Social media

I just came across If You’ve Got Social Media Fatigue, UR DOIN IT WRONG and I can see why that post would go viral. It's self affirming for all the people who think that they are doing it right. Read more »

Achim Muellers posted 'The downside of instant gratification', and I felt the need to add to what he wrote - specifically building on this part: Read more »

A recent experience with trying to rent a car in Beloit, Wisconsin had me communicating with two companies - most of the details can be read here. Read more »

In What Do People Trust Most Among Social Media? Blogs, Facebook or Twitter?, it looks like people are meandering down the path of asking the wrong questions.
