As someone with over 500 friends on Facebook (I have met them all except for about 5) this is a hilarious satire on how it would work in real life. Just watch and laugh as I did…
There are many uses for Flickr photos, from presentations to pure entertainment. Flickr exists to allow people overwhelmed with the sheer number of photos they take or videos they shoot to better manage all that content. Part of their solution is to make the process of organizing photos or videos collaborative. In Flickr, friends, family, and other contacts can be given permission to organize your stuff, not …
Well, no excuse as I am not going to the Mass to Grass conference put on by the CMA, however here is a great “word of mouth” marketing tactic that I found on Michael Seaton’s blog done by Jay Moonah. Is this preaching by example?
This is going to be my shortest post yet, and it is quite simple. To really help your clients and understand their business issues and opportunities, be one with them. Sit in meetings and always say how would “we” handle this or what should “we” do next? Such a simple concept, yet so powerful.

So it seems kind of silly to want to “listen” to your favorite Youtube videos, but there are those times that the humor can be distilled by the audio only. Or perhaps you want to steal (or borrow) the soundtrack of some crazy musical antics such as this (imagine that one playing as you deliver a PowerPoint presentation to an executive team). …
So I am starting to figure out this Twitter phenomenon, and to their credit, it is kind of cool.
