There have been several recent changes in my online empire. In addition to the new blog community search tool I recently introduced to the blogosphere, I’ve mentioned my new freelance site a few times, and my recent interview at ABCnews.com, but I wanted to take this opportunity to officially invite you all to visit Thrilling Heroics Consulting, a new sister site to Thrilling Heroics that will serve as my official business site, where I’ll offer my business blog consulting and other WordPress technical help aimed at professionals and non-geek bloggers. If you need a blog re-launch or are looking for some simple tips and tricks to increase your effectiveness with the WordPress blog publishing platform and expand the CMS’ functionality, it’s a good starting place. But I’ve just set the site up with another fresh design (thanks to Vinh Le’s awesome open-source theme from BlogDesignBlog.com) and I need YOUR help to send me your WordPress-related questions! If you have quick WP questions, follow me on Twitter and send your questions there, or contact me via Thrilling Heriocs Consulting for more detailed requests. I try to answer as many questions as I can on Twitter, and if you’ve got a good one, I just might discuss your requests on the blog.

Since it’s brand-spanking new to the blogosphere, I could really use your help promoting the Thrilling Heroics Consulting site to the community, so please vote it up on the social media sites and share the URL address if you’ve got friends or colleagues who are bloggers too. Thanks!

CodyMcKibben.com Will Now Serve As My Social Media Homebase

I’ll be compiling my portfolio and services listing at ThrillingDesign.com, but I’ve also recently transformed codymckibben.com into a static homepage. All of my articles that were originally posted there have been moved here to the Thrilling Heroics blog. codymckibben.com will serve as a social media HQ of sorts, so please feel free to reference it if you’re looking for my contact info or to see what projects I’m currently involved in, but looking ahead I encourage you to follow all my future updates on personal development, careeer, Gen-Y issues, social media, and more here at Thrilling Heroics (get the RSS feed here).

Visit the New Thrilling Heroics Bookstore!

In addition to the Thrilling Blog Search tool, I’ve also recently created an online bookstore for the Thrilling Heroics reader community. People that know me know that I love reading personal development and business books, and I really enjoy sharing the best of what I read. I’ve started an Amazon aStore where I’ve hand-picked the best personal and business development books. Several of these have been the most impactful books in my life, while others have been highly suggested by mentors and colleagues.

Whenever I find great new resources that I think the community will benefit from, I’ll add them in. For transparency, I receive a 4-6% commission on any books you purchase through the TH Bookstore and it will go to help offset the costs of running the site. Please consider buying a book to help support the site! (You can also purchase other books through my Amazon link for up to 34% discount!)
