Holy Hopping Hounds Batman – I love me some Corbett Barr! The guy is prolific – producing many things in the blogging/entrepreneurship communities.

Corbett is an independent writer, entrepreneur and founder of Insanely Useful Media. He has been in my tweetstream for a while now thanks to an introduction from my friend Jackie Lee. It has been a pleasure watching Corbett develop his stuff and expand his online empire.

I’m proud to have Corbett as a part of the Frank’s #FollowFriday series.

Here are my 5 reasons you should be following Corbett Barr:

1. His personality

I strongly dislike arrogant assholes. Corbett isn’t one. Through his writing and especially his videos you get a sense of his caring, passionate, kind and humorous personality. he doesn’t take himself too serious – but you get a sense that he really knows and cares about the message he is delivering.

Social Media needs more Corbett Barr’s.

2. His writing style.

It is just straightforward and out there. Corbett doesn’t talk over or under you. He says what he means and means what he says.

Here’s a great example: Rewrite The Rules

 3. He is transparent with his projects.

I’ve seen this a couple of times now with projects started by Mr. Barr. He tells you what he is wanting to do with a project – and then he tells you how it’s going along the way.

Doesn’t that just strike you as very cool? In a blogosphere full of hucksters and hype - transparency is very nice!

Here’s an example: Million Dollar Blog Project Update 

4. Did I mention that he is prolific?

Good lord, he is everywhere, doing everything it seems. The cool thing is, he does them all well.

I am particularly impressed with the Expert Enough project. It really is “just enough to be dangerous”.

5. He likes cool hats.

I like cool hats – he likes cool hats – all is right with following Corbett Barr
