Top 5 ideas while Surfing on Sunday

 The house is quiet, all are sleeping except for me and I get to sit with coffee, think, surf and imagine what life would be like if I could follow any old fool dream I have.   The frustrating reality of my life is that following my fool dreams without a great deal of selective filtering has always been an impossible task.  I find that I have about 20 freely associated paths per hour when I allow myself to relax and let them flow.  Nobody is capable of following through on 20 separate threads every half hour and having a hope of having any of them grow. 

The filter I have applied is to jot down all the ideas no matter how crazy and then start pairing down to the ones that are the felt the most immediately relevant to me.

 In the past hour, here are the ones I thought I wanted to revisit and build upon.

1. Attend a Google seminar on    Advanced Analytics
   
2. Publish a FunderCats video or three!
   
3. Find a unified system for managing my Social Networks
   
4. Deploy Joomla, Smarty and Wordpress platforms for the experience.
5. Compare above experiences to Drupal and defend my favorite.

All of these have the potential of improving my command of the web 2.0 space in some way or increasing my Social networking skills.  There is a glaring talking point missing as I re-read my list, however.  Where is today's profit?   So I need to revisit this.

1. Commit to Beyond Print's profitability
   
2. Clarify the services we offer.
   
3. Network in person and virtually.
   
4. Get a signature on a contract.
   
5. Analyze how to repeat 1-4 more quickly and easily.
   

Ok, now we are getting somewhere and the house is no longer quiet so it's time to move on.
