- Hey Romina, you know Social Actions better than almost anyone I know. If you'd have chance to glance through these pages, give us a sense of what you think is working well and what needs to be tweaked, that would be really truly sincerely appreciated. Mariel and all of us are focusing on requesting and incorporating that feedback over the next week or so.
http://wiki.socialactions.com/Communications+review+-+Navigation
Thanks in advance for even a quick review-and-response, here or to Mariel or via email or Skype or twitter or Fb or carrier pidgeon... :) ... or phone call? We're way overdue for a catch-up convo, too...

- Hi Romi,
We've rescheduled Thursday's Gentle Action webinar to Saturday May 23rd:
http://my.socialactions.com/events/gentle-action-introduction-and-1
The new date is tentative, pending more RSVPs, though we have reason to believe they'll be forthcoming (quite a few are interested in the event, but not available to attend during business hours). My fingers are crossed that the new date will work for you! Thanks for letting me know, and I'm sorry for any inconvenience caused by changing the May 7th date...
