As part of my 2011 effort to read at least one book per week on average, I finished another book yesterday, “Guerrilla Social Media Marketing” by Jay Conrad Levinson and Shane Gibson. Shane Gibson has actually been a guest twice on Social Media Edge, our BlogTalkRadio show, and he is also the co-author of “Sociable”, which [...]

Recently on this blog, I talked about how people sometimes misunderstand the nature of certain websites in this post. Facebook and Google are sort of like apples and oranges: there is no way to directly compare them. Now, it seems some people are even willing to blame Facebook for the downturn in the economy.

Sorry for the dramatic headline, but I figured it might not hurt to use the same tactic that I’ve seen others employ with regard to my email inbox.

We’ve all dealt with frustrating phone systems when we’re trying to accomplish something with a bank, large corporation, customer service issue, and more.

Thanksgiving is the time of year when I thank God for the blessings he has bestowed upon me and my family, but I typically find myself in a more reflective mood as years end (and begin, of course). With that in mind, I wanted to take a minute to reflect on 2010 and what it [...]

When I was a kid, my grandfather used to pick me up from school most days, and we would hang out all afternoon until my mom came to pick me up from his house. He would usually make me some macaroni and cheese, or some (rather amazing) home-style fries. While we were together, we’d watch [...]

Earlier today on Social Media Edge (our long-running BlogTalkRadio show), we were discussing the importance of connecting “in real life” with our online friends.
