    Re: Unlimited Paid Leave? Oh yes.
    Guest
    I would like to commend you for the spirit of your efforts. Hopefully, your smaller payroll will allow you to make this system work. But for most corporations, I firmly believe this approach would be doomed to failure. This policy will turn into a nightmare for any who would rebel against the oppression seen in corporations who create policies based on the performance of the LCD. The standard will be set not by "Disciplined people who engage in disciplined thought and who take disciplined...

    Was that your 15 minutes of fame or are you going to be working on a bit more controversy to keep the momentum going? Looking forward to your next release.

    Rosemary ... may I just say how I love these blogs. I tune in regularly to read them. After reading of your new leave policy I googled you and watched one of your TV interviews (can't remember which one). May I make a serious suggestion? Get a new photo for your avi! You looked gorgeous on TV, I don't think your photo does you justice! Keep up the good work

    I don't understand how this works with medical leave. What if someone has a long illness -- are they still getting paid their usual wages/salary? In my company, we believe we are renting 40 hours per week of our employees' time. We do not expect them to work longer hours to do their jobs. We would never put them in the position of competing against each other for who can work the longest hours. We have single mothers and older people on our payroll. We have no desire to pit these people...

    Reference: Sounds like a great system for o/c overachievers who have no other lives. Not at ALL true, donnarae! Ever since I've started working at Social Strata (10 years in May), I've heard about the necessary balance of life and work, and I've been encouraged to live outside of work. All of us have lives, some of us have small children and some have important parts to play in others' lives. There are no overachievers with no other lives here! This CAN work. In ANY company. The key is...

    I hope it works -- I think it is a great way to treat employees. I don't think our bunch is ready for it. Too many little squabbles and turf wars going on. How do you handle abuse? At some point, if it is abused, some kind of action has to occur. I know that you have exceptional employees and don't anticipate any problems, but do you have a plan for what to do if someone does abuse it? Thanks, Donna

    Hi Rosemary, Thanks for the COPPA update. Can you call out the cavalry on the eve question shark forum? There are a bunch of us whose entire websites and forums have been down for an hour without response from social strata. Thanks so much.

    Re: 6 Key Questions to Answer Before Starting Your Online Community
    Harold
    I went to opposite approach. I purchased a UBB license from Infopop to give a few friends and I a new home and blindly jumped in with both feet. I can't thank you enough for giving a complimentary license to Leo Laporte. That was my intro to the world of Social Strata.

    Re: Can you create a community?
    Handzofpraise Deborah Glenn
    I completely agree with the post. Creating the community online is merely a way to HOST people in coming together. It allows connection,(eventually mine will also have chat as most of my members are either deaf or interpreters) People long for connection and having an online community that facilitates a place to meet gives deaf people a sense of belonging that at times they do not have if they live alone or have very little connection with people who are able to communicate with them. Thank...

    Re: Hoop.la 2.0 Goes Beta!
    Bradley Blinn
    lot of major updates. very impressive. look forward to accessing the beta site and making an aggressive push to launch my Hoop.la site. I think forum owners are going to see a SIGNIFICANT increase in engagement across their site with the mobile friendly responsive design. That is HUGE! I suspect large community sites using UBB Forum will see an amazing increase in overall utilization. I look forward to being more engaged with Social Strata. This is a high quality update for sure. Congrats.

    Such a nice little well-written jab at the drug Facebook and Twitter are injecting into their users. The many Hoop.la, UBB, and Eve communities, as well as Narrative are examples of how user to user interaction through the web should be done.

    The Sticky at the top of the page feels too large, and you lose the context of the discussion. Suggestion. Instead of this: Continue to display the breadcrumbs like this. That is: Make the breadcrumbs sticky. ST

    You know I never got an intro to Audrey, all that way and I never got to shake her by the leaf. *Wonders if Lori talks to Audrey when they are alone*

    Re: Behind the Scenes - Meet Audrey
    Lori
    Well, James, if I *did* talk to her when we're alone, I wouldn't necessarily tell you. This plant is as old as my great-uncle. The story is that my great-uncle's grandmother sent a clipping from HER Christmas cactus to her daughter, on the day he was born. She rooted it, and this is the result. When my great-aunt died, my great-uncle had my parents drive it home from Coeur d'Alene (that was about 13 years ago, I think), and I've had her ever since. I'm the one who named her.

    Most people in the United States have not heard of most privately-owned small-businesses in the United States. Within the market, people know of Social Strata (or at least of Groupee and Infopop), but in general, average Americans do not. So that comment is rather weak. I've been watching the coverage from afar and while its fun to see my friends getting some attention, I haven't seen anyone that has covered the story really get it. It's really about saying "As long as your responsibilities...

    I agree Rosemary, we need to up the "panache" levels in everything we do! It is so obvious when we meet someone who does what they do - with panache. What a difference panache makes and what a fabulous word "panache" is!

    Happy Valentine's Day today? A little premature perhaps...but that's men for you. Having said that I can hardly complain ... in Wales we have it a little on the early side too. 25th January - St Dwynwen's Day. http://www.historic-uk.com/His...istory/StDwynwen.htm But then 14th February is stolen from an old Roman ceremony - Lupercalia. http://www.meridiangraphics.net/lupercalia.htm Sounds like a lot more fun than a dozen red roses frankly.

    I just got back in after being out all week, and the guys clearing the parking lot, at work, of the foot of snow that we got, dumped a tractor loader bucket or two in the bed of my pickup. I grabbed a shovel and put it back on the sidewalk. There's my panache for the week.
