In the past week, I’ve done four speaking engagements, some with my colleagues at THP. Included in the audiences were students, journalists, PR professionals, small business owners, folks from non-profits, consultants from all walks of life. A pretty good mix of people. Some of the focus was on journalism and public relations but in all [...]

Our #PRSARVA presentation

So, what’s next? We want to know.
A quick post here to preview a talk that Sonali and I are giving next Wednesday to PRSA Richmond. They tell me that more than 100 folks have signed up so seats are going fast (more than veiled attempt here to jam the room.) Here’s a link to sign up. Even though Hodges Digital Strategies [...]

Facebook Places #fail?

It has been widely reported that tomorrow is the day that Facebook will officially announce that it will be getting into the geo-location business as well.

The story of #bubbleswarm: Badges? We don’t need…
Foursquare, we don’t need no stinkin’ badges. Actually we do. Really. Want them. But I digress.
