All is well with me, just super-busy for the last two months. Spending lots of time writing blogs and Facebook updates for clients, no time for my own! Just wanted to let you all know that I’m alive, just haven’t had time to post anything significant on here. I do post on Twitter at least once a day, so if you miss me, make sure to connect with me on there! 
Tweet I’ve been writing this blog since 2004, and there are lots of older posts that don’t get much love, because no one knows about them! So….I made a new category: Flashback Friday. Starting today and every Friday from now on, I’ll be featuring a group of older posts about a specific topic. For the…
Tweet I recently partnered up with Debra from Familylicious Reviews to offer one of her readers a free Twitter Background design by yours truly! If you aren’t already familiar with Familylicious, it is a blog that does product reviews and giveaways. Do you like entering contests online to win free stuff? If so, you should definitely…
Tweet When the Twitter lists feature was introduced, I was super-excited. Before that day, I would use the search feature and save a column on Hootsuite. (Actually, I was using Tweetdeck at the time, but that’s a useless bit of info.) So anyway, Twitter lists were introduced last year, and are limited to 500 twitter…
I was so honored to be asked to be a guest on the Striker Corbin Motivational Program on BlogTalkRadio.com. In the hour that we had, we spoke about the Save Becky story which led to how I first got involved with Social Media. We discussed Facebook, Twitter and how they work together and I also gave some tips for people tweeting for the first time as a business or on your own page. If you missed the show, you can listen to it in it’s entirety below.
Tweet There is this thing….it is an unwritten rule of law between women. If one girl is interested in a guy, no other friends are to approach him, talk to him, make a move on him, etc. Most respectable women abide by this cardinal rule. Others, just simply don’t seem to care. It wasn’t until…
Tweet It’s been a crazy year and although a *few* good things happened, I am more than happy to say goodbye to 2009. In no particular order, here are 25 things that I did this year: Suddenly lost the love of my life & best friend Met thousands of new friends Said a eulogy Got…
Tweet There are a lot of different third-party applications that claim to make your Twitter experience even better. One has certainly come in more handy than others for me, and that is Refollow. I have found with the more followers I get on Twitter, it becomes a lot more tedious to keep up. Once I…
Tweet After I reached a certain number of followers on Twitter, I started to use SocialOomph‘s Auto-DM tool. I now send this direct message to all new followers: “Hi! Thanks for following. Are you as twaddicted as me? You can read my story at <blog link>. What’s your story?#stinkytweet“ There are many reasons to send…
Tweet I attended my second #LITweetup last night. It was held at Croxley Ales in Farmingdale. It is so nice to be in the company of other twaddicts. Every person had some sort of wireless device in front of them, whether it be laptop, netbook, Blackberry or iPhone. There were several videos taken by tweeps…
Tweet One could say that I am celebrity obsessed. I read all the magazines. I peruse all the gossip sites. I watch all the shows. This obsession with celebrity began early. There was that time that I was 12 and was in the Caribbean on vacation with my parents and I saw Jason Priestley. If…
Tweet I just came from seeing my parents and my Uncle and Cousin who were visiting for the weekend. I showed them my blog and we started discussing Social Media and why I would want to “tell the whole world all my business”. My father doesn’t understand why I want to “wear my heart on…
Tweet There are many reasons why I choose to follow people on Twitter. And there are many more reasons why I won’t. I used to auto-follow anyone who followed me, and quickly decided to start being more picky, when my stream was filled with tweets from people that commit the following no-nos: 1. You have…
Tweet Instead of doing individual tweets this week, I decided to just make a big list and put it on my blog. At first it was small, but once I started thinking about all the tweeps I love, it was growing by leaps and bounds! I really enjoy all my tweeps, but these 200 (in…
Tweet This blog post has been long overdue. My apologies. A lot has happened since my last post. Well there were two major happenings. My parents’ new puppy, Cali and my new apartment! Now I hope you understand why I haven’t written. I’ve been very busy! A new chapter for the folks : Cali I…
Tweet Save Becky has become a world-wide sensation. Since it’s inception on Sunday, Feb 8th, it’s had over 2,500 hits from 10 different countries: United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, Austria, Singapore, Costa Rica, Germany, Trinidad and Tobago and Argentina. Apparently, the word is spreading, and I have received e-mails from all walks of life. …
Tweet So, apparently, Facebook and Twitter are good promotional tools for a website. I received a lot of e-mails today, most good, some not so good. I guess that’s expected. If you don’t want to donate money, then don’t, but you don’t have to send me a nasty e-mail. My mother always taught me that…
