Thanks so much for all your attention and readership during the last few months. Writing for Know More Media has been great fun. I often wonder why people are willing to pay us to blog, as we enjoy it so much. I spend hours everyday blogging on my home blog, much to the detriment of my family sometimes, but blogging is contagious and I know have a husband and a child blogging as well. However, time constraints have forced me to give up writing for SocialRiots. It was not a decision I made lightly, and I look forward to seeing who is pegged to replace me as I will be a frequent reader. Thanks again for all of your encouragement. It really meant a great to me. Robyn Tippins
