I generally spend some of Sunday morning trying to catch up on reading blog posts and news articles that I missed during the week.

My favorite articles that I authored this week were:

One of the things that I do on Sunday mornings (in addition to my weekend blogging work over at Broadband Reports) is catch up on some of the more casual and fun reading that’s available on the web. I try to take some time to look through the Mixx selections that have been submitted to my Writing for Writers group. And I also check some of my favorite writing, social media and technology sites for stories and tips that I missed throughout the week.
