Social Media Top 5: Phweet Phound of Phuccess

Ok, trying to make a pun I made a naughty sounding blog title. Dear me. Well, here I go, thanks to some phriends on Twitter: Phweet? Phounds like im Liphping. Not sure how this audio-for-Twitter service works here, but I’ll add it to the pile along with identi.ca, Plurk, Rejaw, Jaiku, Brightkite and a bunch [...]

Utterzcast: Keeping score is fun but then what?

Anyone who follows me on Twitter knows I love keeping score and following shiny round numbers. I can also get quite competitive in my work if someone gets my back up. That said, I separate those fun bits from what really pushes us all forward; content and ideas, fueled by your community (community or content [...]

Utterzcast: Do you need rules?

I am one of those people that likes to break rules, but also likes to have them in place first. Does that make me not so"free?" I don’t think so. Maybe I like editing over writing due to this. I think of it this way; even most improvisitory jazz musicians vamp over a predetermined set [...]

Utterzcast: Mojo is making me hate the Beatles

I love Mojo, a great British music monthly. Their monthly CDs are often a treat featuring new bands, summing up trend. or highlighting a rock star’s influences and favorites. But every once in a while, they unleash recreations of Beatle albums, comprised of cover versions, that are staggeringly awful. I mean, jam knitting needles into [...]

Utterzcast: I swear I’m not making this up

I had dinner with a friend last night I hadn’t seen in years. He is not involved in any way in tech, public relations or social media. But when I was explaining what I do and started talking about blogs, he said, unprovoked: "Do these companies realize that they no longer have control of their [...]

Utterzcast: Still thinking that content is #1

Like a lot of folks, I spend much time figuring out the best way to get to good content efficiently. As a public relations professional, I particularly seek out blogs that discuss my profession. RSS feeds? Great, and primary, but hard to keep up with. Contests for best PR blogs, like the current PRWeek contest? [...]

Utterzcast: To Absent Friends

Just got back from a goodbye Tweet-up for Bryan Person, who is leaving Boston for Austin, Texas. Seems like a lot of Bostonians are moving there. Hmmm. How much does location matter? Not as much as it used to, though face-to-face is still best. Heard of the old toast "to absent friends?" We have more [...]

Pan Mass Challenge; Rider’s Eye View

A week after the event, I am still awed by the experience of riding the Pan-Mass Challenge. More than that, I am awed by the generosity of the people who stepped up to sponsor me; in fact I was stunned and humbled to make my fundraising minimum of $3,400 the day before the ride, even [...]
