How do you silence the socially literate?

A simple observation from when I was at last night’s MashMeet DC Remix event held at Ogilvy PR’s office in downtown DC… I understand that some of these events often times allow companies to demonstrate their products to try and reach out to investors and those sought-after early adopters (which I’m trying ever so much […]

My results of a social experiment

So as many (or at least some) of you know, I recently headed down to New Orleans for the Allstate BCS Sugar Bowl at the Superdome. Seeing that this was going to be perhaps a once-in-a-lifetime chance, I thought I’d share this moment with as many people as I could, but obviously within limits. So […]

NY Times: How lose your job when you’re not on the job

I think I may have seen a story about this earlier – in fact, probably even blogged about it, but this is quite invasive, if you ask me. The New York Times has an article on their website about how companies are now “stalking” you away from the office so that it’ll monitor your online […]

Seesmic: The New YouTube?

Thanks go out to my friend, Peter Corbett, of iStrategyLabs for twittering about this latest and greatest thing that should be all the rage in the near future. I haven’t personally tried it, but the concept seems to be a little more personal than that of YouTube and have a different course. This new social […]

Defining the role of a Web Manager

What is a Web Manager? Probably also known as an eMarketing Manager, Interactive Marketing Manager, or perhaps anything else that makes it seem Internet savvy, this client-based position is rather open-ended, in my opinion. First of all, in the beginning days of the Internet, it would seem that a web manager would be responsible for […]

Google set to unveil new social networking site

Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t Google already have a social networking site? Is that was Orkut is all about? The Associated Press, among others, reports today that Google is set to unveil their new social networking site that will compete with the 800 lb. gorillas, MySpace and Facebook, later this week. The name […]

Phishing Scam Alert: Monster Job Seeker Tool = BOGUS

If you’ve received an e-mail from what appears to be from Monster.com, be careful that you’re not falling for a phishing scam and compromise your account. I received an e-mail from Monster.com from an account I used a long time ago and it asked me to download the latest Job Seeker Tool to help prevent […]

Does Time-Sensitive Blogging Exist?

I think to a certain degree that certain things need to be blogged in an instant, but I want to learn is whether or not regular issues that are reported, like the latest tech gadgets, political news, tv reviews, etc. are all things that need to be reported once they occur or would it be […]

Blogger vs. WordPress

As you may have noticed, I changed my blog a little bit…the only main difference is that I’ve transitioned my blog away from Blogger to WordPress. Why? Well there seems to be some more scalability and features that can be used on WordPress as opposed to Blogger. I’ve used both Blogger and WordPress on two […]

“Blogging” Proliferation…Introducing “Smoke”-Blogging…

Okay, so there’s no such thing as “smoke” blogging, but I thought I’d create it just to prove a point. With the wide distribution of wireless and wired devices that can be connected with the Internet, it’s absolutely fascinating that there are perhaps millions (if not billions) of people who are jotting their thoughts online […]
