All Access Interview

Recently, I was asked by Jackie Chapman (jchapman[at]allaccess[dot]com), the editor over at allaccess.com, to participate in their “10 Questions with” series.  All Access is a very useful and informative broadcast and music industry, members-only website. I thought I’d share my answers here before the interview is published on their site and, in the event you’re [...]

Lovers of Tech, Activate! Form of…Geeks!

Yesterday morning I had the privilege of enjoying breakfast with 29 self-declared Geeks and lovers of all things tech, web 2.0, blogging, podcasting, Twitter, social media and on and on.  It’s affectionately referred to as Geek Breakfast.  In this case, the Franklin – Spring Hill, TN Geek Breakfast. A month ago, I knew virtually none [...]

Are You Social Media Director Worthy?

Earlier today, I read a week-old post from Olivier Blanchard on what companies should look for in hiring a social media director (not quite sure how I missed it originally).  In a word, the post is simply fantastic. If you’ve been handed your company’s social media reigns, charged with hiring this person for your company, [...]

Twitter Client Seesmic Releases Updates

For several weeks now, I’ve been using the third-party Twitter client Seesmic Desktop to manage my Twitter engagement.  I actually migrated from TweetDeck, a platform I never thought I’d leave.  But just as I was wondering if I’d made the right decision, Seesmic released a few key updates yesterday that address specific areas I think [...]

Is Twitter a Waste of Time?

If you’ve recently visited Twitter.com to see what all the fuss was about, chances are you left a little underwhelmed.  Or maybe, amid all the peer pressure, you signed up for an account, gave it a shot and never experienced that “ah ha” moment every Twitter advocate in your circle said you would.  You may [...]

Seesmic, TweetDeck or PeopleBrowsr: Which One’s Right for You?

My travel plans (visiting family in Indianapolis) have eaten into my blogging schedule as of late.  I’d hoped by now to offer a post comparing Seesmic, TweetDeck and PeopleBrowsr. The great thing though about the net is there’s bound to be someone else to pick up your slack.  Enter Michael Hyatt and John Haydon. Michael [...]

Amazing Grace: How Tweet the Sound?

It was with much interest Sunday that I read an article from Time Magazine regarding the rise in the use of Twitter during church services.  In many instances, it’s even being pioneered by the pastors themselves. I immediately sent a link of the Time article to my pastor (@petetackett) via Facebook to get his thoughts: [...]

Geek Breakfast!

In March 2009, I attended my first Podcamp Nashville.  While there I got to meet, or hear speak, a couple of people I’d been following (and admiring) on Twitter for a little while. One of those folks was Dave Delaney (@davedelaney on Twitter).  Soon after, I discovered Dave had organized what he referred to as [...]

Help Me Help You

I’m wondering if you can help me with a decision I’ve been struggling with for several months now.  I should start off by saying if you’re not a Twitter user, you’ll probably be indifferent to my dilemma. Late last year, 88.7 WAY-FM in Nashville, the station for which I serve as operations director, began utilizing [...]

Podcamp Nashville 2009: A First-timer’s Review

Today, I attended Podcamp Nashville being held at the Owen School of Business on the campus of Vanderbilt University.  Dave Delaney (@davedelaney and @griffintech on Twitter) and the Podcamp organizers were responsible for putting it all together. After seeing a few of my tweets from Podcamp Nashville earlier today, several of my followers on Twitter [...]
