As I floated around the blogosphere this morning, enjoying my coffee, commenting on a few articles, tweeting, cleaning out my inbox, you know…. my usual morning rituals, I found that a particular site I left a comment on tried to add me to their email list just because I left a comment. Bad move in my eyes.
I left a couple of comments on a site that I hadn’t visited in a while. I have cut way back on my…
In today’s Social Media Monday Episode, Mike goes through a great review of both Hootsuite and Tweetdeck, which are 2 great Twitter apps. The biggest difference is Hootsuite is a web app, and Tweetdeck is a desktop app.
I have always been a big fan of Tweetdeck, at least over the last 2 years. In the last few weeks I have been testing Hootsuite, and I do like it better since the last update. I prefer an app that runs…
So many of us English speaking and writing bloggers neglect to realize that international customers may not use English as a first language, and we are missing out on international sales for our eBooks because they are not translated. So, why wouldn’t we want to capitalize on sales by simply getting a translation of our information products? I know I would.
Demographics:

As I stated two weeks ago in my Social Media Monday post, I am using Twitter less than I used to. This was brought on by my frustrations due to seeing so much of the fail whale 2 weeks ago. I use Tweetdeck to manage my tweets (I use tweetspinner to manage my followers which has helped me to get 4k targeted followers in just 6 weeks), and have decided to use it in batches instead of leaving it open…

A couple of years ago, I was probably active on 20+ social networks. I was addicted to wasting time! Even though I wasted a lot of time, I also learned from my experiences.
Twitter:
This is, and has been, my favorite place for networking. Even though it has it’s problems at times I still…
Since it is Fathers day weekend in the blogosphere, and there are some great “lists” I have been included on this week, I thought I would put one out thanking some bloggers I know and wishing them a happy Fathers Day! Every person on this list has been a huge inspiration and influence in my life and blogging career.
Since I have made 2 “ugly” lists this week, I thought it would be great to put out a positive list!…
Don’t you ever get that feeling that there is a time and place for war? I am making it clear right NOW, I am declaring war! No, I am not talking about making World War III, but war on business. I have sat on the sidelines for entirely too long, quietly earning a living through selling my products. No more, I am getting in the fight, starting NOW!.
Ready For Battle:
As I stated I have quietly sat back watching,…
