I've Wanted to Be An SOB for a While. And Now I Am!

Seriously. Liz Strauss just called me an SOB. And I have the badge to prove it. (See official-looking pink badge on side of post.)

Wait. It's not the kind of SOB you think. Besides, I'm a woman so that would be physically impossible. 

This SOB is short for Successful and Outstanding Blogger. Liz, who has been called "the most influential relational blogger on the Internet," and was also named one of the 50 Most Powerful and Influential Women of Social Media, started the SOB club as a fun way to gather together bloggers who, in her words, "take the conversation to their readers, contribute great ideas, challenge us, make us better and make our businesses stronger."

I am honored and humbled to join this amazing group of bloggers. Visit Liz's website and you'll find an A-Z Directory with the names of a bunch of very cool bloggers who are doing "successful and outstanding things." Actually I'm a little in awe of this company I'm keeping. 

Be sure when you visit Liz's site to read more about SOBCon, her incredible biz school for bloggers, in Chicago next year, starting on April 30. It's the most talked about blogging conference in the world of social media.

Thanks, Liz, for the recognition! I'll do my best to live up to it.

Becky,

What a coincidence! I just stopped by your blog recently on your "Brag Basket" day. What a cool idea.

Thanks for the kind words. I've certainly learned from impressive bloggers like you.
