Should Associations Have a “Guru” Track?

01.28.2015 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

My husband excitedly forwarded this article to me this morning, exclaiming “a career track for you!” He’s referring to the fact that I’ve always said–and continue to say–that I intend to somehow keep moving up the career and salary ladder but that I have no desire to manage people. Ever. He, and others, have always […]

Where Can Blogging Take You?

01.18.2015 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

Long time, no see, Mizz Information readers! Another year, another bout of blog burnout…what else is new, right? I wrote that post in 2011 and this one just a few months ago, and, I’d imagine, if I’m still blogging a year or five years from now, I’ll continue to grapple with blogging just as others […]

Digital Cleanup Plan for a Fresh New Year

12.22.2014 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

Here we are again at the end of another year. While this year has been a great one in some ways, overall I can’t say I’m sad to say goodbye to 2014. Suffice it to say that it will go down in my personal history as the year I learned some sad truths about people […]

Really, Internet? Is This What Social Media Has Become?

11.05.2014 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

Maybe it’s just because the leaves are falling off the trees and it now gets dark at 5:30 pm and I’m depressed that winter’s almost here. Maybe it’s run-of-the-mill social media fatigue. Maybe it’s because I finally dropped my iPhone one too many times yesterday and the screen finally shattered. All I know is that […]

Making Sense of Social Media Analytics

10.24.2014 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

Whew, it’s been a busy few weeks. At the beginning of October, I had the pleasure of finally going to (or at least *near*) Boston for the first time in my (long) life to present about social media analytics at NESAE’s Technology Conference. It’s a topic that I think is really important for associations, yet also […]

5 Trends Impacting Association Social Media in 2014

09.29.2014 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

Even though I’m not working in the association space right now, I still have strong emotional ties to the association world and am happy when I have a chance to step back into that world. Last Friday I had one of those chances, moderating a panel about association social media at an Association Trends Live […]

Is SSL Essential for SEO?

09.23.2014 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

With so much recent press about huge-scale data breaches (Target, Home Depot, Healthcare.gov, etc), cybersecurity is–or should be–a priority for any online business. But what about people like me who host websites or blogs that don’t sell anything or capture any data? On the surface, it would seem like we don’t need to worry about […]

Social Media Sharing Gone Wrong–The White House is Compromising Users’ Privacy

07.24.2014 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

If people were outraged about Facebook’s ethics violation when they conducted psychological experiments on unsuspecting and unconsenting users, I imagine they’ll be equally unhappy to learn about a new, persistent tracking tool that’s being used to spy on users of millions websites. Aside from this Mashable post and a Forbes article, though, I’m not seeing […]

Who’s Responsible for the Facebook Research Scandal? An Association Journal

06.30.2014 by Maggie McGary // 1 Comment

By now, you’ve undoubtedly read about the fact that Facebook is using us all as lab rats. Shocker, right? That’s just Facebook for you, just one more “oops” in the never-ending parade of privacy breaches. But esteemed scientific professional societies know better, right? Well, sadly, it appears that, at least in this case, they do […]

If you want to see our five quick tips for improving your website in five minutes, you’re in luck–here’s the link to our presentation. […]
