Toby Bloomberg, who writes Diva Marketing Blog, asked me recently to define social media. I didn’t have a lot of time to think, okay? But here I am on her blog aside much smarter people. Like Peter Kim Being Peter a Senior Analyst at Forrester Research. And the hysterical David Berkowitz (Marketers Studio), a Director of Emerging Media at 360i.
David, by the way, taught me the word “lolcats.”
I’m just so glad this cat’s out of the bag, so I can officially boast that I used LonelyGirl15’s Visine in the dressing room. Too bad the set was closed to cameras. In one of those moments I wish I had on tape, I had to ask the star of LonelyGirl15 what we should call…
Soliciting pointless comments. Topics can range from midgets and poop, to higher concepts like secret phobias or painful childhood memories. To begin the thread, I offer you a photo of Snuggie 2.0.
AOL debuted a revamped homepage this week, with a greater emphasis on video. Says PCMag: The new site is also very video-heavy. “AOL Daybreak” is a hosted morning news round-up, and “The Light Box” is an in-page video player featuring content from AOL and its partners. In the “Editor’s Picks” section, the site showcases the…
Oh he’s a cute little sheep. But before you can finish that bowl of Captain Crunch and spores, it appears he’s shape shifting. Mutating into “ovine geometry.” By Cyriak. He’s the guy that gave us the delightful Teddy Bears, Pigeons at the beach (love it when Teddy lifts the walking man). And head-banging cows. It’s…
I used to be a regular user of YouSendIt, but then it seemed to limit files and often upselling me. Pando has been a favorite — quite easy to use, although it does require a download (Mac or Windows). It’s also fickle sometimes. Then here’s a new one… SendUit.
Several trends are causing many independent “YouTube Creators” to sign with “new establishment” (web studios) such as Makers Studios (good luck finding its website), Next New Networks, The Station, Howcast and Machinima. Many early web studios were formed to create and promote custom shows for wide distribution. But the high investment ($1-$5K per edited minute)…

Nalts – Must disagree .. you are every bit as brilliant as Peter and as funny as David! Thanks again for playing along.
Nice response Kevin. Now if I can just figure out a way to get my co-workers and relatives to understand and stop teasing me for the number of hours I spend “in front of my computer”.
I miss Nutcheese… I should hang out in her Stickam room more.
They didn’t sound smarter… you all just sounded like computer nerds. I’m sure glad I’m not a computer nerd! Oh crap… am I replying to a blog post! Does this make me a computer nerd? No… I got it… I am just doing research online… yeah that’s it… research.
btw… fallofautumndistro is stalking me.
That second guy was hitting on Toby Bloomberg big time, almost as bad as Katie Couric was hitting on you.
The third guy I have no comment on, since he had almost nothing to say himself.
As for your comment, you don’t give yourself nearly enough credit. You were as eloquent as Dostoyefsky. And almost as long winded too.
Okay I’m kidding. I can’t help it. I’m just in one of those “hey, let’s give nalts as much shit as we can” moods lately. Hopefully it will pass quickly, like that other thing I’m having trouble getting rid of. And I’m not talking about lice.
uh oh! i gotta fart!……………. o yea! not any more!
It was my daughter who taught me about lolcats.
I just saw zefrank on Animal Planet. He got a gig co-hosting a bit on animal fatherhood with ten or twelve other who-are-they?’s. Cool. So there IS a Hollywood ending for all this self-promotion and pandering. But, uh, he could’ve taken the shortcut everyone else took to get this gig and just showed up Wednesday night at The Laugh Factory on Sunset.
He shares his success and tips for creating that viral video that will sweep us into our own fifteen minutes of fame.
