New Interview with Jim

1. My Interview with
Jim Linnertz
by Gina Leone
Q&A regarding Jim’s Blog and Life!!

2. Q: Tell me a little background about
yourself?
• I am 48 years old. Live in Syracuse, New York.
Married with three children. Currently looking for a
second career. Enjoy Central New York and traveling.
Like to travel and outdoor activities with the family such
as hiking, camping, rock climbing, skiing.

3. Q: What are your long term goals for
your blogs appearance?
• I am trying to clean it up. It is not as
professional looking as I would like. There is
more that can be done with it I am just not
familiar enough with wordpress yet.

4. Q: Why are you taking this blogging class?
What do you hope to get out of it?
• I am taking the blogging class to fulfill a
requirement but also to see how blogging
could work to enhance my job prospects or
when I find a second career, to enhance
whatever that endeavor is.

5. Q: I really enjoyed your you tube video with Casey
Neistat. Would you ever consider having him as a guest
blogger or podcast with him?
I dont think so. I would be concerned about
where he might take it not knowing him at all. It
would require a lot more reasearch on him and
his views.

6. Q: During your visit to New York
what was the craziest bike lane/biker
story you have?
I dont have one in particular but what I have
noticed is that some of the bikes weave in and
out at times with what appears to be no regard
for cars. There are a lot of near misses.

7. Q:If you were to pick one song to
describe your life, what would it
be?
Pressure. Queen.

8. Q:What is one feature that
entices you to read a blog?
Must be relevant to something that I like
interesting. Old and outdated
information is discouraging.

9. Q:If you were paid to blog about anything,
what would it be and why?
• Any topic that would enhance my work or
marketability. I think if there is enough of an
audience to support the blog, it could work well
for networking and building a customer base.
