Power of the Personal: Mena Trott on Blogging

[Kate Foy]

This is a cross-post from my blog Spinning a Learning Web.

I am a big fan of TED Talks ever since I discovered them earlier this
year. If you want to be inspired by a mover, shaker, thinker or doer in just about any field, check them out at the TED Talks page.

TED stands for 'technology, education, and design' but in this video, the delightful mover/shaker/thinker and doer Mena Trott, speaks about why she blogs. Mena is the President and co-founder of Six Apart, the amazingly successful company that has given us Type Pad, Vox, Live Journal, and now Movable Type. Where does she get the time to blog?

I watch this for fun, to refresh my thinking on blogging, and to be reminded of the value of the personal.
