The nearly complete social of ME
I'm excited to see this interactive resource from +The New York Times on where you can find open beaches down the shore in New Jersey! Yes, there are many parts of the state that are still horribly battered from SuperStorm Sandy last year, but for the...
At BookExpo America today in NYC and did a talk on how to market and promote a book in Google+ using Hangout on Air. Almost every single person in the audience is using the platform. Blew me away. The publishing, book and author industries (well, the...
Thank you +Comcastcares Comcast for getting some free WiFi down the Jersey Shore this Memorial Day weekend!! It helps to share photos and memories from the greatest vacation spot ever - the Jersey Shore!! Now we just need to find a way to get more bathrooms...
I loved +Chris Abraham's article on how enemies, "unfollowers" and churn can be a GOOD thing in social media. Pretty much if you are sitting on the fence and trying to be all things to all people and make everyone happy - you might want to rethink your...
AMAZING! +Hera Hub was at both +Geek Girl Camp San Diego and Social Media Day San Diego #smdaysd -- HELLO! A co-working space for women!! Sadly I was running around so much at both events I didn't get a chance to chat with anyone from Hera Hub. Maybe...
Instagram now has video. As soon as I can get my phone to behave I'm trying this out.... Ok, the added perks and features we love (well, I do anyhow) of Instagram make this a serious contender to Vine. Of course only 0.0001% of Internet users currently...
So, what's more important to your businesses bottom line - followers or profits? (Personally I'd rather the $$$ in my bank account.) This weekend at Geek Girl Camp & Social Media Day San Diego I helped three people "in the hallway" gain *PAYING CUSTOMERS*...
I post smart, well though out, fresh and forward thinking content full of information and knowledge on Google+ all the time (or so I'd love to think-I rant a lot too). Today, I posted a joke. Vic Gundotra, Senior Vice President at Google (second in command...
The Whole World Is in Your Pocket It breaks my heart to hear small business say they don't need a website, or an updated website, or a social presence, and/or some sort of provision for mobile. Just last week I ran across a business in Philly that was...
Bigots & zealots are boycotting Oreo because the company openly supports love of all flavors. Funny how Christians chiming in on this seem to think they are the only religion on the planet and run all the government. Not all Christians feel this way,...
It's a minor holiday in my family today. Both kids are back in school! Our little guy goes to preschool 12 months a year, but it was still a mighty fine day to see our 6th grade daughter's bus show up. All I could think this morning was ONE MORE YEAR...
Writes several amazing posts on technology and business. Get a good handful of shares and comments. Writes a post on a conversation I overheard about Apple vs. Samsung phones. Get a ton of trolls. Shares a YouTube video of twin baby girls dancing to a...
Between people that I barely know asking me for help fixing the mess they got themselves into by having their Facebook profile deleted because they broke TOS & emails from complete strangers flooding in for free help with Google+ after watching the webinar...
WHAT THE HELL? Hey, rape is good y'all... some really smart people are born as a result of it. Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee added: “I used to work for James Robison back in the 1970s, he leads a large Christian organization. He, himself, was the...
Stick a fork in me I'M DONE. For tonight anyhow. Editors really are amazing people. I now know I can't use ampersands, percent signs, dashes, single or double quotes (inappropriately) but I can use an Oxford Comma!!! They also disapprove of my overzealous...
Can't make it to #BlogHer12? Welcome to #PinHer12!! I shall make it my mission to post only AbFab references, shoe & cocktail snapshots, and possibly some really outrageous outfits (I'm not telling if they are 'good' outrageous or 'bad' outrageous). Yes,...
I wish my daughter's school would consider easing up on homework requirements. It took her no less than 4 hours a night to do all her homework - in 5th grade.For 6th grade I am anticipating as much time completing homework as she actually spent in school....
On Poverty and the Olympics Sarah Robles, a 5'10" 275 pound Olympic weightlifter, is living at the poverty level just to survive and complete in her sport. Meanwhile, Australian runner Michelle Jenneke is getting a lot more 'screen time' due to her unique...
This is by far the best BlogHer '12 article I've seen written. The thing is, ALL I can find is people interested in parties and not the conference. I'm looking to connect with people that aren't looking for party invites (I got a few invites to parties...
This is by far the best review of ANYTHING I've ever read. The animated GIFS just make it so much better. I've read all three books (hey, I was on Vicodin after my surgery...) just so I could see if there were any redeeming plot pieces. No there weren't....
I've been spending more time in LinkedIn lately... it seems they have woken up quite a bit in the last few months as far as adding usable features. One of my favorites so far is "Recommendations". It's a great social signal that (I hope) will be used...
Here are a few tricks and ideas on how to optimize your Google+ profile. Introduction text, links, and 'about me' are covered! The website featured in this screencast is : http://eskimon.wordpress.com/2011/07/21/a-useful-networking-tip-for-google-plus/ Be...
Companies and brands that understand women use technology to make their lives - and the lives of those they care for - easier will excel in today's highly competitive digital business landscape. From the +Business Insider article: "The perception that...
I've looked over my production calendar for June-August and could shimmy in one more client project. I thought I'd put that here since I get about 20 messages a day (every day) for help with digital strategies and tactics, so now I'm saying here's a spot...
Local / regional friends are always asking me where the next 'event' is in the NYC/Philly/NJ area... here you go! (PS - If you are only looking for 'blogger' conferences, break out of the rut and go to a business event where the big players - and money...
