The Ho‘ohana Community Bulletin Board
What’s new and exciting in the Ho‘ohana Online Community?
So glad you asked!
Freshest Update:
Phil Gerbyshak of our Ho‘ohana Online Community has published his first book!
Click in here for your howto order 10 Ways to Make It Great! Believe me, I know what a HUGE milestone it is to publish your very first book, so do congratulate Phil. The best way to do so? Order his book! I was able to get a sneak preview, and you will love the way it helps you explore more about your own Ho‘ohana.
Update: You can read some back-story about Phil and his book-writing journey in an interview he did with Troy Worman at Orbit Now! --- and --- you can read another ringing endorsement by Lisa Haneberg at Management Craft.
Our value of the month is:
Lokomaika‘i, the Hawaiian value of Giving and Generosity. Read more in this month’s Talking Story essay:
Blog-tipping Day:
Now this is a great idea I have to get on board with, just like Phil (for Simplicity), Stacy (for Write Well Me), Lisa (generous deviation) and Terry (for Here We Are. Now What?) have done. Last month, Greg Balanko-Dickson introduced me to the idea when he tipped me- it was a fabulous surprise to get! This month, I notice that Dwayne got tipped!
As I commented here for Terry, I have to be more proactive about it though, and go for a day earlier than the first of the month tradition that has been started. Meanwhile, a different recognition here for the Bulletin Board: A great big MAHALO to those who had so generously added their voices to Talking Story in the past month of June with their comments and trackbacks:

Conference News
Any chance you will be in Boston in early September?
Chris Brogan is sharing his announcement of Podcamp, a free "unconference" where the attendees are also the experts. Sessions get organized on the fly the morning of the event, and there are many ways to participate: you can hold a 30 minute session or demo, a 5 minute lightning talk, or participate in a panel discussion. Join an informal round table talk, or participate in podcasting demos and actual live podcasts!
Who is this for? According to Chris:
Podcamp is for people interested in new media. Bloggers, podcasters, vloggers are who the conference serves best. If you're interested in doing something with new media, you'll want to attend. Are you a school or library wondering how to incorporate podcasting into projects and community events? Are you a corporation wondering why you should be involved? Are you a venture group thinking about whether to invest in this new media space? You'll soon learn.
For more details, click in here: Podcamp Boston September 9-10, 2006
Add your details in the comments for me, or trackback this post with an announcement on your own blog or website, and I’ll post it. I’ll track its dating: all announcements will remain for about a month’s time.
Much aloha,
Rosa

Aloha Easton, it's good to meet you! Your Blog-tipping idea is fabulous - very lokomaika'i (generous, and of good heart), and I have indeed marked on my calendar for the last day of each month to get a jump on it!
Blogtipping Eve... I like that :-)
Much aloha to you,
Rosa
