How FastCompany.com Got Me In Fast Company, The Mag!

If you look close enough in the latest issue of Fast Company, I'm there. Page 10 of the Obama issue is a promotional page/editorial about FastCompany.com. And the screen cap of Lynne Johnson (.com senior editor) was taken on Valentine's Day, the day I happened to respond to a question. My response is first on her page's list of "What My Contacts Are Saying."

The moral of the story is to participate, befriend the people in charge and get really, really lucky ... and you might get into Fast Company, too.

RSS Feeds In Fast Company

I'm impressed with the organization of RSS feeds within the Fast Company community but can't seem to find the method to pull one from my activity/posts/content/comments to subscribe to externally. Admittedly, I'm not always the brightest tie-dye at the Phish concert, but does such an animal exist?

Online communites offer email notifications of comments, activity, internal blog posts, etc., on user profiles. Why not have a singular RSS feed available to external readers for the user's community data, private and specific to each user certainly, but at least available?

I've never felt all too comfortable with blogs inside social networks. I blog at SocialMediaExplorer.com and that's where I hope people go to read what I have to write. But I like the thought of posting quick quips and items here to share with my Fast Company friends.
