Twitter Is…
Since Twitter is the current social media darling, I thought I’d record a few thoughts I’ve had about one of my favorite online tools. I’ve had the privilege of using Twitter for two years, and each and every person I’ve followed or had follow me along the way has taught me something new. So [...]
Android Apps – Suggestions
Ok, I’m getting antsy for a few good apps that I need or would like on my G1 Android phone. I’m betting we’ll see some interesting new apps hit the Android Market in January when Google adds the ability to charge for an application. I’d also like to make a few suggestions for some [...]
Why Google’s Android Simply Rocks
There are dozens hundreds user-interface or aesthetic reasons that I could list off about the T-Mobile G1 which runs Google’s Android. However, it’s the functionality that has really sealed the deal for me.
The form factor and the ability to quickly add such a wide variety of applications to the device really makes it more [...]
Android Developers! Here’s a phone-load of free ideas
Yeah, I’m a little excited while I sit and wait for my T-Mobile G1 to be delivered. During this waiting period that nearly every geek worth their weight in Apple will experience, I’ve been reading reviews, opinions, development docs, looking up existing applications and so on.

T-Mobile 3G: When?

Sure, I’ve got the plan that [...]
Twitter T-Mobile Issue was Technical
Late last week, there seemed to be a problem developing between Twitter and T-Mobile for both their customers. It was reported over at Get Satisfaction that T-Mobile Shuts Down Twitter Service for Good? – with a *TON* of Twitter/T-Mobile users jumping on and adding to the confusion.
This morning, Twitter posted on their blog that the [...]
Social media and the corporate perception
I’ve been talking with a number of people in differing areas of companies while drumming up consulting or contract gigs, and something is becoming very apparent. While there is a huge amount of misunderstanding regarding social media, there is also a growing interest in online professional networking.
What intrigues me is how the growing interest [...]
Is blogging normalizing?
Shel Israel makes the point that blogging is normalizing, and I think he’s right on the mark here. The discussion among several bloggers is that blogging is “cooling off”, or becoming less popular. It may be true, but Shell posits the idea that there are additional social media tools and services that people are migrating [...]
