Well to start with every time I read a blog on VAF I am amazed by the quality of the writers. Especially when I read anything by RhondaHolscher I truly feel like I am experiencing what Rhonda is talking about; I learn a lot from your writing Rhonda, thank you!

I also love the way OrganizedAssistant writes especially about the corporate world and what / which parts are useful in a different world such as the 'virtual world' we are now members of.

Hello there this is my first attempt at blogging on this forum. I hope you realise I am new at the blogging challenge but that is good because I can start the challenge to myself and any views here amongst friendly commentators... I have been having a few issues with my computer this year so missed out on January and February simply because out of 40 days my computer was not working for 25 of those days. In between facing up to those issues and spending more time than I would like to admit on fixing it I have learnt a little about twitter and how to share information to my Linkedin account and also link in my wordpress blog. Also I recently attended the AVAC conference in Melbourne and not only met awesome VAs but learnt a great deal....
