As a social media consultant, I don’t actually rely on ad revenue from my blog, i.e. Google Adsense or the like to pay my bills. If I did, I would have gone back to working in the law as I was before. I am helping out the folks at Qumana, the blog editor I am [...]

A Test For Monetizing Your Blog With Qumana
Social Media and the Child of Television
I have always been a child of television. I was born at the height of when television broke on to the scene as the next big thing, and I was doused with it’s essence from day one. To that end I have some things that are a part of my DNA I believe that makes [...]
New Media Marketing? Is it taking a backseat?
Just reading over at Profy and Svetlana Gladkova asking the question, "Twitter is a Popular Marketing Tool?". The analysis is interesting on Svetlana’s piece and I think you should read it. The thing that caught my eye was less about the written words and more about the graphic she had in the post.
The thing [...]
Social Mediasphere TV Launched
I have recently launched Social Mediasphere TV and added it to my list of blogs including this one and including Bloggers For Hire in the long list of blogs I contribute to and provide. Social Mediasphere TV is an extension of the radio I was doing on Blog Talk Radio. You can still go over [...]
One By One Media Heading South For The Winter

I will be speaking at Wordcamp Miami as I did in Las Vegas on "Blogging for A Living", [...]
Hosted Blogging Applications; Another Example Why They Are Not For Me
I am constantly finding reasons why I am not a proponent of hosting blogging plans. I am a Wordpress supporter yet I don’t recommend hosting your blog on Wordpress.com, and in spite of the Google mantra of doing no evil, I tell many to run away from Google’s application Blogger. In a recent article by [...]
Twitter Fearing To Make Money But Not Afraid to Borrow Money
I am not in charge over at Twitter and perhaps after this post we will know why. I was catching up on reading about news on Techmeme this evening and saw that Twitter was raising more capital. I had the same reaction to this as did Ashkan Karbasfrooshan with his take on the similarities to [...]
Social Media Tools Like Twitter Can Be Tough To Implement
I struggle to help some companies not in the cool kids group get the traction they deserve and help with with the use of tools just like Twitter, which brings us full circle to my point (we had to get there sooner or later). … I get many people that follow me on Twitter and when I go to their twitter page they have perhaps 10 updates in the last 6 months or even not at all and they have 3000 people they are following and have about 100
Twitter Keeps Flying But Magpie Makes The Money
As I was growing up in rural Colorado, we had plenty of opportunities to see magpies in their environment. They were usually standing over the latest roadkill. Basically they are scavengers. They get fed from nothing they have done on their own but finding the opportunity. I draw that picture to my own mind and [...]
Twitter Is The Epitome of Social Media
I have been busily working out my Twitter thoughts here in the last few days as it has become apparent that I have a slight addiction that needs to be fed now and then as it relates to how I use the service. I have, at this writing, just under 3000 people or organizations [...]
