I’ve always been very talkative. Maybe it’s because I’m a social learner. Talking through things helps me learn. Maybe it’s because I like the sound of my own voice, who knows.
I’ve talked written about the importance of learning to listen.This is a very important lesson to learn as an organization. As an […]
Garrett Rogers over at zdnet felt the new Google Reader, notes functionality was a possible threat to Twitter. I don’t totally agree with that. It hurts Twitter only because it helps FriendFeed so much. This feature will mostly challenge bookmarking sites like del.icio.us and Diigo.
While it doesn’t completely replace how I use […]
Conversation Matter: Bridging the Social Media Gap
Last month Michael Brito contacted me about a project he was getting ready to launch. I’d met Michael at a conference last year, he had left HP right before I started working there. He went to Yahoo and now is at Intel. Michael’s idea was to […]
Some of you may be thinking that I’m taking SEO waaaaaay to far. And maybe I am but most of you using Gmail will understand what I’m talking about.

If you are using Google Reader the “share” feature is a […]

So are blogs still relevant? (I bet you can […]
Social Media Case Study: Blatantly Advertising … And Getting Away With It | Social Media Explorer
As it turns out, H&R Block not only gets the outreach portion of it, but has figured out a way to be 100-percent, totally marketing/advertising to people using social media tools and somehow pull it off. No, I wasn’t sure […]
I have a confession. I have a really irrational fear and it has to do with a piece of technology. I hate fax.
I hate faxing. There, I said it. I feel much better. I can never tell when it goes through. Did I place the paper the right way? Did my fax get picked […]
