So, its not everyday that my website work is recognized on a national scale. A recent New York Times article on Sleep Health and CBT-I Therapy made reference to two websites that I designed and currently manage. The University of Pennsylvania International CBT-I Provider Directory and the Society of Behavioral Sleep Medicine Website. I have worked with these two organizations closely for many years to promote and grow awareness of CBT-I and Behavioral Sleep Medicine. I also work with CBT-I clinicians from around the world looking to grow their CBT-I client base in their own countries.

What I'm Reading this Month
Picked up this book at Barnes & Noble the other day and breezed through it. I found some of the psychological aspects of the book most interesting. Specifically "The Rat Brain: Why email is so addictive" chapter provided me some great insights for when I design and craft email messages for my clients. Some of the book I found to be more focused on email newbies and people that find themselves at the mercy of a daily onslaught of emails.

I've been a fan of Seth Godin since Purple Cow. Seth has a wonderful ability to identify the shifts occurring in our economy and lifestyles before they happen and organize strategies to make the best of the changes. The primary focus of this book is employees looking to secure their place in a digital world, versus entrepreneurs, but the strategies do cover multiple business perspectives.

The preferred colors and fonts were incorporated into the website along with Calls to Action identifing various ways to support the mission of the Clark County Youth Sheter.
This website was designed and built for a CyberTek client.

Dan Neel Selected to be a DMOZ Editor
After several attempts over the years, I was recently accepted to this volunteer position!
What is the DMOZ Project?
The DMOZ Project is the largest human edited directory in the world. Volunteers applicants are screened and evaluated and then trained to ensure the online directory is maintained and operated by specific guidelines and kept up to date. The DMOZ has multiple benefits for websites, none more important than being able to tell search engines that your website is listed on the most successful Internet directory.
How did I become a DMOZ Editor?
Over the years I submitted my entry to the DMOZ on several occasions but would never hear back. It was a bit challenging and I would learn a little bit more about the project each time I would go through the application process. I recently received my approval letter and I'm actively managing a category on the DMOZ.
Why did I become a DMOZ Editor
Over the years I grew tired of seeing obsolete information showing for the categories related to my community. I just decided I wanted to help with this project and ensure quality websites are included for my community and obsolete listings with absent URL's are removed.
