Today is Seventh Anniversary of 9/11...Let Us Not Forget

9/11 Freedom flagSeven years ago today the world was rocked by an unbelievable site, jet airliners crashing into the World Trade Center in New York City. Soon after, we were horrified by news that a similar incident had taken place in Washington DC.

Still later, we learned that a plane, American Airlines Flight 93, crashed in a remote field in Pennsylvania. It is a day, to quote President Franklin D. Roosevelt, "that will live in infamy." It is a day we refer to simply and reverently as 9/11.

Somewhere in the bustle of your busy day, stop and take a few moments to remember the events of that fateful day. Think about where you were when you heard the news.

Remember the sacrifices made by our military in defense of our freedoms. Stop, and express gratitude that we live in this great nation with all the blessings that accrue as a result.

Stop...soberly remember...and never forget.

Bizzuka Buzz Now Called 'User Friendly Thinking Radio'

Blog Talk Radio logo

Our weekly radio show on Blog Talk Radio, Bizzuka Buzz, is undergoing a bit of a rebranding. Originally, the showwas designed to talk about all the wonderful things going on atBizzuka. It was a way for our listeners to get to know us and us toknow them.

Quickly, however, we realized we needed to make sure the show provided real value to the audience. As such, we felt a name change was in order and so we now call the show "User Friendly Thinking." (Read blog post)

Here's the lineup for the rest of September:

Friday, Sept. 12 - Interview with Shannon Lynd, Bizzuka Senior Vice President of Product and Production, to discuss our new jeweler Web site project and partnership with leading jewelry manufacturer Stuller and industry trade publication National Jeweler.

Friday, Sept. 19 - We're taking the week off as show host Paul Chaney will be out of town.

Friday, Sept. 26 - On this edition we interview Rich Erb, organizer of the New Marketing Summit, a conference for marketing professionals, October 14-15, 2008, in Boston. Bizzuka CEO and User Friendly Thinking co-host John Munsell will be speaking at the event and Bizzuka is a sponsor.

We are in the process of creating a new "resources" section on the Bizzuka Web site. While it's not ready just yet, we have created a multi-media library where, among other things, we have archived all the Bizzuka Buzz/User Friendly Thinking podcasts.
