SmartBlog On Social Media : How to choose the Twitter client that's right for you

Fri, 7 Jan 2011 23:27:24 +0000

Yep, we love the premium version of hootsuite, too. We manage many clients through their service, although we recommend that our clients use cotweet for blogging from the group.

Pets-N-Pads : How often should you deep clean?

Sun, 14 Nov 2010 00:36:58 +0000

We have 4 pets and 2 kids and now all I can think about is how much we might need a deep cleaning. We plan on doing this about once a year, but never get to it ourselves. Definitely worth bringing in someone to help us get a fresh start. Also, we have a rent house. The next time I need to clean in-between tenants - I'm hiring someone. Never again.

That's a feature that I've been waiting on from google voice. Thanks for the update.

Just went though my purge, delete and block - one level deeper. Thinning out the herd.

WYROBOT : A pause from not-so-regular blogging to help homeless kids

Susan, thanks for sharing. The kind of close, nurturing attention by the teachers, social workers, psychologists and staff at Positive Tomorrows, gives these kids hope that might otherwise be completely absent in their lives. I'm so glad that there is a place that kids with few other options can find enough trust that they'd want to move in. With that kind of trust - anything is possible.

I'm also interested in their transcription service. Google Voice needs an upgrade.

Your Parker is one of my favorite names in the world, so Panza ranks much higher than Posey, but Peter? Now that's Spiderman.

Alex - thanks for giving me the inside scoop. I love Youmail and will probably stay with the service for the foreseeable future.

For the time being, I'm sticking with youmail, but keeping options open for GV.

Mayeux Research : No, this post doesn't teach you how to beat someone up, either. Sorry.

One thing that I'm concerned about is that all of the hype about bullying might lead to policies that stifle healthy aggression. Do you think there is such a thing? What would our society be like if we weren't careful in defining where that line is?

There is still a cultural difference for valuing intellectual performance. In this country, we value the accomplishments of the individual. We recognize one's abilities for their own individual distinction, but in China, value may be placed on contributing to the benefit of the whole. Those that can distinguish the country or the society more, are rewarded with more support and more opportunity. In summary, I'm speaking about individual power v/s collective power.

Don't you think that smaller schools also represent different cultural groups? Imagine the difference in a community that can support classes of 700 or 1,000 students v/s a class size of only 50 or so. (I mean an entire grade at a school). Do you think that the demographics and interactions within the types of communities that the peers belong to influence the types of peer relations?

I suppose that there are attributes of popularity that are universal and some attributes that are culturally relevant. If you broke popularity down into those components, what attributes would be in which category?

WYROBOT : The Purge

Fri, 20 Feb 2009 20:52:54 +0000

I've had a few problems with the threading system too. I love the tagging and filter system. I noticed that you were interested in getting a BlackBerry. After moving to Gmail, I love how the BlackBerry (or iPhone) syncs with the contacts and calendar. My life is so much easier.

Now you can do even more with Gmail. Google has just added the ability to have multiple inboxes which allows you to prioritize different emails by their tags. Check it out. http://mail.google.com/mail/#settings/lighttlist

WYROBOT : Revised Revolutions and Resolutions

Tue, 20 Jan 2009 04:36:41 +0000

Isn't best to assume that everything is always changing? If you start with this assumption, you just open up the book of resolutions at regular intervals and turn them up, turn them off or tune them in. That would make a great cliche.

WYROBOT : Positive Partnering

Wed, 31 Dec 2008 01:44:30 +0000

My theory is based on my own observations, but I believe this approach is very common. When a decision needs to be made about a relationship connection, opposed to a divorce which is often a more rational process for some reason, including: dating, friendships, hiring and even business partners - there are strong desires to make decisions based on feelings and intuition. "This person makes me feel good for some reason and I don't need to understand why." Think about it this way, the people that have successful relationships, often had some criteria beforehand. Scorecards are encouraged and I recommend that they are kept secret.
