Awesomeness!!

The Language Today WordPress blog is picking up viewers; I've received some good feedback. We still do not have any volunteers at the moment but I realize now that these things take time.

There are some ideas that I have been toying with; I noticed that YouTube has extended the amount of space for video uploading. With that said, the original intent of this program was to be an audio podcast. Well, now I'm considering a 2 part segment, each fifteen minutes long, recorded on YouTube. I already have a good videocamera and it's digital.

December 1st is fast approaching and I think I'm going to have to pull a night where I stay up an hour later than normal, just to make sure I am able to turn the Pepsi grant in. When I tried to enter the grant, I was unable to submit due to entry limitations. Pepsi allows the first thousand applications and they they cut off until the next cycle, which is usually a month later. And the time of first entry is midnight. So, the goal is to stay up until 1am to make sure I am able to submit.

Wish me luck.

Keep going

I have been doing a few plugs for the WordPress blog on LinkedIn.com. The WordPress blog is still seeing some visitors now. There have been some responses to the volunteer flyers from Union students. Just recently, I posted a plug on Craigslist, so we shall see what happens.

Grant Writing

It's been a week since the flyers have been posted. Go figure! Today, while on campus, I just noticed that I didn't cut the areas with the phone number. How silly of me!

I tried to turn in the grant and will be unable to do so until December 1st. Pepsi only takes in 1000 applications at a time. So say a prayer or send energy.
