Eight is Enough for DryerBuzz.com?
July 2, 2009
Have you ever had a moment where you thought “this is it!” Thinking to yourself are even shouting out loud, “this is where I’m suppose to be” or “this is what I’m suppose to be doing.” When you get to that point, live feels good, the horizon is pretty clear. You’re so good at it, and then you get comfortable. You master being in that place at that moment, because that’s what you do.
For some comfortable doesn’t cut it. Some people have the energy to put out fires everyday. Not like firemen, but people who live on the edge of creativity and innovation. But more like the creative geniuses who don’t sleep and are always jumping out of bed with ideas. Nothing is ever finished. The more they look at it, the more they change it, add to it, subtract from it or start all over.
I remember the first time I printed a color copy of the first “DryerBuzz” salon newsletter. A friend and I stood at the edge of the printer waiting to see it in living color. Not everyone had a color printer in those days. I think at the time, I just bought a laser printer, but my friend had color. Plus this was the first print under the new “brand.” I still have that copy today. The top story was about Columbine. A couple years later the new “brand” was creating a buzz online.
Planning the 2009-2010 seasons, started asking myself if eight was enough. Was having the “been there done that feeling” when reading press releases and researching stories. What more could be said, read, podcast, even live? Started searching high and low for the stories we had not run, the adventures we had not done (in a while at least). What was new on the horizon?
Well we found it. However, at post time, our 3PM deadline is approaching. Looks like I get to keep the secret just a little longer, perhaps another 24 hours. There are a couple hints and a special invitation if you follow us on twitter. Lastly, the beginnings of the exciting buzz are already linked in our navigation if you can find it.

Either way, we’ll update soon. Don’t miss a minute of the buzz. To be contiued…

TheRoot.com | Starting Over: How Iyanla Lost Her Home
March 19, 2009
In a conversation with TheRoot.com, Iyanla Vanzant opens up about living without health insurance, losing her daughter to cancer and her home to a subprime mortgage. “I didn’t do anything wrong. And I think that’s what happens with people who have shady mortgage deals. They start to feel like “I should’ve known better; I should’ve done better.” If you have a mortgage payment and you don’t have a job, you can’t pay the mortgage. It’s just that simple.”

Thousands Listened to TheObamaCall For Inauguration
January 20, 2009
National Buzz – DryerBuzz & Company launched The Obama Call (www.TheObamaCall.com) in time for thousands to enjoy the 2009 Inauguration of President Barack H. Obama Tuesday, January 20, 2009. Knowing some readers would be in the middle of their work day, behind fire walls, and away from PC’s and TV, DryerBuzz provided a simulcast and live national discussion for the Oath of America’s new president.
Listeners from Virginia to Washington State logged on or called The Obama Call (www.TheObamaCall.com) to listen live. In the middle of President Obama’s speech, there were reports websites streaming the oath ceremony had come to a slow pace if not complete halt. However, the coverage continued via The Obama Call while sites came back to stream.
“While the country moves ahead with technology, many of our devices are forbidden in the work place and not everyone has the latest gadgets nor cable. We wanted to be there for our readers in this historic time,” says Yalanda Lattimore editor of DryerBuzz.com and host of DryerBuzz & Company. “We were happy to have met the challenge and be a part of history.”
DryerBuzz & Company has operated such hot lines before such as with the March to Jena and other blog breaking events. The live and interactive news source is well know around social networks with a reputation for getting the story out now.
DryerBuzz.com has been online under the same brand since 2002, coming to the Internet after a stint in local salons with the buzz behind the buzz.
