When I was younger, I played games any chance I could get. If I couldn’t find a board game or a deck of cards, I would create games for myself to play and enjoy. At the drop of a hat, I imagined up rules, scenarios and even different worlds for my games to take place [...]
“Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes … the ones who see things differently … While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the [...]
A wise man once said …
You can’t just ask customers what they want and then try to give that to them. By the time you get it built, they’ll want something new.
That wise man was Steve Jobs and it seems that a certain Mark Zuckerberg took those words to heart because last week, Facebook went [...]
I bought two houses before I even fathomed I would have a career in real estate.
With the first house, I found an agent to represent me by haphazardly calling numbers I saw on “For Sale” signs that I drove by. The truth of the matter is that she became my agent by default. Her persistence [...]
One potato, two potato, three potato, four. Five potato, six potato, seven potato, more.
Substitute the word “potato” for “social network” and you’ve got yourself a catchy little ditty that sums up today’s social networking climate beautifully. Every time I so much as look away, it feels as though I have to look back and play [...]
Social media communicator. It’s funny to think that that phrase was not in existence a mere handful of years ago. In fact, if someone had approached me at my college graduation and said that I would soon become a social media communicator I would have laughed and looked at her as if she had four [...]
Earlier this week, I found myself sitting on the couch channel-surfing, not something I do often. I was hoping to come across something of value, when suddenly, a title of a TV show that I once watched religiously jumped out at me (no judging on the TV show ok?). It wasn’t the name of [...]
In today’s ever-changing, ever-growing, ever-present social media world, it can be really easy to talk over yourself. Or be overwhelmed by all of the clutter that hits our feeds, our walls, our email in-boxes.
Do a vanity search (i.e. plug your name into Google) and check out all of the social media platforms you’ve been on, [...]
“Sharing is caring.” While this phrase may seem trite and elicit a shake of the head and a roll of the eyes, its message is true and could not be more valuable when it comes to the social networking realm. Sharing shows me, your audience, your network, your friend and your client, that you care. [...]
The moment we’ve all been waiting for is finally here! Facebook has been updated! OK, I’m clearly kidding but I had to throw that joke out there sometime (I’ve been wanting to for months). As I’ve said before, Facebook, the social networking giant, continues to update their platform at a rate that never ceases to [...]
