  3. Hello!
    What a wonderful resource you have here! I just found it by chance while traveling the Net inquiring about how to make an impact on a potential employer -- and whala -- your blog! I think you should know I've been on and off your "digital feet" for two days now -- I've gotten so much valuable information, especially the encouragement to start a blog of my own. I do have a huge digital foot myself, and yet, my blogging isn't one of them -- so far -- stay stunned:)! Thanks again, so glad I found you!
