Today, my wife Annie and I celebrate 9 years of wedded bliss. Okay, so it hasn’t been all bliss, but if I had it to do over, I wouldn’t change a thing. And hey, that’s more than a lot of people can say these days (my wife included, I think). Photo courtesy KC Brock As [...]

It’s been a few weeks since Facebook launched its recent round of changes. Those changes not only included a slight face lift (no pun intended), but some under-the-hood changes as well. If you’re like many, you’re still getting used to them. In fact, it you spend time on Facebook daily, you may have noticed that [...]

Before you ask, the answer is, “No, I do not now, nor have I ever owned a smart phone.” Hard to believe, especially if you know me well. Most of my Facebook friends and Twitter contacts are stunned when they learn I don’t own one. I often hear things like, “I guess I just always [...]

Several months ago I promised Tamar Weinberg I’d do a video review of her book The New Community Rules: Marketing on the Social Web. My apologies to her for taking so long to get around to it. After all, how hard can a video book review be, right? After being sidetracked with other projects shortly [...]

Did I recently post I’d given up on Seesmic? Why, yes I did. But wait. No sooner had I gone back to TweetDeck – and I still really like the newest version of TweetDeck – the folks at Seesmic stepped up their game and added Facebook page functionality to the interface. As someone who manages [...]

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 [...]

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: [...]

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.

Today is my birthday. And for the last several years, I’ve not thought of my birthday as anything to look forward to. I’ve certainly not felt comfortable drawing attention to it. Once you get to be my age, they honestly aren’t a big deal anymore – at least I thought that was the case. In [...]
