Thanks to Jennifer Wagner for the lovely graphic I received in email yesterday reminding me about CyberCompliment Day. It’s almost like a Day of Thanksgiving when you think about it.

Thinking back to my start in blogging I have to really give thanks to Ed Warkentin. I told him this in email the other day, but I don’t think I would be sitting here this morning, pecking away on my keyboard if it wasn’t for his patience in answering my questions on our evening DC tour last July. During our Summer Leadership Conference I can honestly say I was very ‘green’ when it came to blogging and podcasting. He set me in the right direction for resources to get the job done.

I’d also like to say thanks to Danielle Abernethy. She’s becomes such a valued friend over being a colleague of mine. Her enthusiasm for tech ed is contagious and I’m very lucky to have been a part of her DEN. She’s always willing to lend a hand or do a workshop/professional development. Thanks for being you Danielle!

I’m going to throw thanks to a group of people over at Discovery for allowing me to be the Florida DEN blogmaster with Debbie Bohanon. Steve, Scott, Jannita, Coni, Lance, Betsy and Hall thanks for the support you’ve given us as we try to grow our DEN community stronger.

I’m sure I’m forgetting others, but I’m running out of time before I have to go to work. I will get any more I know I have forgotten when I get home. But lastly I have to give a HUGE cybercompliment to my wife. After almost 13 years together, she’s seen me go through online gaming addiction, playing hockey addiction and now blogging addiction. I’d like to thank you for being you, being an awesome mother and somehow putting up with me all these years I Love You!

Seeking the Wisdom of the Ages…

Tom.
