I have been on Quora since before it launched to the public. I’ve always liked the concept of asking specific and rhetorical questions and getting someone you don’t know give you an answer…or at least attempt to give an answer.Social QuestionsAsking a question in a social environment is a form of a higher level of socializing […]
What would you do if all of the social networks did away with the LIKE, +1 or Thumbs Up buttons? Would you instead take the time to make a comment to a post? Or Just keep moving on with being…well….less social?I’m not sure these buttons will ever go away, but who knows? Stranger things have happened. […]
Being in the digital marketing industry I see a LOT of social media user reports that originate from questionable sources. Having been part of the beginning of internet marketing, before social media, I have developed extreme skepticism with any accumulation of data pulled from any social networking user database.

I am sure if you are like me and have spent more than 10 minutes knee deep in social networking posts you have noticed there seems to be a huge fall-off of the volumes of posts, interaction and overall hoopla. Why? Well, I have been on the streets the past few weeks..meaning I have been talking […]

My first question to them is usually…where did you hear about the place?I quit counting after 125 of the emails, texts and Google+ Chats I have had in the past month where I have […]
As most of you know I have been on the Google+..or Plus…since before it was launched to the public. It was, and still has the potential to be, the best product Google has ever launched.However, it seems Google does not seem to realize this.Studying Google+It took sometime…over three months to be exact…for me to run down every rabbit […]
You can throw a dart at your monitor showing Google Search results and hit a Google+ post (which I recommend you don’t do that unless you have a virtual dart).
