It’s been a while since I last updated the ‘Tell Me About You’ project, and I realised that I’m so far behind with this. So, I figured that it’s best for me to start catching up now. After all, a promise is a promise. 
So, here goes 3 more people who are worth highlighting. I’ve worked with these women – first, at AboutWeblogs.com and now, at b5media.com. All three of them adapted the same ‘Tell Me About You’ project in their own blogs. Cool, eh?
Anyway, my write-up here is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to these lovely ladies…
- Dr. Hsien Hsien Lei – Hsien is our blogger extraordinaire at b5media’s Genetics and Health blog, as well as the Play Library blog. She is also b5′s fantastic Channel Editor for the Science & Health and Family & Relationships channels. She’s hardworking, intelligent, and reliable to the core. I can’t thank my lucky stars enough that I have her on my team. I met her online through my personal blog when she left a comment back in Jan/Feb 2004. We started a blog friendship from thereon, and cemented the whole deal when we worked with each other in Apr 2005. Thanks for always being there, Hsien! (Link to Hsien’s ‘Tell Me About You’ post)
- Krissy Baker – Ahhh… Lively, funny Krissy! She used to be the blogger for our very entertaining Performing Arts blog. Unfortunately, she had to bow out shortly after our merger with b5. But, she’s been great about it. I still miss being in contact with her more often. Anyway, I’m pleased to see her blogging away still — now, in her very own funky domain. I met Krissy through Hsien, then we recruited her to be a blogger at AW. Krissy, please drop me a line every now and then, will ‘ya?
(Link to Krissy’s ‘Tell Me About You’ post) - Christine Gooding – Christine’s our very talented and creative blogger for b5′s Scrapbooking blog, The Mad Cropper, as well as The Hilton Files. I found out about Christine’s personal blog by following a blogroll link through another online friend (Melissa) early in 2004. I decided to leave her a message and we started corresponding. Through Christine, I met Berns – who’s now my partner-in-crime over at FreshWave.TV (and a very good friend). She’s this person who seems to have a massive network of friends and acquaintances. It’s incredible. Christine, I believe, is the first person I signed up to blog for the AW network. And, I’ve always been happy that she joined! Anyway, we’re still hoping to meet in person one of these days… Right, Christine? (Link to Christine’s ‘Tell Me About You’ post.)
Well, that’s it for now. Until next update, that is.

Hi Shai — thanks for the mention
I’m so glad we ‘met’ and really pleased that you hooked up with Berns too 
She’s awesome! Someday, I am sure our paths will cross — I’ve been to Rockhampton, Brisbane, Hobart, Melbourne — Maybe my next trip across the Tasman will be in Adelaide or perhaps you and your family can come down to the beautiful city of Christchurch for a visit 
Looking forward to meeting you in person, Shai!
