Read MoreHave You Seen My Glasses?
My knee surgery led to my getting a bad head cold, which made me sleep a lot. Once, I fell asleep and my adorable new puppy, Kynya, chewed up my $300 eyeglasses with the special lenses. It is through my fashionable, beat up frames that I share with you now. If you want to live well and not die prematurely, you MUST read this book. Says Stephen Spencer in, Reading this book could save your life I love colors. Six Revisions lavishes us with Beautiful and Creative Examples of Vibrant Web...
Read MoreLook at the Usability, SEO, Web Design and Cool Stuff I Saved Up For You
Every town should have a winning team and Philadelphia is no different. Traditionally, our sports teams get whisper-close to huge wins and then crap out in the last seconds. Tonight, nobody is breathing anywhere near Philadelphia. If the Phillies beat the Tampa Bay Rays tonight, no cheese steak is safe. To celebrate any excuse to root on the Phillies, I decided to open my secret stash and share some of my finds with you. Update: The Philadelphia Phillies won the 2008 World Series in game 5...
Read MoreCre8asiteforums News, SEL, Key Relevance Coverage, Marketing Right Now
Is it just me, or is everything feeling very strange lately? Good friends are literally being beat up online and their reputations taking serious blows. I visualize a slight breeze, picnic lunch with wine, beer and good friends under a big spreading oak tree and deciding which puffy clouds look like cows in the sky… Marketing Right Now Barry Welford has a series running called “Marketing Right Now” (or MRN) running at the Cre8asiteforums Blog, Cre8tive Flow.

Read MoreInterview with Sugarrae, How to Fight Nice, and Getting Sued for Negative Publicity Online
I’m pleased with how my Interview with Rae Hoffman aka “Sugarrae” went. I’m a working mother with spouse, house, pets, and lots of commitments and responsibilities. I’ve long dreamed of having my own office outside my home. Rae has achieved milestones and worked harder than most might in her set of circumstances. On affliliate marketing, Rae states: I see those who “get” the challenges coming up getting pretty damn sophisticated at what they do, myself...
Read MoreMoving Right Along
What a wild year. I hit an age milestone and one child has grown up and is training me on how to be the mother of someone who has her own car, job, boyfriend and still never makes her bed. School is almost out for the summer. Already my son finished the baseball season for team number one, and now he’s on his second team, where they play into July. They’ve only lost one game so far. Freshman high school football camps and practice for him start the week after school ends. ...
Read MoreThe Not-So User Experience of Social Networking
I got a message from Facebook today. Someone indicated I am “hot” in one of those “Compare” applications. I accepted this word graciously offered to me and clung to it like a cat pouncing a mouse. Facebook has been interesting to explore. MySpace has a cluttered, chaotic user interface that confuses the hell out of me. Facebook is organized and loaded with more ways to connect with and keep track of friends. Not a day goes by where someone is stuck in a bus or...
Read MoreTwitter Reminds Me of “Cheers” TV Show
I caved. I knew I would, once I read Jennifer Laycock’s series, From Twits to Tweeple, Why I Embraced Twitter and You Should Too. Anything that sidetracks me from work is a threat in my book. However, Twitter isn’t so bad. The final push for me was that I miss my friends. Travel for me this year is all up in the air. There’s a lot going on at home with my college bound daughter and highly involved sports and musician oriented son. Not to mention a heavy workload. With...
Read MoreHow Much Information is TMI for your Brand or Professional Reputation?
I was approached by a friend with an idea. It went along the lines of “What if we get a group together to promote this cause ….” and from that point on my imagination soared with what-ifs and can-we’s. And I wondered about the can of worms we might be opening. Those of you in Facebook know from experience that when someone who is your “friend” joins a cause, everyone gets a notice about it. After awhile, we begin to get a sense of what our friends are...
