When Ryan Healy and I started our first blog, Employee Evolution, we had no clue that 6 months later we would be starting a company with Penelope Trunk. Nor could we have imagined that a year after that we'd be sitting in our Madison headquarters, working with a stellar team, continuously building what we feel has become the most kick-ass community of bloggers on the web.
I'm certain that if both of us were asked what had the singl

That's wicked sweet Ryan. This one is sure to make some noise.

Great contest — I'm definitely going to enter!

one question: Is almost 33 too old to post a profile on this site? I'm a Gen X/Gen Y cusper and I'm never sure.
If it's not too old, then count me the heck in!!!

South By! You guys better bring your A game. I am!

This is the perfect blog post to get my blog up and running again. Too many blogs, so little time.

@Ryan Paugh
So basically what you're saying is I don't qualify for this contest?

This is an amazing opportunity and pretty much the best prize I can think of! :)

Affected or influenced, but not impacted ;-) Impact is a noun, never a verb.

Nice change on changed :-)

I haven't blogged enough yet to enter this, or really read enough blogs, but I'm working on it. Maybe I'll see what I can come up with.
I also wanted to say good call, Rufus. I actually just wrote a blog about impact and other misunderstood and misused buzzwords.
@Ben: Maybe you could write about how you want blogging to impact your life ... ?
I think that's a perfectly relevant submission.
And let's face it, many of us haven't experienced something groundbreaking via blogging. Get creative. If you blog, I'm totally positive that you have an interesting story to share.

I'm looking forward to reading people's entries! Can you post all of them, or just the winner and runners-up?

@Rufus That's not true. Your bowels can be impacted. ;)

@Holly I was thinking that as I was writing, but that is actually an adjective modifying the noun bowels (I'm cringing at the thought of impacting bowels as a verb.... ooooo, ouch :-) )
