These are questions that have plagued the social media/digital geek community ever since these technologies became an extension of ourselves. But who has it worse is the journalist population… and I know this for two reasons – [...]

May 20th, 2010 by ame
Do you ever think back to the days when you couldn’t just google, bing, or wolfram alpha an answer and have an instantaneous answer along with an infographic to back it up?

He writes: “How do the dwindling print media companies resurrect themselves… My personal opinion is that there are some working examples [...]
America’s Favorite Handbags Go Digital
December 2nd, 2009 by ame
I grew up wearing a uniform. So, as a girl, your only way to showcase your personality was through your purse and your shoes, and at my school, it was all about the bag. Many went for the true americana styles of Coach or Dooney, and of course there was the occasional Euro entry (which [...]
Social Media: It’s a People-Driven Economy, Stupid ;)
November 20th, 2009 by ame
Every once in a while, I come across a video on YouTube (or a slideshow on SlideShare) that really captures the excitement, data, and the importance of what social media is all about.
