Enjoy another Chad’s Choices from the Community post. This blog series is one of the most read and wildly popular series on the planet. (I made that part up.) I hope previous posts have brought ideas and thoughts your way and have helped you make new connections in the DEN Community. Keep reading to find a few blog posts and resources that were shared by a DEN member on Twitter. Keep in mind, while others may have also shared the same post/article, I saw it posted by the person I’m noting below. Forgive me if I’m not giving credit to the person who first posted it. In addition, you’ll find a few blogs by DEN members and members from community to follow on Twitter. Some of the people listed are veteran DEN members while others are new to the community. Lastly, I’d like to share a DEN Person of Interest.
