21st Century Communication Strategies for Associations: Integrating Video, Social Media, and The Next Thing

07.06.2018 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

Happy summer! Hope yours is going better than mine so far. : / A few weeks ago, I led a DC-area Idea Swap about 21st century communication strategies for associations, so figured I’d repurpose it here for those of you not in the DC area. I hate powerpoint so figured I’d try something new–Wakelet–to curate […]

06.13.2018 by Maggie McGary // 2 Comments

Ah Facebook…always looking for new/better ways to be transparent and to protect our security. That’s why they’ve implemented this…oh, sorry, that’s not it–that’s just the billionth time they “accidentally” changed users’ sharing settings to public. Last week. But they’re sorry, obvi, because they a whole commercial promising that they’re going to do better to protect […]

Mental health stigma goes double for older people–and why we need to fix that

05.11.2018 by Maggie McGary // 6 Comments

Remember that time last summer that I declared that I was done blogging about social media and was pivoting to writing about mental health? Or how almost exactly a year ago I  wrote about mental health stigma and how it seems to be much worse for older people than younger ones? And then I proceed […]

10 years of Mizz Information…and 10 free or cheap digital marketing tools

03.21.2018 by Maggie McGary // 3 Comments

Well, I somehow managed to miss this blog’s 10 year anniversary on February 24. Not that anyone actually cares about this other than me, but still…10 years is a LONG TIME for a commitment-phobe like me : ) Looking back at my first post I have to say that I’ve never really stopped to think about […]

It’s been a minute since I’ve written about my all-time favorite topic: online community for associations. That doesn’t mean I haven’t been thinking (aka obsessing) about it though…for better or for worse, depending which way you look at that 🙂 Even though I’ve recently switched over to the “dark side” (although it’s the brightest dark […]

10 Years. 524 Movies. In the Theater.

How can it be that 10 years have sped by, just like that? If you read this blog, you know I’m obsessed with movies–going to the movies, in particular. I started doing a blog recap of movies I saw in the theater in 2008 and, unlike just about every other thing in my life, have […]
