The chronicle of my rise to social media stardom. Or failure. Either way, it’ll be a good read.

Last week, I was on my way to a client’s facility to snap some photos for the website. I passed what I always knew to be a Hardee’s. I remember going there recently and they had been undergoing renovations which I thought nothing of at the time. They were a little bit of an older location, seemed like it was right about time for that. When I passed …

Social Media Day 2012
This past Saturday was Social Media Day. With Tampa being recognized as one of the country’s most socially savvy cities, it only made sense for us to celebrate, and celebrate we did! We gathered in Cotanchobee park for a celebration of all things social. Local businesses like Class B had carnival games and give-aways, and we had some delicious food available by way of food trucks. Pat Donovan from …

A post that features my dorkier side. I love those posts, I have the most fun writing them and you like them, too for the most part. What I learned this week …

5 Things on Twitter That Need to Die

Twitter is a very cool thing. It makes it easy to find people with similar interests. It makes finding people you live near easier. I have met many of my current friends on Twitter. Because of Twitter, I am now on the InRetroSpection podcast. Long story short, it’s pretty cool. There is darker side, however. An annoying side. I don’t know if it’s due to ignorance or apathy, …

What Darth Vader Taught Me About Social Media

Well for starters, how do you like the new design? It’s more or less an update to the previous theme that turned out to be backwards compatible so I didn’t have to mess around with re-configuring everything. I’m testing it out for work but I like it so far. Very clean, very easy to use. *UPDATE* I was wrong. I wanted to leave the new theme up …

Blog Something 2012: Growing Your Audience
A couple of weeks ago, I posted a blog where I tried to take some blog styling tips from someone I admire, Christopher Penn. It was fun to write and it actually got some response, much to my delight. Last week, Chris challenged his readers once again to get their blogging hats on and get to it. It’s an exercise he is calling Blog Something 2012. Basically, he …

Transform Your Social Strategy and Roll Out
The Transformers, robots in disguise and basically my favorite thing ever. People keep telling me that some joker made 3 movies about them but every time I try to watch them I seem to get violently ill but I won’t go off on that tangent today. Optimus Prime, leader of the Autobots and all around good guy had several catchphrases. The one I am concerned with today is what he …

5 Things Your Social Strategy Can Learn From a Professional Wrestler
Those of you that know me personally, know that I enjoy professional wrestling. I have liked it since I was a kid and I still do. “Isn’t that stuff all fake?” Noted. So is every movie that has ever made you cry. I am also, as you know, very into social media. There is one thing I have been taught in my life over and over and that is if …

Why So Serious?
Ahoy! I am in somewhat of a goofy mood so I thought maybe we’d keep it lighter today. No need to be so serious ALL of the time, right? That being said, though a few quick business items. I purchased my business domain this week! I know last week, I said I was going with TTH Media, but it turns out that someone had that idea already so it was …
