With the all the Olympic glory and adversity we have been seeing the last two weeks it’s easy to overlook one “Olympian” who won’t be getting a medal in Vancouver.
Katie Spotz is from Mentor, Ohio (the town next door to mine). Katie is about the same age as most of our Olympic team.
She is rowing across the Atlantic Ocean.
Alone.
And she’s blogging all the way.
She’s almost there, too.
It’s all for a good cause:
The Blue Planet Run is a San Francisco based non-profit funding safe drinking water projects for the billion people around the world in need. Unsafe drinking water is the world’s leading cause of sickness and disease, but this crisis is solvable.
We take safe drinking water for granted. Much of the rest of the planet can’t.

Welcome to the new PW2 Web Blog!
This blog will be updated regularly on Tuesdays and Thursdays and often daily as the need arises.
S’MTuesday features social media trends of interest to individuals and small businesses.
Thriv’AbleThursday is about good uses of our technology and trends of integrating sustainability throughout our lives.
ORMSpecials are observations of (Online) Reputation Management issues and are posted as the need and arises. (Online) is written that way to de-emphasize one of my least favorite words. We are at a point where our lives and businesses are integrated between the online and offline worlds. I try to help people and businesses understand that and work with it.
One of my favorite words is “integration” – you will read it often here. You’ll also see a lot of “!”s.
I will also toss in an occasional post about Web design and development.
Posts will be short — usually less than 250 words.
There are several ways to follow and subscribe to the blog:
Follow PW2Web on Twitter.
Join the PW2Web Facebook page where posts will also appear.
Subscribe to the Posts and Comments RSS feeds.
Join me on LinkedIn.
Feel free to interact and feel just as free to “read-only”.
If you do want to post a comment, your first will be moderated to avoid spammers so don’t worry if it doesn’t show up immediately.
Thanks for reading!
