Social Media Manager: What’s It Worth To Your Association?

10.14.2008 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

Lately there’s been a big buzz about a newly-created Manager, Social Media position at the National Association of Realtors (NAR). Judging by the number of people blogging, tweeting or otherwise talking about it, I can only imagine how many resumes are flying into NAR. Anyone who knows me knows I’m nosy, particularly about people’s salaries. […]

Will Citizen Journalism Replace Traditional Journalism?

10.09.2008 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

Last week there was a discussion on one of my listservs about “real” journalists as opposed to bloggers; e.g. only journalists are credible resources. Naturally, I disagreed. Whether or not bloggers are journalists in the traditional sense is becoming a moot point because “citizen journalists” are now considered by many to be just as respected […]

Hey–Don’t I Know You? Social Networking Makes the Leap From Online to Real Time

10.06.2008 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

Picture this: you’re in a restaurant, all cozied up with your secret honey, holding hands in the safety of your favorite “safe” meeting spot far away from the prying eyes of people you know. Suddenly a guy who looks vaguely familiar approaches your table and greets you warmly. “Hey–it’s great to actually ‘see’ you in […]

How Much Time Does It Take To Do Social Media? More Than You Think.

10.03.2008 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

Beth Kanter had a great post today about how much time it takes to do social media. I started to post a comment but ended up typing WAY too much, so I figured I’d just blog about it. Beth suggests five modules for implementing a social media plan: listening, participating, generating buzz, sharing your story […]

Think Nobody’s Reading Your Facebook Status Updates? Think Again.

10.01.2008 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

Nothing like reading an article like this one to make you realize that Big Brother is, indeed, watching your every move online. News correspondent Olivier Knox was researching a piece about the economic rescue package and paused to update his status on Facebook: “Olivier just counted, and President Bush has pushed the bailout in 12 […]

Apparently Martha Stewart has decided that blogging is a good thing, because she has jumped into the blogosphere with The Martha Blog: Up Close & Personal. Ever the marketing whiz, she is having a blog contest–add your blog to the comment section of her blog and she will check it out and, if you’re chosen […]

I Give Up–Sprint’s Samsung Instinct Sucks

09.21.2008 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

I’ve really tried hard these past three days to be patient and learn to love my new Samsung Instinct. What’s not to love, right? The phone supposedly kicks the iPhone’s ass–faster download times, voice to action, more memory for the price, etc. etc. According to Sprint’s own ads, of course. This video tells a different […]

Once it’s out there, it’s out there

09.14.2008 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

If I knew how to make a video, this would be a video post. Since I don’t, use your imagination: Pan to a kitchen where a guy is sitting at a table in his boxers, eating cereal and working on his laptop. Suddenly the door opens and a bunch of people walk in. Guy looks […]

Would you let Twittad pimp your Twitter profile for cash?

09.10.2008 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

Twittad is a new service that, as described on their website “gives Twitter users and advertisers the opportunity to meet for product placement & website promotion on a Twitter user profile.” Sounds warm and fuzzy, doesn’t it? Then you go to the “How Twittad Works” page and the first thing you read is “Post Twitter […]

Buh-Bye Business Cards–Hello Dropcard

09.08.2008 by Maggie McGary // Leave a Comment

I read this post about the importance of remembering to bring business cards to business and social functions and was surprised neither the author nor any of the commenters knew about Dropcard. I may not be the most eco-friendly person on the planet, but I do hate paper and try to have as little of […]
