		<description>Wow, what a cool story. It&#039;s also neat how the real-world concept of &quot;circles you run in&quot; works online, too. I had never heard of Jonathan until yesterday, when I zapped him to ask for a MobiPocket or PDF option of his book. I had never heard of you until today. Now I&#039;m reading a few posts and I run in to this one. Just kind of cool.
Have a great 2010.</description>

		<description>This was a wonderful article Tamar.  I don&#039;t think that I have been in a situation like that.  

While this story has it&#039;s angles of awesomeness, it saddens me a bit.  These days, we live on the internet so much that we sacrafice certain aspects of day-to-day life.  I miss the days that I knew everyone that stayed in my building, and the next building over for that matter.  In my last apartment, I was there for about 8 months and didn&#039;t know 1 family.

This article has inspired me to progress relationships with my neighbors when I get back home.

See you around Tamar!</description>

		<description>Ah yes, that sounds all too familiar to me! It&#039;s great that you guys met up - and very coincidental too! I really try to get to know these people who I converse with online. Meet them, if I may. These friendships we build on the internet can go farther than just that - virtual. 

That was a good post! Thanks for sharing.</description>

		<description>I enjoyed reading this post. That is awesome, not only did he live in your neighborhood but right above you. lolol WOW that probably will never happen again. My desire to meet everyone I admire and look up to on the Internet has been a slow process. Since I moved away from San Francisco it has been slim picking.

I don&#039;t mind chatting on skype or yahoo my only fear is meeting the ones that have pushed the envelope into self entitlement. The ones that are so self involved they forget if it wasn&#039;t for our &quot;readership&quot; they wouldn&#039;t be where they are. Basically they start out as humble wonderful thinkers then something happens... I cannot tell you how many times I thought someone really gets it only to go to their website and they still don&#039;t even own their domain. Or they don&#039;t even have any share buttons on their posts. I know the economy has hit a lot of people in different ways but so many &quot;guru&#039;s&quot; are coming out of the woodwork it reminds me of the great influx of &quot;web designers&quot; in the early 90&#039;s.

Thanks for reminding me to stay the course. Being different and not buying into all the bells and whistles of self love (destruction in some cases) will only harm you in the long run. In conclusion I wrote an article about meeting clients... a little different take since most have been wonderful but every once in a while there is the Ahole in the crowd. I would love to share the link with your readers.

		<description>Chris Jones: I argue that we do.  I think a lot of people forget that there are real people with emotions behind every computer screen.  Too many people hide behind a cloak on anonymity.</description>
