Too Much News to Sum up in a Headline

12.07.2016 by Maggie McGary // 2 Comments

Whew, it’s been a busy few months…or few years, really. If you read my last post, I was–yet again–on the hunt for my forever career. Despite that bleak-sounding description of the job search process, I had a whirlwind few months of freelancing, doing a contract gig at the most fun office ever, interviewing for some great jobs […]

5 Reasons Nonprofits Have an Advantage When it Comes to Social Media

10.04.2016 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

If you read this blog, you already know I have a tendency to skew kind of negative on things. Lol. Ok, so yes, maybe I’m stating that a bit more mildly than is precisely accurate but whatever…my point is that, people often accuse me of being too negative. I personally just call it being a […]

Community Un-Managing Cheat Sheet, 2016 Edition

09.13.2016 by Maggie McGary // 1 Comment

  About three and a half years ago, I wrote a post called Community Un-Managing: Cheat Sheet for Community Managers and Tips for Companies, because, while most companies have processes and procedures for employees who leave, at that time, at least, few had procedures in place to extricate employees from company social media sites when […]

Social Media Tools and Resources for Social Learning

05.21.2016 by Maggie McGary // 1 Comment

This past week I, together with my friend Shari Rager from American Medical Writers Association, did a session at Tagoras’s Learning*Technology*Design conference on designing for social learning. Of course I meant to blog about it before it happened, but we all know how that goes…so I figure better late than never. This was the session […]

Why Associations Should Be Planning Their LinkedIn Exit Strategy

Why associations should be planning their LinkedIn exit strategy

Ah, LinkedIn…where would my blogging be without your Groups feature? It’s been a few months since I’ve written about why associations shouldn’t rely on LinkedIn Groups and speculated about whether LinkedIn is in the (albeit slow) process of phasing out the groups feature, but a few recent things have ramped up my suspicions and made me think that […]

An Introvert’s Defense of Sherry Turkle

08.18.2015 by Maggie McGary // 1 Comment

Even though I didn’t attend ASAE Annual, I have actually spent a decent amount of my summer thinking about Sherry Turkle, the closing keynote speaker at Annual. Summer has generally been a time when interacting online looses some of its appeal to me–I blogged about it in 2009, and 2010, and apparently had sufficiently burned out on […]

Pros and Cons of Periscope for Associations

06.19.2015 by Maggie McGary // 1 Comment

I just returned from Association Media & Publishing’s Annual Conference, which was awesome. I learned a ton, met some great new people and enjoyed being back in the association media community. I was also lucky to hang out with cool friends like Monica Bussolati, who thought we should experiment with Meerkat and Periscope to livestream parts of […]

Social Media Measurement Resources for Associations

03.26.2015 by Maggie McGary // 1 Comment

A few months ago I did a presentation about social media analytics for associations. Then Peggy Hoffman asked if I’d come talk about it again at an ASAE Idea Swap in MD, so I spruced up the resources I’d shared a few months ago…and figure I may as well share them here as well. I […]

Are The Signs Pointing to Google+’s Demise?

08.06.2014 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

As much as I liked the concept of Google+ (or is it Google Plus? There still seems to be no consensus), I can’t say I’ve used it a ton. When it launched three years ago, I was among the many who had high hopes for the platform, wishing it would replace Facebook. When that didn’t […]
