24 April 2012

0 Comments

Digital Trends wrote a fantastic review of the introduction of Klout’s Squad Pages last week (here), and in that review they alluded to a possible issue with how users were ranked. Yet there are some unresolved issues, too. While Klout has not officially revealed what data that goes into its ranking algorithm, it’s evident that [...]

This week Klout launched what they call their “Squad” Pages for Brands. (Great overview on it and how very different they are from, say Facebook Pages, here). Anyway, first one launched with Red Bull. At some point this week, it popped up on my Klout page, so added it as a Topic of Influence. One thing [...]

I Will Never, Ever Buy Another GM Vehicle…

18 February 2012

Those were the words I told Desiree in GM’s Legal Department Thursday. And I mean it, with a vengeance. You see, GM is reporting record profits, yet is still relying on legal maneuvering to continue not to honor the class action lawsuit by approximately 150,000 Saturn Vue and Ion owners (2003-2005) whose vehicles had or [...]

Subtitle: What NOT To Do. If you don’t know the name yet, you should. Now would be a great time, if for no other reason than helping this post make some kind of sense. A good overview is here, courtesy of BusinessInsider.com. You see, he’s gone viral, and not at all in a good way. [...]

A Social Media Milestone…

This weekend marked a social media milestone for me: impersonation. Granted, they weren’t very good, nor malicious, but it was impersonation nonetheless. And replied to a twitter follower of mine, who alerted me. Here’s the first, which has already been suspended.   And here’s the second. Fully copied not only pic, but my profile as well. [...]

For years, even before starting my own business, I’d been invited to and even visited different business networking groups. And as a disclaimer, I will readily admit that I have not been to all types, and that some groups [...]
