			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve learned so much today at the first  of a two day WordCamp event here in Atlanta GA. Wow is my brain tired.  I&#8217;m still a little wired and need to get ready to do it all again in 8 hours.  I&#8217;ll be ready. The clock is set. </p>
<p>My role at this event is mostly to see that the 5 video cameras catch the presentations and all this great content is archived at WordCamp.tv  If you have an interest in WordPress then you should be checking this resource on a regular basis. the production quality is stinky but the content is high value and worth your time.</p>
<p>One surprising tip I&#8217;ve picked up is going to be unbelievable to some of you but it is this &#8211; don&#8217;t tag your posts. I have a good idea that this advice is valid and there&#8217;s a great reason for this but chances are you&#8217;ll think I&#8217;m full of hooey. I&#8217;m just putting it out here and not trying to sell it.</p>
<p>My presentation is tomorrow and will be about security and backup. I posted the slides at SlideShare.net and have received nearly 900 views on it today. THis is quite amazing and I can&#8217;t wait to see how many it will have tomorrow.  It was chosen to be featured on the homepage of the site which is a thrill. </p>
<p>I&#8217;m posting it here since to make it simple to find. If you use WordPress you need to think about your backup plan.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[WordPress security presentation at WordCamp Atlanta by Randy Barnes. Security for the beginners and non-coders in the WordPress community.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>WordPress fans from all over the world enjoy the best un-conference around at WordCamps. These events, overseen by the WordPress Foundation, occur rather consistently around the world.  It&#8217;s been 25 months since the last Atlanta event so this tribe is really pumped.</p>
<p>WordCamp is totally Sold Out &#8211; and did so rather quickly. The size is perfect at about 300 people. The venue is excellent, as we learned at the last WordCamp, being held at the large HQ for Savannah College of Art and Design, aka SCAD!</p>
<p>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 511px"><a href="http://2012.atlanta.wordcamp.org/speakers/"><img alt="Atlanta WordCamp 2012 - Speaker Randy Barnes" src="http://rbarnes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/RandyBarnes_Atlanta_Web_video.png" title="Atlanta WordCamp 2012" width="501" height="260" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">I&#039;m Speaking at Atlanta WordCamp 2012</p></div><br />
My presentation will focus on security and backups for WordPress. Since I&#8217;m no coder/developer I will be talking about this from the point of the average WordPress user. We don&#8217;t want no stinking php hacks, we just want to KISS. After over one hundred hours of study on this topic I have some (IMO) valuable insight.</p>
<p>The presentation is just about ready and I will be posting the whole thing sometime soon. There&#8217;ll be the presentation slides, the audio, and then the video, so that you interested WordPressers can learn what I have. </p>
<p>Speaking of video, that&#8217;s what I&#8217;d rather be doing right now.  That&#8217;s more my bag than sitting here writing in the WP editor.  Blah blah blah..That will just have to wait however as I am going through this new theme and really trying to make some fast progress.  You may not be able to tell but this is a new &#8220;mobile responsive&#8221; <a href="http://demo.studiopress.com/eleven40/" title="eleven40 theme from StudioPress" target="_blank">eleven40</a> child theme on the Genesis platform. So far I think it&#8217;s the best ever. </p>
<p>If you&#8217;re new around here you may like to take a quick tour in this <a href="www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDhqgiUkaic" title="for Atlanta WordCampers" target="_blank">Atlanta Web Video.</a></p>
<p>If you are attending WordCamp Atlanta please look for me. I&#8217;m easy to find. </p>
<p>Happy Trails.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This <a href="http://www.socialmediaexaminer.com/30-social-media-predictions-for-2012-from-the-pros/" title="30 Social Media Predictions for 2012" target="_blank">30 Predictions for 2012</a> post has lots of great info and is one of my favorites. Notice how heavily video is involved in this conversation. In my view it  lot of great advice and is worth using in revising your 2012 marketing strategy plan.<br />
<div id="attachment_621" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img src="http://rbarnes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/socmed30pred2012-300x151.png" alt="Web Video High on THe List in Social Media for 2012" title="Social Media Predictions for 2012" width="300" height="151" class="size-medium wp-image-621" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Predictions for 2012 - Video is King </p></div></p>
<h3>Web Video</h3>
