That may be about to change, with LinkedIn's new sharing features! Now, the times – they are a-changin’!

In two years at my association I have been involved in two website development projects. The first spent almost two years in development but ended without an actual launch, while the second took about a year of development ending in a successful launch.

For me that always was – and is – June 1st (my farmer roots??). However, smartypants that he is, my son insists on the scientific/astronomy-based date – June 22nd or something.

I doubt you throw trash on a roadway. I bet you don't even drop candy wrappers on the street. But I'm not so sure about your status as a e-polluter.

They freely Tweet and Retweet with little regard to the waste they are spreading or how they may be using up others' attention.
