That's funny, I too just started this morning before work. I'd much rather be curled up safe at home reading than trying to navigate the snow this evening! So far I'm really enjoying the ... more...
I went to one of these in Madison and loved it! Definitely a great way to present information. more...
I use Google Reader and add all the blog subscriptions I have (more than 400, ugh) to different folders to denote priority and subject matter. I have folders labeled for work and for personal ... more...
Agreed! I actually just enjoy shopping my closet. This weekend, I found a J. Crew yellow belt that I bought at least a year ago and had never worn. I paired it with a black dress and a gray jacket ... more...
You'll hear this a lot, but definitely spend some money and time finding great basics. I have some really cute black dresses I've been able to dress up, dress down and wear for years with ... more...

Ugh, am I the only one that finds Chris Brogan incredibly annoying? more...
I don't have a problem with it. And as I understand Brazen Careerist, it's a place where companies and people who care about their careers can interact. I welcome the other perspective. more...
That's so funny, I do keep seeing this recipe around... must be the butter. :) more...
Hey Katelyn, I can send you my old cover letters if you want - just shoot me an email - moditeinfo@gmail.com. I've gotten every job I've ever applied for :) Happy to review as well. more...
Madison MAGNET is great - Dale Beermann (http://www.brazencareerist.com/profile/dale-beermann, @beermann) heads up the Entrepreneur committee. He also co-founded Propel Wisconsin - ... more...
I definitely want to be involved and was telling some of the other members to keep me up to date. Great idea! more...
That's really interesting, thanks! I'm lucky that my company more or less sells itself in pitches, but sometimes I just never hear back from anyone. I realize I already have a high success rate, ... more...
I'd love to know more effective ways of pitching - both from a freelance writer angle, and from a PR point of view... two different questions, ha. Thanks! more...
Rebecca Thorman became a fan of the company Randstad
Wow, what awesome timing. Thanks for letting us know! more...
Bought Gurensey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society today - looking forward to diving in later this week! more...
I like it :) You see a lot of big companies already doing this. Einstein's Bagels, for instance, gave out free bagels and schmear last week if you became a fan. Del Taco also gave a free taco to ... more...
I'm no longer doing the Monthly #goalmeetup on my blog, but the group is live and kicking on #brazen - http://bit.ly/bujrUB more...
