Obsolete social media networks – Jim Says

July 7, 2011 By Jim Raffel 8 Comments

Yesterday, Shelby covered this topic and I must say by and large I agree with her. I know, where's the fun in a "She Said, He Said" topic when we agree? Well, sometimes it's more about different perspectives and I think this is one of those times. While I agreed on the word "obsolete" when Shelby … [Read more...]

Obsolete social media networks – Shelby Says

July 6, 2011 By Shelby Sapusek 6 Comments

This week, Jim and I came up with a tough topic: What social media network will become obsolete first? Will it be Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Gowalla, Foursquare, etc.? I had to put a lot of thought into this one and decided the answer is complex enough for a blog post; although I'll be happy to … [Read more...]

See #shehechat in person on National Social Media Day

June 30, 2011 By Shelby Sapusek 1 Comment

Jim and I knew that, no matter what time we picked for our weekly #shehechat, we would sometimes have conflicts. Jim travels frequently and we both have much going on in our professional and personal lives. A couple of weeks ago, we realized we had both signed up to attend an event on a Thursday … [Read more...]

Name Those Tweets! Can you predict #shehechat?

June 23, 2011 By Shelby Sapusek 2 Comments

How to Avoid Weiner Tweets

June 8, 2011 By Jim Raffel Leave a Comment

Congressman Anthony Weiner's recent troubles with Twitter got me thinking about how many times I've done the same thing. Well, not exactly the same thing; but you know what I mean: sending what was intended to be a private message (a DM in Twitter speak) as a public message (an @ message in Twitter … [Read more...]

How to Twitter Chat with ChatTagged

May 26, 2011 By Jim Raffel 2 Comments

A week ago, Shelby Sapusek and I launched a Twitter chat (#shehechat) featuring us discussing social media, marketing and communications issues. It's a format similar to our "She Said, He Said" blog posts except it occurs live and our conversation is spontaneous and off the cuff. So, that's tonight … [Read more...]

How to maximize the value of your event

May 5, 2011 By Jim Raffel Leave a Comment

It's been about a week since we completed a successful event for ColorMetrix. The thing is we are not done creating and deriving value from the event yet; not by a long shot. So, it was with great interest that I read "Beyond Your Event" over on the M-Bossed blog. If there is event planning in your … [Read more...]

Follow Me, The Right Way

May 3, 2011 By Jim Raffel 14 Comments

Several times in the last week I've observed signs, napkins and place mats that all say "Follow me[us] on Twitter[Facebook]." While I think this is great, I find it both amusing and alarming that more than half these messages do not contain the handle or URL to follow/connect with. The image above … [Read more...]

How social media opened the door to the 'Rainman' suite

May 2, 2011 By Jim Raffel 7 Comments

I had the pleasure of organizing a party for my customers, colleagues and friends in what my friend Dan Wilde nicknamed "The Rainman Suite." A relationship developed through social media with Danielle Consiglio who manages the Luxor Las Vegas Twitter account provided the access necessary to have our … [Read more...]

Why I care if you're not wearing pants

April 7, 2011 By Jim Raffel 2 Comments

Most of us share silly and somewhat meaningless status updates in social media from time to time. That's okay because if you really want to let the whole world know you're not wearing pants, it's actually my problem not yours. Please keep sharing those crazy status updates on Twitter and Facebook. … [Read more...]
