Managing an Online Reputation
A while back, Steve and I wrote a blog post about brand reputation and how to discover what people are saying about you . Therefore, I was excited today to read an excellent article from the New York Times on the same subject ( http://www.nytimes.com...
An Intro to Social Media
We talk about social media, just a little bit , on our Blackbaud blogs. But maybe you're wondering why you should care or you know what it is but need to know more. Where do you go to find more information? I had a friend/professional peer ask me...
Geek Speak: Twitter Tools to Twind Tweeps to Twollow
Try to say that title one time fast (yeah, don't even bother with three times fast)! Phew! Why the alliteration? Well I recently signed up for Twitter a few months ago to see what it was all about, and it wasn’t until I understood the power of it...

Paring Down the Tweets
A week later and my experiment with paring down the number of people I follow has worked wonders (so far). I’m back to following people without as much anxiety and I can keep up without dedicating my every working moment to watching the stream of collective...
Is Social Media Ruining My Attention Span?
I was a child who spent hours and sometimes days reading. I could actually sit still (in one place) and get absorbed in a story. Now, I can't sit still to read a book I know I will enjoy without bouncing up to check the news, sports, weather, friend...
