penelope trunk is blogging…

I first found Penelope Trunk’s column, Brazen Careerist back in the dotcom heyday when it was published by Business 2.0– her column focuses mainly on career type issues. Since then it’s moved from B2.0 to Bankrate.com (an odd fit, I thought, but whatever since it kept her writing), and now she sends out her column via email… Hmm.. looks like that Bankrate archive of her column doesn’t work, and I can’t seem to find any good links to her B2.0 stuff… She also writes a bi-weekly column for the Boston Globe called Climb, but honestly, I never really read that one (Why? There’s no RSS feed and I’m too lazy to code one up..) Anyway, I’ve always really liked her smart, straight-forward, no-nonsense style of telling a story, so it’s sad that all of her old work is lost somewhere in the ether..

A while back, in exchanging a few emails with her about one of her columns, I mentioned to her that I really thought that she should blog, and even set up a blog for her on my site so that she could log in and take a look around…

So, I was happy today to get an email from her announcing that she’s finally started blogging, and even gave me a shout out on her first post!

Welcome to the world of blogging, Penelope, I’ve added you to my RSS reader, and I look forward to reading more..
