Amy Lupold Bair
Who has not heard of Amy, maybe you know her as ResourcefulMommy? I don’t follow her blog much been there a few times to sign up for a party, but I know her well from twitter. She is the lady to follow if you like a good Twitter Party! You will find her hosting some of the biggest and best Twitter Parties on Twitter.
After looking over her blog I asked myself, why am I not following her blog. ResourcefulMommy.com is her personal blog but it is filled with fun, smiles, and life at its best.
Here you will find the heart of a mother, the voice of an author, and the feedback of a savvy and enthusiastic consumer with a home to run and two fabulous children to raise…all while developing a flourishing business.
If you are looking for someone who is a true social media guru then Amy is the person to follow.

Chris Brogan
I really started following Chris when I got onto Google+. It was amazing to see how some people opened up in the first beginnings of Google+ and I loved to read Chris and see a more real side of him. I quickly got on board and added him to my google reader and signed up for his newsletter.
Though I run a business, my belief has always been that I can share as much as 90% of what I know how to do for free, and that if you need more than that, then you’ll likely want to pay for the extra help.
Chris has all the amazing stats of a great business man and blogger as you can read on his about page. But that isn’t the only reason I suggest following him I love his belief in sharing what he can for free.
Chris is also a great example of how when someone hits the big time they still connect and don’t loose touch. This is how you create a real community!

Bloggers you Should be Following: Corbett Barr
Today I want to introduce you to someone I just met.
Corbett Barr
I found his name on another site as someone to watch in 2012 so I decided to look at some of his projects that he has started. One word of warning his sites do not have a pg rating, but maybe that’s what caught my eye he has passion!
Think Traffic had a great post up about being At Your Lowest Point with your blog and being ready to really build a blog that matters! Yes please I want to see passion like this in bloggers! I love that Corbett’s main goal is to teach bloggers How to Create a Blog that Matters! I want to do this and I’m sure you do to!
Then I pulled up his main blog, Corbett Barr, and saw that he is talking about motivation and this is what my real focus is all about this year! Building motivation and working hard!
Corbett is now in my Google Reader and I can’t wait to start reading more!
