Newsday’s 2nd Tweetup – FollowLI12 on 2/23/12
This past Thursday night, Newsday held their second tweetup at their offices in Melville. I had the pleasure of being at the first one, which was a blast. This year Carl Corry and crew switched it up by limiting invitations to people who were profiled in the paper’s FollowLI section in 2011. Just wanted to post [...]
What does your site look like on mobile screens?
So many websites that are amazing on the desktop sadly still die a painful death on the mobile screen. Found this one in a Landscaping industry magazine while finalizing a presentation for a client. It was featured as a model site for the industry in an article on the value of a website for landscapers. [...]
Why I love wa.ag and you should too (and a discount code)
What I dislike (if you know me you can feel the restraint in that word) about most networking events is the lack of humanity. I understand that everyone has something to sell (their startup, their service, themselves). The problem is unless I know you, I’m really (really, really, really) not interested in your 30 second [...]
Things to share at the 8/18/11 LITweetUp
I’ve been thinking about importing one more thing into the Long Island Social Media / PR / Marketing scene and I’ve decided I’m definitely going to do it. It’ll be in-industry mainly and I’ll have more details at the LITweetUp at Alure.
Extending the Call for Speakers for 140Conf Long Island

Are you Influential?
It’s really easy to make me happy. Laugh at my jokes, smile back when I smile at you or maybe put my picture in the paper and be kind enough to throw in a quote (thank you @PatriciaKitchen). So if Patricia were to call me now and ask me to email my famous pear omelette recipe, would [...]
Nice mention in Newsday today!
Thank you to @CarlCory & the gang at Newsday for including me in their first ever FIVEtoFollow in LI (page A31).

My thoughts on The Well by Chris Gregory
Great storytelling captivates me, especially when I come across a piece that shakes up a preconceived notion I’ve held on to and never considered thoroughly. The Well: Covering Capitol Hill by Chris Gregory is one of those stories. My buddy John Doyle (@14str8) shared it on Facebook this morning. Take a look if you have [...]
