What do you think the concept of "public face" "private face"? We have a blog and a design site that was built on our personal brand. As we grow our 'professional' design side I was wondering if I should or should not scale back the more 'personal' blog. As you can see from our header (http://www.hopandjaunt.com) the main brand is built around the two of us so we can either be ourselves 100% or figure out a more managed "public" persona and stick to that...any opinions?

In Alyson;s post (the OP), she has a lot of different options on how to approach her potential clients, however if she was in health care or law, the choice would be made for her. Unfortunately being yourself in some of those industries just doesn't work.

As someone who in a position to chose vendors, part of my selection criteria is the vendor's personality. I have turned away flashy "professional" vendors for more DYI-like shops because I felt our work styles more compatible. Right now, your site says something about your personality and attracts a certain type to your business, changing it might bring difficult clients who are not respectful of your personality and scare away those clients who are. My only suggestion is perhaps to make overt the impact your travels have on your design and creativity.

I have a blog entry that has 2500 words, mainly from the 5 examples supporting my point. Do you think it's much better to split it into separate entries, with one entry summing up those 5 examples so that the entry isn't too long?

BTW, as a counterpoint to what mark has said, if you don't have a powerful site in google's eyes (which is most of us), then the chance of google or any search engine indexing more than 2/5 posts or so could be remote. Keep that in mind. I don't know what your site is though.

Hey, guys. I have a question for you. I am writing a research paper on the security risks of cloud computing and possible solutions that will reduce or eliminate these risks. Does anybody know of any good sources that I might can use for this paper?

This might help out a lot: MoreThis might help out a lot: http://www.cloudsecurityalliance.org/. Specifically, there is a whitepaper about cloud security at http://www.cloudsecurityalliance.org/csaguide.pdf. You can also see Amazon's whitepaper about HIPAA regulations here: http://awsmedia.s3.amazonaws.com/AWS_HIPAA_Whitepaper_Final.pdf. And Microsoft has a paper on cloud security here: http://www.globalfoundationservices.com/security/documents/SecuringtheMS.... (I literally was just doing research on this in the beginning of the week). Good luck.

You can shape us as leaders: One of the most important ways managers can work with Gen Y is by sharing their stories, and letting us learn from your accomplishments and struggles. By doing this, our managers can shape us to be excellent leaders.
