The best part of living on the road is the freedom to work from anywhere. The worst part of working on the road is that you have to work from anywhere! Right now I am actually living and working out of a friend’s house, so I have the best of all worlds - wifi, van, bed, shower, kitchen, office space and everything I need to stay organized and more focused. I’ve started several ebooks on HOW to be mobile AND productive. And it’s been quite interesting!

CAPTION: Becky Blanton shakes Daniel Pink’s hand at the TED Global 2009 stage in Oxford, England July 2009.

I’m not a public speaker really and had no idea how to give a talk that would be worthy of the brilliance and inspiration of TED. But thanks to a fantastic web site called “SixMinutes.com” I got through it and gave, I think, the talk of my life. …
Okay. Hanging by a carabiner, not a thread. This is a “how-to secure articles in your van or RV,” or even your car blog post.

Today was not a good day. The reality of Rob’s death just set in….friend/family/kindred spirit. Forty-eight years old, he died in his sleep from an infection from a tooth last week.
