The 2016 Annual Summary

I do an annual summary every year ,not only of Blogger, but of all my blogs.This post gives a summary of all my yearly activities.This was the year of twitter as I made 101 tweets but someone hacked my blog and changed the name to "hacked". I decided to use it less(but still some) for my consulting contacts and more for personal messaging.Blogdaleup on Wordpress has been my workhorse as I do most of my consulting messaging here.I rely on Tumblr less this year but it still had 86 posts although many were reblogs from  other blogs.Econothon and Econothon II were both new blogs and I am only starting to use these blogs in 2016.Linkedin is a new entry and I use it for more of my theoretical pieces.But the heart of my activity is still this blog and Workathon and Blogdaleup(Wordpress).In total, I have 248 posts on this blog and 165 on Workathon.                            

New things

Besides having a few new pictures there were a few new tweaks added in 2016.I put all my messages relating to combinations or mini-mergers on Twitter at the first of the year.But some matters were too complicated to be contained on Twitter and I was shortening some messages which should not have been shortened.So I started putting most of them back again on Blogdaleup on Wordpress;they were longer and more precise.But now instead of sending them to Facebook and Twitter and Pinterest I started sending them directly to the interested parties.Some to consultants and some to investors(like Omers and Canada Pension Plan) and less to Twitterand Facebook.The nature of my blogging was starting to change also and be more active rather than passive.My recommendations were more direct and specific.There were noticeable changes as the companies affected by the messages and blogs were starting to react positively.Not all of course but some reacted positively and immediately however none acknowledged any gain coming from my posts.For example,Intrinsyc Software went from $1.00 to the $2.25 area and Norsat went from $6.00 to $10.50 and Tecsys went from $7.00 to $9.50.

The Future of My Blogs

My posts,especially on this blog,will be consulting in nature,addressing specific problems and showing the status of revenues and earnings' performance.The posts will not be directed to the general public but to interested parties.The interested party will not have requested suggestions but most times the stock price will benefit from these posts.
