UPDATE: Twitter being attacked… http://www.cnbc.com/id/32315027 Simultaneously? I’ve been getting network fail errors all morning on Facebook and Twitter just doesn’t seem to be there. Things that make you go hmmm… Could it be the servers are getting bogged down with Obamamatons spying on us Replublitarians? [...]
First off, Main Stream Media is fast becoming…. well NOT. But that’s a different post. I was contacted 2 or 3 weeks ago by a writer for Portfolio Magazine to discuss what the MSM could do to save it self. Primarily print media. It’s a tough question, but I gave it my best shot. The writer told me she had a [...]
I have been busy most of the day with grocery shopping and buying light fixtures and stuff at Lowe’s. Not much time to sit on the computer and socially network. When I did jump on a few minutes ago I saw this tweet from @bulletblocker: Our bulletproof backpacks were made for school safety but a lot of people are buying for protection at wo [...]
Maybe I am being overly critical. But this “tweet” from @WAVY_News sounds absolutely juvenile. It reminds me of the kids during the 60’s/70’s when Elvis or the Beatles would just “look” at them and they would faint. Technorati Tags: WAVY, Twitter, tweet, main stream media, news, juvenile [...]
Say WHAT? Twitter is a fickle place. Earlier today, I posted a question and request on Twitter for information on Law Enforcement agencies that are using blogging, social networking and social media. Web 2.0 stuff. I received 4 responses, from two people whom I communicate with regularly. That’s it. Nothing. Don’t get me wrong, the [...]
Be very careful on Twitter! Like Facebook had a few weeks ago, there is a fishing scam going on on Twitter. I just received two direct messages from folks that said my “photo” or “blog post” had been located on another site. Another Twitter user followed the link to a site that produced this page. See his article here. [...]
Image via CrunchBase, source unknown Why do I use Twitter? The honest answer is that I am not sure. It’s fun. It’s annoying. It’s great to interact. It’s aggravating to interact with some. It is definitely a love/hate relationship. I was having a really bad day today. I mean really bad. I “tweeted” [...]
Over the last few weeks, we have seen another jump in the conservative, social media universe. And we seen it shunted to ground. I have also seen numerous elected officials, and candidates for elected office begin following me on Twitter. Unlike some folks, when someone follows me, I make every effort to respond in kind and send a personal note [...]
When I first joined Twitter about a year ago, it was to interact of course and to promote my blog. I grabbed every plugin I could find for WordPress and Twitter. Alex King’s Twitter Tools was used primarily to post a “tweet” everytime I posted an article on my blog. I’ve now switched to @soldoutactivist ’s PingPressF [...]
