I had lunch with the guy I like today. Just typing that makes me feel like I’m in high school all over again.

The Best Social Media Blogs on Tumblr
As a social media marketing consultant, I focus on posting content related to my industry. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a Tumblr directory category for social media or any lists of the best Tumblr blogs in the field. Argh! So, I scoured Tumblr for the blogs with the best social media...

world-shaker:
LinkedIn has been having some fun with their data lately. They opened up the career tree a couple of months ago, and today they announced InMap to visualize your links as a network diagram. They call it InMap:
InMaps is an interactive visual representation of your professional universe that answers all of the above questions. It’s a great way to understand the relationships...

I failed and I'm going to do better
I messed up big time today. I totally choked while I was giving a presentation in front of my colleagues.
To make a long story short, I was working on this presentation for a while. However, I decided to put way too much effort into making a Prezi at the very last minute. I got caught up in making a good slideshow (that wasn’t even good) that I forgot about everything else that is...

A letter to my friends
Dear Friends:
I understand you want me to be happy. However, I cannot tell the love of my life I like him because I fear getting a letter from HR. And who knows if he feels the same way. I don’t want to make a fool out of myself.
I also refuse to use online dating sites to find my next mate. I’m glad it worked for you and your (ex) girlfriend/boyfriend but it isn’t for me. I...

Bouquet of flowers
I bought myself a bouquet of pink and white flowers today. When I got home, I took out my dried red roses and cleaned out the glass vase. I cut an inch off the stems and placed them in their new home. Then I sat there looking at them for 20 minutes. They are absolutely gorgeous.
Pictures to come…

Studies have shown that Sundays are the most depressing day of the week for most people because it makes people question their purpose in life. Work makes us feel like our lives have meaning, so when we are not working we feel lost. As long as we keep busy, we will never slow down and ask if this is really what we want in life. Mondays off work are even worse because you feel like...

The No. 1 Habit of Highly Creative People →
strongerbonds:
While the real number one habit of highly creative people is whatever works for them and only them (see this article), I can argue in favor of Leo Babauta’s top creative habit. In a word: solitude.
Creativity flourishes in solitude. With quiet, you can hear your thoughts, you can reach deep within yourself, you can focus. (cameronmoll)
You know, that is absolutely true. Read...
Soup: The Death of Platforms →
soupsoup:
Facebook isn’t going away, neither is Twitter, nor Tumblr. No offense to Tumblr but in a perfect world, we wouldn’t have any of these platforms. In a perfect world everyone would have their own piece of the web that they own entirely. The tech savvy have this, so far as they don’t own the datacenter that their server physically resides in. That’s about the last mile of anyone owning...

Note From Student
Hi Betsy,
Hope your weekend is going well. I have to give you a BIG THANK YOU! for helping me with the Saturday class. It might not have been the time or day I would’ve chosen, but I am sure this Professor will definitely prepare me for the grammar exam. Thank you so much for trying your best in seeing to it that I got in.
Glad to know there are some people who care.

800 CEO Read →
I just came across this website dedicated to business books. Not only are their books deeply discounted (40-50%), you can customize/brand your books. You can add a belly band or a signature to your book. I can totally see CEO’s and C level executives gifting these books to business partners, prospective clients, etc. You can also schedule to bring these business authors to your organization....

Post 501
I just realized that my last post was my 500th post on Tumblr. I knew I was going to hit 500 sometime this month but I totally forgot about it and just posted that picture of an extremely fluffy cat(?) that resembles a Tribble. I was going to delete it but I want to stay true to what’s become of my Tumblr. So I’ll just hash out my thoughts on this 501st post.

My Thoughts on a Social Media Policy - Revised
I didn’t think a social media policy was necessary at my current workplace. I’ve worked with large corporations before and I’ve always believed that implementing a policy also meant “I don’t trust you” was written somewhere in between the lines.
I’ve also been doing some research regarding technology and new media adoption with young adults. I guess...
