Of my energy, that is. In case you haven’t noticed, it’s been one week since I’ve updated my blog which–compared to my usual activity–is far longer than I like to go. The next few weeks are almost guaranteed to be a little tougher than usual, but I’ll do my best to keep updating with some regular frequency. Once the summer finally arrives, I’m planning on rolling out a redesign and lots of fun new things, so you can look forward to that as well.

In other words, bear with me. I’m going to need lots of motivation over the next month and a half or so!

In addition, I’m on the look out for social media professionals who might be interested in helping me out with a quick interview via phone, e-mail or in person. This semester I’m completing my first honors capstone, for communications, focusing on social media and its impact on politics, social movements and the traditional news media. Are you a thought leader in this industry? Are you a thought leader in any of those industries? Let me know! I’d love to talk to you and gain some more insight as I work to complete the project.

The “deliverable” for this product will actually be in the form of a Web site. Because I’m titling the project “The Social Media Revolution,” the site will be hosted at SocMediaRev.com–not the easiest to say, but it’s the best I could snag; after all, “social media”-related domains are quite the hot commodity nowadays. Feel free to check out the site as you like, but keep in mind that right now, it’s simply a shell, and over the coming weeks it will be very much a work in progress. Please don’t judge! And of course, rest assured I’ll be blabbing all over the place once it’s finally finished.

Anyway, as always, thanks so much to my friends–and those of you I don’t know–reading my content here on this blog. And thanks so much to all my Twitter friends as well, who keep me motivated to stay active there, even if I can’t quite commit the time to posting blog entries as often as I’d like! More to come soon.

This week seems busy, but I’ve really got to brace myself for next week. For a quick comparison, here’s this week’s calendar:

And here’s my calendar for next week (already!):

Should be interesting to see how much sleep I get between school, two exams, that massive purple mess of events out and about in D.C., and writing. I promise I won’t abandon you, blog.
