BWrap Unwrapped
Welcome to the unwrapping of the BWrap. It’s a very special kind of blog. Like other blogs it’s personal, but it has a particular purpose.
I am getting into blogs somewhat reluctantly. I’m all for protecting the planet and I worried about adding even more bandwidth to the tower of Babel that the Internet represents. However this is a way of killing two birds with one stone. Welcome to Newslets.
Each month, Strategic Marketing Montreal produces a newsletter on some aspect of Internet Marketing Strategy. It takes a current theme and covers all aspects of this within 2000 words or so. The themes usually involve some current event in the Internet world or perhaps some aspect that has arisen in a client project. Of course during a month, many topics come to mind but there is only one newsletter per month.
The BWrap will be used as a “training camp” for such possible topics that arise during the month. Each one will be called a newslet. Remember that word. You heard it here first. It has a similar meaning to other words such as starlet or plantlet. Based on reactions and any comments on each newslet, a single one will be chosen and developed into a full length newsletter. I also may add newsworthy items that strike me from time to time even if these won’t make it to a Newsletter. So if you want to get an advanced reading on what may be coming up in the SMM Newsletters, or even want to influence what appears in the Newsletters, here’s the place to watch.
With this preamble, we declare the BWrap launched and open for comments.

BTW I have a confession to make to the word lovers among you. Before launching this Blog, I did a little Google search on both newslet and newslets. At that time I found no indication that the word had been used before. The only places where newslet occurred was in subdirectory names, obviously as a short form of newsletters. However this morning, I have found two other websites where the word Newslet is used to mean a short News item. It does not seem to be anyone’s copyright so I will continue to use it with this special sense of something that might grow into a Newsletter.

Looks good! I’m impressed, must have taken a lot of work to get to this point. Just wanted to say I’m enjoying it!

I like finding new blogs and although this post is one of the first on this blog I find the best thing to do is start from the beginning and search out the hidden treasures.