<p>I Atlanta GA, we are fortunate to have resources for web video widely available and readily available.  I offer a great package of video services from production and editing, to YouTube channel development.  Visit my video blog to learn more about my offerings in <a href="http://ezvideoguy.com" title="EzVideoGuy.com Video Blog- Atlanta Web Video" target="_blank">Atlanta web video</a>.</p>
<p><div id="attachment_625" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://ezvideoguy.com"><img src="http://rbarnes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/ezvideoguyscrncap-300x116.png" alt="Web Video the Easy Way with Atlanta&#039;s EzVideoGuy" title="EzVideoGuy Video Blog" width="300" height="116" class="size-medium wp-image-625" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Atlanta Web Video Guy Randy Barnes, EzVideoGuy Blog</p></div><br />
Video has come to age and is now the bulk of digital traffic around the world. The tail has indeed become the dog and is really just getting started.  The TV networks I grew up with are fading fast in their old age. Many Youtube videos are out runining &#8216;real&#8217; TV in numbers of viewers. Never has the mighty become so vulnerable when folks like you and me can get straight into their cookie jar. </p>
<p>Get started with video now.  Use your camera everyday. If you have an iPhone then youve got one of the best digital [1080p HD video] cameras in the market.  Video cameras are everywhere and can all be used effectively with a little testing and experience.</p>
<p>If you are in the Atlanta area, and want to learn more, one of the best ways is do join the <a href="http://meetup.com/atlyoutube" title="Atlanta YouTube Meetup group" target="_blank">Atlanta YouTube</a> users through MeetUp.com. The monthly meetings will be a big help in getting your content online and ddelivering your message effectively 24/7. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I went over to hear the Woodward and Bernstein duo lecture at Emory U, tonight. It&#8217;s just down the road, and it was free. Turned out to be a good worthwhile event.</p>
<p>My secret taping give me a little great pleasure.  For those that missed Sam Irving and the Watergate Hearings I guess you can&#8217;t really get it.  My favorite album in colleg was the National Lampoon&#8217;s Watergate Tapes spoof. Priceless.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The year 1804 the worlds population reached a billion. Soon after WW1 we topped 2 billion. Somewhere last week or next we welcome the 7,000,000,000th.  Think energy costs are going down? Think jobs are going to be less competitive?</p>
<p>If I had children I&#8217;d be teaching them the value of dried beans and backyard gardening. Learn a foreign language and walk frequently. </p>
<p><a href="http://www.grinzo.com/energy/2011/05/04/countdown-to-7000000000/" title="7 billion people can't be wrong ;-)" target="_blank">This article</a> is a good one with links to some others. Read it if you like. I just can waste what little time Ive got worrying too much about it.  </p>
<p>Remember a billion is = a thousand million. It&#8217;s a big number.</p>
<p>Real Estate will likely come back, some day.</p>

<p>Thank you for scanning my business card to learn a little more about me.</p>
<h3>I make Web Video in Atlanta, Greenville SC, Charlotte &#038; Greensboro NC</h3>
<p>I am a digital marketer and love to use <a href="http://ezvideoguy.com" title="EzVideoGuy Blog" target="_blank">web video</a>. If you&#8217;d like to know more about this then please connect soon.</p>
<p>Video done my way is inexpensive and effective. It gets your message out there 24/7 and last for years. There&#8217;s just no better way for getting a powerful result, at least in my opinion. <img src='http://rbarnes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>If you have any questions about video you can just add them in the comments below. For this post I&#8217;ll contact you before posting the comment publicly and will not do so without your permission so fire away!</p>
<p>I would love to speak to your small group or invite you to one of my training sessions.  I teach about video production and editing on a tiny budget; YouTube channel development and traffic building; WordPress development and strategies, and social media promotion.  I&#8217;m just nuts for this stuff!</p>
<p>Video will help get your message out but the pest path will be to have some sort of a plan before you take off in a wrong direction. Get out a piece of paper and organize a few thoughts about what you want to accomplish and how you think you will get there.  I&#8217;ll be happy to offer my 2 cents and some friendly advice to the mix, and may help get you to your goal a little faster. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here&#8217;s a taste of Mikey&#8217;s Rocktoberfest. I have no way to give you a taste of the barBQ pork, brisket, and chicken, nor the fab sides desserts, the buckets of brewskies and coolers of cold ones. I can however share a bit of the entertainment.</p>
<p>here, for a while is a mp3 recorded with my Zoom H2.  The first half is a little better recording than the 2nd half but it&#8217;s offered here as recorded and for what it&#8217;s worth.</p>
<p>Enjoy.</p>
