theBubbler.com was "dormant" for quite a few years...and by some measures theBubbler was still the 4th largest Wisconsin portal.

Traffic is really picking up this year. Programmer and Water Cooler News Editor Andy Libecki has done a terrific job and that's a good part of the reason. The support from the rest of the staff at Keith Klein & Associates, Inc., is another part of the reason. Perhaps most important, we've developed some great fans in the new registered member...

Published this somewhere on theBubbler...can't find it so here it goes in my Journal:

By the looks of many service organizations, Lions, Rotary, Kiwanis, etc., the greatest generation is, indeed, the greatest generation.

The average guy in my Lion's Club is, I believe, 80 years old going on 120. Five of them to every one of us under 55 or 60. When a couple of forty-somethings join, it is a youth movement.

TheBubbler.com is my "pet project" - allowing the combination of many interests. Wisconsin booserism. Social networking. The internet. Business, particularly sales and marketing.

I'd like to share what is happening with theBubbler.com here from time to time.

Right now I'm pleased to report that 38 users are online at theBubbler as I type this. Lately we've been running an average of 30 to 50 people online at any given time.
