Are you in the Brag Basket?

By Small Biz Survival

Each Friday, I open the brag basket as a fun place to brag or promote yourself and your projects.

Last week, Shashi bragged on attending the Small Business Technology Summit. Chel bragged on Ed Roberts for being such a neat guy. An anonymous Wayne dropped in a commercial, too. Thanks, Shashi, Chel, and Wayne for bragging.

Fridays are doubly special. We are also celebrating Frozen Pea Friday for Susan Reynolds. I encourage you to join me and donate the cost of a bag of frozen peas (or more) to cancer-fighting research at the Frozen Pea Fund. Then come brag about it!

Regular brags on any topic are still welcome!

You can brag on a friend, your own project, yourself, others, anything! You don’t need special permission or anything. Just leave a comment right here, or DM beckymccray on Twitter. There’s no deadline, so you can brag anytime during the week, and I’ll open a fresh Brag Basket each Friday.

    Becky,

    I look forward to meeting you at SXSW. Thanks. About famous I am not sure but the message I hope to get across is help others to help yourself and achieve your dreams in steps.

    Shashi
