Thanks for your comment. The title “Internet Famous” came to me through Chris Pirillo who has been given that title by his community. I’m not a fan of generalizations or titles on the Web (social media guru really irks me) and due to the massive size of the Web, “fame” and “influence” are relative.

What’s important is to build a community because you’ve offered up great content and hope that they will share the content with others and so on, eventually positioning you as a B-list celeb or “expert” online. I don’t think until you’ve elevated yourself to that point (where you’re recognized/respected by whatever community for whatever it is you do) that you can move the needle and cause waves..and when you do, you do something significant, only then (IMHO) can you add “Internet Famous” to your business card (or in your Bump profile).

The “don’t sleep” is extreme, but it never ceases to amaze me how much I miss when I go to bed early or wake up late. It never fails. And while we obviously need some sleep, it is an area that sometimes requires a bit of sacrifice in order to stay abreast of what’s out there. Ask Chris Pirillo, Chris Brogan or Peter Shankman…all hugely successful and I’m willing to bet none of them get more than six hours of sleep a night. If giving up two hours a night means that I can be 1/8 as successful as they are…well, count me in.
