Birthday celebration!

April 24, 2009

Tweet This just in, Jana is awesome. Happy Birthday!

Tweet Had a fantastic time today at #rebcphx. Good people, good conversations and much to be learned. Something stuck out. In the last presentation, a round table with @dpatricklewis, @chrislee, @aussieheather, @raillife, @evo_terra and a bunch of other people very interested in social media and Twitter especially, I was treated to a very cool compliment.

Enough about the celebs

April 20, 2009

Tweet Social media works because we’re all on a level playing field. We’re judged not by our fame, but what we say, what we accomplish and how we contribute to others around us.

Obama not worthy of honorary degree…from ASU?

April 9, 2009

Tweet First black president of the United States. Wrote two best sellers. One of the most successful persons in this country. And yet not worthy of an honorary degree from ASU. I’m not exactly sure how these honorary degrees work, but it can’t be much more than a PR ploy. Don’t tell me that it’s [...]
