My 2009 Tech Resolutions

Earlier this year I bought a webcam, and it’s been staring at me, sitting in the package. My 2009 tech resolutions include breaking open that package and learning how to use it. I saw myself on a webcam at Radio Shack and looked like a character in Grumpy Old Men. "Why so serious?" the Joker asked.
Most importantly, I resolve to get better at Yahoo Fantasy Football. My team, the Screaming Macaws, finished with a .500 record. All my opponents were 24-year old friends of my son, who is the League Commissioner. Now that I'm better at it, I’ll invite clients to join my own league.
Getting hip on Twitter, start tweeting and making connections with it. Done. Follow me at http://twitter.com/LarryBodine I heard about a lawyer who was watching a golf game on TV, tweeted “do you think Tiger Woods will make this putt?” He got a response immediately from across the country, inquired about his business needs and opened a $250,000 assignment as a result.
I resolve to re-examine my connections on LinkedIn, and weed out the random connections that don’t relate to business. Done. I'm down to 254 connections. I am not impressed by other people who have 500+ LinkedIn connections; they have online garbage dumps. I will be more strategic in accepting invitations to connect.
