About a month ago I started really digging into social media to promote Sidearm and reconnect and stay connected with my contacts and friends. So I’ve started to revamp the Sidearm Facebook and MySpace pages, I’m posting links and tidbits on Twitter, and I’ve added a newsletter to Sidearm. The first newsletter will be coming out this week, so if you haven’t signed up make sure you do. The newsletter signup and all the other social networking info about Sidearm can be found in the “Connect” sidebar area.

You’re probably sick of hearing about it from everywhere else, but I would like to suggest that you give Twitter a try if you haven’t. If the prospect of 140 character messages seems annoying or boring, consider that you can get jokes from Michael Ian Black , Michael Showalter , and John Hodgman – for free! The jokes alone are worth using it. Oh, and be sure you follow Sidearm .

Update: the newsletter is going to have to wait because I have too much to do before I take off for Spokane early Thursday morning.
