New Media, New Idea…”Not For Nothin”. January 23, 2007

Reviewing my regular workload and juggling the new family obligations while in the midst of embarking on this Internet venture, caused me to occasionally reminisce about my early days in a small Italian pasta restaurant. The owner, Tony, always used to say, “Hey Gary, Not for Nothin”……., in that unmistakable Staten Island power talk of his, and it was almost always in the vein of: ‘Do you know what you’re doing?’ (I was the guy trying to make the linguine pasta salad, ….and pulled the vermicelli from the storage bin).

Those days are many years since gone by…..but sometimes, as I look at all of the new technology and terminology in this New Media world, and how much there is to learn and then structure the pieces into a workable, viable business that I can manage from a keyboard…..AAaiiigh!…..well, for certain, now I have spaghetti, linguine, vermicelli, fusilli and readers and page views, and trackbacks, and blogs, and plogs, and vlogs……

….but, I am clear about one thing. I know what I’m doing, and It’s Not for Nothin!
