Social Media: Core vs. Manufactured Self
The manufactured self and core self are not mutually exclusive; one actually cannot live without the other, but one is visceral and innate and the other highly monitored and selective. It’s sort of like Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. One is in control; the outwardly respected and accepted doctor while the other is all raw emotions (negative ones mind you but still). That’s the same with us and how we share online or how we don’t share.
Lexie Kier and I were chatting over coffee this past weekend when the topic of google and privacy came up. Foursquare’s Radar feature came into the mix and we wondered if people would ever be ok with full disclosure. We both instantly said no.
We are not comfortable with that idea yet; we still need to monitor our manufactured, outward selves and protect our core. So then what about all those social apps? Millions use them so we must be ok with it. Well, not exactly. There’s a spectrum. So lexie and I mapped it out. What apps cater to the manufactured self and which to the core?
This is where we ended up.
I think this would be really cool research to see how each uses different social apps. Some who have Twitter set to private are probably way to the left while others on Twitter are completely to the right. I like where this is headed though.

OPINION – Europe has the chance to stop ACTA in its tracks
I wish government and proponents of bills like SOPA, PIPA & ACTA realized those of us opposed to them aren’t pro-pirating or pro-counterfeiting, we’re just opposed to any governing body having the ability to wield the power to shut any company, organization or individual down without due process and without transparency. Is that really so hard to understand?
This is a great video and a must watch. We can learn how to multitask and social media tools can increases our ability to learn - despite what everyone says.

Today is my five-year bloggiversary. I launched this blog right after I left my job as the head of New Media for a small consulting agency. It was my first job in this space and the beginning of a long and wonderful journey. This blog has been the catalyst – … Continue reading
I know for most of you the last four weeks have been a total whirlwind. With that in mind, and because it’s Friday, I wanted to highlight 10 posts I’ve written over the last 4 weeks that I thought you shouldn’t miss. If you’ve seen these all then you can … Continue reading
Just like last year, I’m bringing you the Top 10 posts of the year. I don’t do this (just) as a way to promote my old content and bring to your attention something you might have missed. I share these with you because I learn something from this kind of … Continue reading
You probably missed this little dust-up while you were still recovering from your holiday revelry. Jeremiah Owyang wrote a post – a very insightful post IMO – about the change happening in tech blogging. (If you already read all of this yesterday you can move along.) Of course @jowyang used … Continue reading
Last year I did a fun little post (fun for me at least) about the Top 10 posts from 2010. The trick was that the posts had to be written last year, so naturally the weight would be skewed towards posts written earlier in the year. I choose posts that … Continue reading

I have just over a week left of “National Just Write Month” and I was sitting here trying to plan out the rest of my posts. I’ve been able to come up with a few ideas but nothing that I’m super excited about. I also have a dozen ideas sitting … Continue reading
We’re in the home stretch now. Three weeks down of writing everyday. How do you feel? I feel pretty good. This last week was kind of rough. There were multiple things going on at work that conspired to stop me, but I kept with it. I know this week isn’t … Continue reading
Along with a lot of other people, I challenged everyone to dedicate this month to the written word. I’ve even decided to publish everyday this month here on the blog. But why? Who cares? I’ve written a lot about change and more importantly how you can adjust to change and … Continue reading
November is a big month for social media, group activities.

November is NaNoWriMo, (National Novel Writing Month) and BlogHer has turned it into NaBloPoMo (National … Continue reading
