At the end of November, I published a Dear Abby-esque post on Plaxo Pulse. In it, my friend, Paul emailed me to get my opinion on Plaxo Pulse, and I didn’t have many (okay, ANY) positive things to say about it. So, it was with great amusement that I read Michael Arrington’s post on TechCrunch […]

There’s a great article out on Clickz.com summarizing two reports recently published on mobile social media. It’s well worth reading. Unsurprisingly, the US is behind Europe when it comes to social media on phones, and teens and University-aged students are the most active users. ABI Research reports that the audience for social media on mobiles […]

With all my talk in earlier blogs about the benefit of companies employing a social media strategy, I thought that it would be a good idea to review a product that enables companies to build their own social media empire. Yesterday, I had the opportunity to see a demo of a great new product from […]

Testing Mobile Vox from my Treo 750v (unlocked)… The app is very easy to use, but I wish you could take pics not only from your phone but from your Vox and Flickr accounts too. You can’t choose size or positioning of photos or spell check either, but it’s still a great app… stable and […]

I always loved reading “Dear Abby” in the Sunday paper growing up… You know – back in the days where people actually read newspapers. I always wondered how “Abby” got her gig – quite possibly the easiest newspaper column in the world to write (and hands down, the most fun)… getting opinion questions in the […]

I’ve had a great couple of days at the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) Wireless IT & Entertainment Conference in San Francisco catching up with old friends and colleagues in wireless and learning more about where the industry is going. It all started with Tuesday’s keynote from Steve Ballmer, CEO of Microsoft, which CTIA themed […]

Was I the only one who was underwhelmed with the Facebook and RIM announcement of Facebook for BlackBerry at this morning’s CTIA keynote? Don’t get me wrong, Facebook’s co-founder, Dustin Moskovitz, presented very well, but I was hoping for more. Moskovitz didn’t mention Microsoft. Just hours after the keynote, the Wall Street Journal confirmed rumors […]

I just got back from a 2 week work + vacation trip to London. On the night I arrived (Sept 26), I was invited to a London Girl Geek Dinner in London sponsored by Astraware, a company I worked closely with while I was a consultant at Palm. The Girl Geek Dinners are increasing in […]

The social media quote of the day goes to the International Herald Tribune, who published a great article on social networking for the retired set: Technology investors and entrepreneurs, long obsessed with connecting to teenagers and 20-somethings, are starting a host of new social networking sites targeting their parents and grandparents. The sites have names […]
