Words From a Purple Mind

Input on the important topics …to me of course

Social Networking

Tips from the CEO of LinkedIn (Free Activity Tracker)

If you are asking what is LinkedIn or have been with LinkedIn for awhile this video/blog is for you.

Back in early March CNN held an interview with the CEO of LinkedIn. Reid Hoffman answered questions on how to use LinkedIn. Notice that in the video there is a comment that FaceBook is not something you should use at work.

Is Twitter advertising coming?

Have you logged into Twitter recently? If you login today you will notice a new box with a link to widgets/twitter search. It even gives you a definition of what they are if you don’t already know. I have a feeling that this is just a test and pretty soon we will see “Advertise Here” links. My only wish is that they do not start having pop-ups. I personally am not a fan of popups.

Search for what you need using Social Media

We are all searching for something almost 90% of the time. Either we are searching for our next job, an old friend, new gossip, etc. Even though we are all searching for different things we can all use the same tools to find what we need/want.

Twellow can be used to increase connections

Some of you use Twitter but do you use Twellow as well? Twellow pulls your updates from Twitter and posts them in the categories you select. You can get listed in 10 different categories.

If you want to connect with people who have experience and expertise in your areas of interest then this is the place to go.
