As for my blogroll – you caught me.  I’ve been totally lazy and haven’t updated that in over a year and a half.  It’s time for me to get on that.

Hey, I respect your work, I'm told you're a great guy and don't want to be snarky, but can't help providing an outsider's perspective. I'm a coach, it's my job. I can't be the only woman who finds this archaic at best and offensive at worst. I don't consider myself a feminist, never needed to be one. However, this caused me to pause in surprise, then I checked out the diversity on your blog roll...it was my first visit to the site, and it did make an impression. Not 2.0. Old boy. Out of plumb. Don't need to see this posted, couldn't find an email link, don't have DM w/you on Twitter, not an FB friend. Moderate it out. Just wanted to raise the possibility that this might not represent you well. (then again, maybe I'm not your target audience, in which case..., per Lily Tomlin, never mind!)
