Yesterday, I got the question “why do you blog?” of course I had around a million answers to respond with. Then I realized that the reason the person asked was not to find out why I blogged but to see if there was any reason to why he should blog.

More than a year ago, Mashable started to create lists of inspiring people on twitter in certain areas, which they shared in posts on their website. The lists were not only good marketing for the people on them, but they were also great for new Twitter users who want to find people who tweet about their [...]

So, as you know from a few previous blog posts and my bio, I study online. What you might not know is that I have done about half my education on Campus. Therefore, I often compare the pros and cons with the two ways to study and constantly find new ones.

If you have read about networking you have probably come across the tools that are “conversational clothing.”  The idea of conversational clothing is to wear items that catch people’s attention and invite a conversation.  A very common example is a pin.

I’ve read about the earthquakes, the tsunamis and the other disasters and how social networks have been used to keep families and other informed about what is going on. Still, because I have been lucky enough to never know anyone in any of these catastrophes I never really understand how big of a difference [...]

Today Google’s latest service Google Buzz launched, and at least it took me by surprise, because I had not heard about it. I follow over 100 of the biggest social media, marketing, tech and web development blogs, yet the first article I could find about Google Buzz was published about four hours ago.
The function is [...]

Most bloggers agree that is more fun to write when you get comments and reactions to what they have to say. Because of this, there are lots of different reaction possibilities on most blogs such as; thumbs up, share on Facebook or Twitter, give points to the post or write a regular comment.
While comments themselves are [...]

They have been going on a while, the viral Facebook status updates. I was first asked to post my bra-color in my status, which has turned into a mystery as no one knows who started it. A day later came the question about the length of my hair, and I’m sure there has been many [...]
