The first day of fall
What is your favorite season? Mine is easily fall. Although in California there really aren't seasons where we live, and to be honest I hate it. It's the only thing about CA I hate. No seasons. It will still get cool here, but not like OK, my home state. So, what's your favorite season and why?

Helpful or a know-it-all
When it comes to how you interact online are you helpful or a know-it-all? It's really tough on the Web. Even if you feel like you are being helpful you can sometimes come across as a know-it-all. I know this to be true for myself and other people I have communicated with online. Obviously people can't see your body language or hear the tone in your voice. I have had to watch how I answer questions or reply to someone. Be careful in how you answer people online. It's more important than you think. Have you noticed this?What are some things you can do to make sure you sound more helpful than a know-it-all?

Posterous gets it
I was having a problem today with my Posterous account so like anyone would do I posted my problem on my Posterous site. Within less than an hour I had someone from Posterous comment on my post to try to help me. Posterous gets it. They get custmer service and they get social media. They have a great product. Even if i wasnt a huge fan I would use them even more because of their customer service. We can all learn from companies like Posterous. Great online customer service is an important part of social media. Be nice and helpful, and it will pay off. Thanks for being a great example to others.

Where do you get the most comments?
Odds are most of you have your Twitter and Facebook linked together. I did for a while and then decided to unlink them for several reasons. Anyways, I noticed even when I had them linked I would get way more comments on Facebook than on Twitter. I have been trying to figure out why. I think what it comes down to, is that on Facebook is where my friends are that I have met face to face or have known for a really long time. The majority of my twitter followers or people I'm following are people I like to listen to, but I have probably not met face to face. I would love to meet all my followers face to face, but his could be difficult. What it comes down to is that people I have met in person are more likely to comment on my posts or status updates, than people I haven't met. I also feel like the people I don't know who comment understand social media and how to leverage it better than others. Does this make any sense at all? Where do most of your comments come from? People you know or don't? Facebook or Twitter?

You will always remember where you were
This time 2 years ago I was in one of my best friend's, David Irons, wedding. It was a very joyous day. I remember it like it was yesterday, but not because of the wedding. September 14th, 2007 was the day my grandpa, mom's dad, died. We called him Bubbee. He was sick at the time and we knew the day was going to come we just didn't really know when. I remember getting a phone call from my dad about 5 minutes before the wedding started. He didn't tell me then, but I could here it in his voice. My parents told me later that night when I got home after the wedding. Both of my grandmas are still alive, but I really miss my grandpas. I was fortunate to have all 4 grandparents living until I was in my 20's. I have great memories and will always hold on to those. Why is it we remember exactly what we were doing and where we were when things like this happen in our lives? And why do they always feel like they happened yesterday?
