Twitter Networking Secrets: The Secret Power of Search I’ve said this recently but I have to reiterate. Twitter is the most powerful networking tool ever invented.

In the past 30 (or so) months I have been using Twitter, I have been able to make more friends, network more business connections, build business connections for other people and deepen the connection with those who find what I have to say useful (My Tribe). For starters, I have to admit – I didn’t [...]

Capillarity

Last night I was at a local mixer when a young man, Chris Contreras (@AustinVisMedia), came up to me and told me how much he enjoyed reading my blog. Thank you Chris, you have no idea how energizing it is to hear that what we do/write makes a difference; that someone is actually listening. I [...]

Plan B

19 October 2010 by Joey McGirr in Just Writing, No Comments

Why we need a backup plan or “How I stopped worrying and loved the economy” Everyone needs a “Plan B”, a backup plan. When it comes to this economy we should all take a lesson from life and mentally lock away what we learned about losing our one source of income or the one home [...]

Philosophy

Share – Engage – Connect Share: Let’s face it. The fact that social media even exists is due to the “share factor.” In her article, Witness Me, Claire Wagner nails the topic with laser precision. We want to let the world know we’re, “having a foot long sandwich from Subway.” Why? We’re social. It’s embedded in [...]

Read-ationships

I was having coffee this morning with my friend and colleague when she asked me a perplexing question. “Would you suggest I get a blog or a twitter handle.” My response was, “What are your intentions?” Let’s face it; how you plan to blog is as important as what you blog. Why are they going [...]

Here’s a little story about me. In my youth I was your typical “Nice Guy.” And as the saying goes, “nice guys finish last.” Regardless of what you believe about the above statement, nice guys tend to be a little more trusting (even when they know better) and the inevitable always happens; they finish last.
