The two sides of social media…or is it?
I think I may have fallen off of the proverbial deep-end. It seems that the more that is going on these days with the Internet stems from social media. You have new startups emerging each day and to me they seem to be all centered around user-generated content or probably more associated with social media. […]
A success story: Introducing the NEW washington.org!
So as I may have alluded to in random postings or on Twitter, I’ve been going through the past 7-8 months racking my brain about how to launch a new site. The company I work for has undergone a complete revamp of things and we’ve rebranded, changed our entire organization name, and even our website. […]
Twitter, Facebook, or Blogging: Which is a better extension of your brand?
Now before you say anything, I’m sure that all three of the above mentioned applications are probably best used in collaboration with each other to help accentuate your brand online. BUT, what I’m asking is which of the three: Twitter, Facebook, or setting up your own blog, would help create more “buzz” for your brand? […]
Get your tech foot in the door with Job Matchbox
So I was quite fortunate enough to hang out with Mr. and Mrs. Robert Neel of Job Matchbox tonight and we shot the breeze about what was going on with their site since they recently redesigned their site and a bunch of other things. As it turns out, it’s probably been a couple of months […]

It’s funny how things happen that only reinforce my decision about what to write about. We’re undergoing a redesign of our website and the new one will be awesome and have all the basic glamorous features that most new websites have – updated navigation, better organization, and throw in a back-end application – basically it’s […]
Seesmic your videos on your website
Did you know that Seesmic had jumped on the widget bandwagon? I found out through Loic’s YouTube video and of course I’d love to post more videos on Seesmic (it’s a more viral network than YouTube!), but while Seesmic is still a “private” network, let your videos propogate throughout the world by having people view […]
Abusing bloggers
I read a post on The Social Times written by Anthony LaFauce about how bloggers are being given a double standard and the ongoing debate about its legitimization. This brought back an interesting conversation that I had with my friend Juliana about how credible bloggers are. So let’s examine this for a second… In the […]
Designing on the fly
I must say that I enjoy hearing about the latest alpha and beta invites that come through Mashable. That’s how I came across this latest find: Aviary. In case you didn’t know, Aviary is a web-based application set that is specifically targeted to those “who love to create”. When I’ve explored their website, I found […]
Sprouting content throughout the web
Creating a widget has never been easier. Just today, Jeremiah Owyang listed on Twitter some great articles on Business Week that talks about the future of marketing being widgets. And why not…widgets are the new buzzword of the year. Everyone basically has a website now and is rapidly poaching on the social network as I […]
