Right about now I’m on the road driving from the SF Bay Area to Eugene, Oregon to visit my in-laws.  Next week is my vacation, full of cold & rain while doing the yearly holiday visit with the extended family.  This week has been great with all the last minute holiday preparations.  I had a great Christmas, and I hope everyone out there had a terrific holiday.

Most people who didn’t take any extra vacation days are probably back to work today, so check out what you might have missed while making your last minute treks to Walmart for more bows and stocking stuffers.

• It’s not just awards season for the movies; ShareASale Performance Awards were announced on Monday.  Congrats go out to Scott Jangro, CSN Stores, Nicole Beidler, Checks Unlimited, GreenPlanetSearch, Missy Ward, and Melanie Seery for taking home top honors.
• The acclaimed BlueShirtNation, BestBuy’s internal employee social network, is radically changing according to co-founder Steve Bendt.  I’m interested to see where they take it.
• The Performance Marketing Alliance has finally settled on a Mission Statement.
• AffiliateTrust.org has been mentioned this week on Scott Jangro’s blog and the Affiliate Thing podcast.  From what I can discern from reading their About Us page, they’ve basically formed to help combat black hat or shady affiliate practices.  Which is definitely a good thing.  Take some time (as will I) to educate yourself by reading more.
• Are you making resolutions this year?  Missy Ward isn’t.  More power to her!
