When you get into a habit of doing the same thing over and over, you dig a rut deeper and deeper and eventually you hit a wall. You might not hit the wall until your rut is so deep that you hit the Great Wall of China, but you will hit a wall.With the changes in Social Media happening daily, you can no longer do the same thing you were 6 months ago. If you are, your results will plateau. The steady climb you may have been seeing over the past 3 weeks may abruptly stop or slow to minimal nu... Read Full Story

It started with a simple craving, and a plead for someone to eat a Jimmy John's Pepe for me. This craving turned into a $42+ sandwich.For some unknown reason, Jimmy John's has not allowed franchises in the Phoenix area yet. Not having a JJ's nearby causes problems for anyone who loves their deliciousness. The yummy warm bread, the sauce, the cucumbers, the...Wait! I digress.Knowing that someone out in Twitterville would help me out, I put my precious desire in the Twitter gods... Read Full Story
All the statistics that have came out recently have shown that increase in Facebook users 35 and older. No big deal. I just keep my profile security pretty tight. It is hard for people to find me. Usually, I have to request for someone to be my friend.The other night I was at a gift exchange with some ladies from church. It was a lot of fun. But at one point, the hostess pull out the camera, snapped a few pictures and the yelled "I'm tagging you all on my Facebook."I guess... Read Full Story
Facebook √, MySpace √, Twitter √, YouTube √, CampusBuddy __Wait! What on earth is CampusBuddy?Good Question.Campusbuddy.com is a partnership between Campus Buddy Inc and Facebook. In October 2008, the two announced their partnership to help students choose classes and meet classmates.Now almost 6 months later I come across it. I did some searching to see what other universities are doing with it. The first few search are of universities I have friends/tweeps working for.Quick run down ... Read Full Story
So I should have written this a week ago, but at least I'm writing it.Last Sunday, I was able to go see the Lakers play. Since about 7th grade I have loved the Lakers. Not sure why. Maybe it was because St. Louis decided to have every other sports team BUT a basketball one!!! (No, I'm not bitter).I would have loved to see the Lakers play in L.A., but beggars can't be choosers. The Lakers were in town playing the Suns. Unfortunately, until this past Tuesday I didn't own an... Read Full Story
How do you try and host breakfast for all of your friends? I mean ALL of your friends. It's simple really. You make pancakes Saturday March 7th at 10:30am EST and you post them all over social networks (Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, Blogs and Beyond).It started by just my small breakfast club of 4 people. I was responsible for making blueberry pancakes last Sunday, but I couldn't figure out how to get the rest of my friends involved. Yes, my friends extend past the few people here ... Read Full Story
A couple nights ago, I was watching television, and it seemed like every commercial break the Boost Mobile Unwronged Commercial would air. If you haven’t seen the commercial yet, please watch it…According to Mobile Marketer, 180LA became the Advertising Agency for Boost in May of 2008. It is said that the new campaign “employs humor to reposition Boost as a carrier that has no unpleasant surprises.”Boost who used to typically target the younger, hipper market that is into extreme sporting e...

Who would have thought the one class that my professor never taught would have been the most helpful class. My Introduction to New Media class my third semester of college. Yes New Media a.k.a. Web 2.0.What I should have learned: CSS, Web Design, HTML and much much more. Where does this come into play, you ask? Welcome to my new job (I did reference this job in my last post). So what's the solution? Ask lots of questions, read lots of other people's code, and trial and error. Th... Read Full Story
It's been a while since I blogged. I know I know I need to do a better job at keeping up with this.I've been quite busy the past few weeks. I've been learned CSS and more HTML coding, learning the ins and outs of MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Zinch and all my other choices for Social Media. Who would have known so much was out there?But there's more going on still beside Social Media for me. There was the PF Chang's Rock 'n' Roll Marathon where I helped ... Read Full Story
