
- Speaking of transitions, I’m heading full-bore into a conference-palooza for the next month. Exponential > Cultivate > CAO Summit > Social Media Consultation. Here we go!
- What a great Easter weekend we had. For the first time in years, my brother, sister, mom and dad and I sat down for a family dinner. Just the five of us. My wife and little guy were in Omaha visiting family and my bro-in-law was working. Refreshing. What a great family I have!
- The whole fam got to spend Easter Sunday together as well. We went to services on Saturday evening. Sunday morning worship is overrated
- I failed a blind vodka taste taste.
- Kerry and I started Insanity last night. You know it’s going to be a challenging workout when the guy leading the sessions has to stop and take a breather. That ish is, in fact, insane.
- There’s nothing better than waking up on the Monday after a major church holiday being completely refreshed and renewed rather than exhausted and worn out.
- So, with that, what’s the latest and greatest in your world? Share!
