I feel awful. I haven't written on here in ages. I left the association world a year ago this week. It has been a crazy year, but it was great. Lots of new beginnings. I will do my best to do a little more on here in 2013. Happy New Year!

In case you didn't catch it last year, I did some Google TV ads testing.

Looks like they are doing a little more now.
