		<description><![CDATA[These statistics on blogging are hard to believe, but they&#8217;ve been widely cited from reliable sources. I always advise the nonprofits and small businesses I work with to blog for this reason. The benefits are obvious, so why doesn&#8217;t everyone have a blog? I think it&#8217;s far more intimidating that it has to be. I [...]

My comment was &#8220;Meh.&#8221; Yes, I have pinboards and I do post things and sometimes peruse others&#8217; pins, but it hasn&#8217;t captured my attention as much as it has some of my friends&#8217;. It&#8217;s interesting if you&#8217;re feeling crafty, looking for new recipes or [...]

I&#8217;ll answer that with two words: Bull. Crap. Obviously there are times when we become engrossed in our smart phones and should pay more attention to [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Interesting how time of day affects response on social media channels. This reminds us that social interaction — online and off — doesn&#8217;t necessarily confine itself to the nine-to-five schedule. What&#8217;s your experience with timing?

		<description><![CDATA[Every time Facebook changes things — which, it seems, it all the time, users get upset. Many of us are change-averse; some of us even react negatively to positive change. I often accuse my husband of being so change-averse he&#8217;d be upset if we won the lottery. (I&#8217;d love the chance to test my theory.) [...]

I, and others in my circles, took to it immediately and many predicted they would soon abandon Facebook. Recently there has been talk that Google+ is dead, despite the adoption rate of 25 million users in one month. This post on [...]

First, let me say that I&#8217;m not a Facebook hater, I&#8217;m not looking for a reason to leave it and I think only time will tell whether or not Google+ will beat it. But if I had [...]

I manage four Twitter accounts, and for some of them, the ability to schedule tweets is crucial. I&#8217;ve used Hootsuite for a long time, but always found the interface clunky and cumbersome. Timely&#8217;s interface is clean and simple to use. Start [...]
