Learning To Target Your Audience By Example.
There’s something to be said about trying new things. For me, I’ve been accustomed to working from behind the marketing realmn of it all. I have a marketing degree and am focused on pushing information out. But with me now being a social media strategist at Stage Two Consulting, I’m finding myself thrust into a […]
Twitter Lists Have Finally Arrived For All: Big Ego Boost Or Real Value?
I guess I was one of the lucky ones. It seemed that once Twitter lists rolled out for one of the first small percentage of Twitter users, I got selected as one of them. I thought Twitter lists were pretty cool, but outdated because other applications like Tweetdeck, Seesmic Desktop and Brizzly had already come […]
How Myspace Is Reinventing Itself With Secret Concerts.
This past Wednesday, I was invited to what appeared to be a “secret concert” organized by the Myspace social network. Held at the Regency Theater in San Francisco, this concert series was perhaps the first time I heard something cool coming out of Myspace. Yes, I’ve heard that Myspace has become pretty much the de […]
Why Twitter Is Taking Over My Blog (And Why I Don’t Like It).
Is this analogy true or false? Blogs are to bloggers as Twitter is to bloggers. I would say no – this is false. This isn’t true. If you’re a Twitter user, this does not automatically make you a blogger. I have been guilty of making it seem like it is, but that’s probably because I’ve […]

I had an interesting talk with my friend Drew Olanoff last Tuesday and he told me about his new idea for raising money to help fight cancer. In case you don’t know Drew, he’s the mastermind behind the ever-popular and perhaps one of the most charitable events in the tech industry and it’s all going […]

It was inevitable. Someone was just going to put it together. Well someone did. Laura Fitton, author of the incredible book Twitter for Dummies has put together an incredible directory that lets the Twitter community “discover and share tools and services that make Twitter valuable”. No longer are you stuck with simply sitting there and wondering […]
Keeping An Eye Out For Those Tricky Twitter Spammers.
After reading a post on Los Angeles blog, lalawag, I thought it would be insightful to put something together myself. A while back I wrote a post commenting on how the number of people following you on Twitter were rather irrelevant and I still stand by it – although everyone’s ego is always getting the […]
Testing The Theory That Social Media Isn’t A “Field”.
Last Thursday, at an event called Lunch for Good, I was talking to Susan Tenby who informed me about an interesting debate she was having with someone on Twitter where the core issue being discussed was whether or not social media, in all its glory, actually constituted being considered a “field”. Is it more than […]
