Now, that is what I call a blog day!
Wow – I gotta say the BCL team knows how to have a blog day… In one day the team managed to post 23 meaty blogs on a whole range of topics… and I know that many entries got ½ done that will post out over the next week or so. No doubt great search engine bait for years to come. I’d love to hear your feedback…is a blog day a good idea? What was your favorite post?
