Social Media 101Posted by AndyJehn 2 days, 53 minutes ago. 8 Views 0 Comments 3 Votes
Most of my peers have this subject nailed down.... but occasionally I run across someone who I think has it all figured out, all this social media hoopla, and yet they are missing one key element about the system (yes it is a system!) that would make their life online so much simpler. So today's Idea Factory is about all the social media tools I use on a daily or weekly basis. This list will likely change in 6 months, so it will likely require a followup. I know 6 months ago I wasn't using half these tools yet... technology is already light-years ahead of us!I also knew this would be a good post today when I counted my sites up and realized I regularly post to, gasp, over 30 different profiles. No wonder I need automation technology to keep myself from going crazy, AND to be able to do some work in a day! Daily I post to: (# of profiles) Facebook (3), Twitter (3), LinkedIn (1), Flickr (1) Weekly I post to: Blogger (4), You Tube (1), Ning (6), The Wheel Life (1), Aweber (1), Examiner (1), Twitpic (2) Occasionally I post to: Dopplr, MySpace, Travelwriters, Digg, Ph.Art, RedBubble, CafePress, FotoLibra, TripIt, Blip.tv, Meetup, BlogTalkRadio... and probably a few more I'm forgetting! The tools I use to keep me going: When I post to any of my blogs (Access Anything, AA Reviews, Idea Factory, In The Deep) or Examiner, they post automatically to my Twitter via TwitterFeed, and to my Facebook via the Twitter Application. You will have to get familiar with FeedBurner to do so... but it's easy enough. Sometimes I post to Twitter directly and it goes to Facebook with Twitter App, and sometimes I use OutTwit (now called TwInBox) to tweet. I don't use TweetDeck but I know a lot who do, I just don't prefer it. I also use SocialOomph to post a week or month's worth of tweets, or just to pretweet something that is time specific, that I don't want to forget about, OR to tweet something multiple times. This is my favorite tool. I use Retaggr to keep all my profiles organized in one place for networking friends, and use it as a signature on my email (below).  YouTube also autoposts to Facebook, which is nice. So it looks like I spend a LOT more time on Facebook than I really do. :) Twitter just hooked up with LinkedIn, so add that application if you have a profile there. Why we use Social Networking: Since using these tools, our mailing list sign up has increased and I've made tons of new and wonderful contacts all over the world, collaborated with new businesses, sold photographs, booked freelance jobs, and much more. Some people still ask how you find the time for all this, and how you keep it organized. I've learned that frequency is key, so if I'm particularly unmotivated to reach out to the legions, I rely on SocialOomph a little more. And yes, sometimes it's entirely overwhelming... just in writing this post and going to Ning (create your OWN social network!) I realized I'd forgotten about three networks I hadn't been to in months. Oops! But when it seems overwhelming, and even infringing, I step back and take a week to myself, let SocialOomph make it look like I'm out there, and forget about the World Wide Web for a few days. That usually gets me to come back with enthusiasm and new ideas. What to Say: I've listened to and read much on the subject of social networking to make sure I'm doing the right things for our business. I'd never be this omnipresent if it wasn't for our business; but since we are, I want to do it right. Here are the basics on what to and what not to "Tweet" if you're doing this for yours or someone else's business and marketing.
My Challenge: I challenge you to find (all of) me on all these sites! My Companies/Profiles: Access Anything, Andrea Jehn Kennedy Photography, Yampa Valley Sustainability Council  Read More >> |

Grip it! Grip it good!Posted by TLaVan 3 days, 21 minutes ago. 121 Views 7 Comments 17 Votes
I recently purchased a new set of Callaway X-22s, FT Hybrids, FTi driver, & X woods. I only do this every 20 years so this will likely be my last set of clubs. The first thing I did was regrip all of them with the new Golf Pride Multi Compound grips with the soft left hand and corded right. I've been regripping my own clubs for years and I'm pretty good at it, not that it's all that technical, just some allignment preferences & installment techniques.

Mental Game Exercise: Practice drill to get you in sync with the club-facePosted by DavidMackenzie 3 days, 48 minutes ago. 345 Views 3 Comments 12 Votes
Most of us are obsessed with swinging the club in the “correct” way. We get caught up in swing mechanics instead of increasing our awareness and feel for different shots. In my opinion, once the fundamentals of the swing are correct, there is no right or wrong way to swing the golf club. The most important factors of a good golf game are visualization and feel, which we can learn with some simple awareness exercises.

Wall's buzzer-beater vs. Miami (Ohio) bails out No. 5 KentuckyPosted by JonDye 3 days, 7 hours, 3 minutes ago. 14 Views 0 Comments 2 Votes
Kentucky coach John Calipari looked up at the clock after Miami of Ohio tied the fifth-ranked Wildcats with six seconds left and wondered if he should call timeout.
John Wall didn't give him a chance. The heralded Kentucky freshman quickly grabbed the inbounds pass, raced by his coach in a blur and pulled up from 15 feet. Before Calipari could collect his thoughts, Wall's jumper was through the net to give the Wildcats a 72-70 win Monday night and Kentucky's newest superstar was running down the floor pounding his chest in joy.
GAME REPORT: Kentucky 72, Miami (Ohio) 70
"John Wall catching it and going, I loved it," Calipari said. How could he not? Wall finished with 19 points and five rebounds in his highly anticipated debut as the Wildcats (2-0) escaped the RedHawks (0-2). Considered the top high school player in the country when he signed with the Wildcats last spring, Wall was forced to sit out Kentucky's season-opening win over Morehead State last week as part of an NCAA suspension for accepting improper benefits from his AAU coach. He proved to be worth the wait. Wall's heroics prevented Miami from joining Gardner-Webb and Virginia Military Institute as November giant killers at Rupp Arena. Urged by Calipari to "go make a play," Wall responded with the kind of heroics expected when he signed with the Wildcats last spring. "I was kind of nervous," Wall admitted. He didn't look it. Wall zoomed down the left side of the floor and — seeing four RedHawks packing the lane — opted for the jumper he'd been working on with assistant coach Rod Strickland. "When it hit the bottom of the net, it was a relief, a great feeling," Wall said. One that replaced the anxiety that permeated the arena after the RedHawks took an 18-point lead in the first half. The only person who didn't seem to panic was Calipari, who said he wanted his talented but inexperienced team to be tested early in the year. "I wanted to see what we were made of," Calipari said. "In the huddle, they were saying 'We are not going to lose this.' Hey, this was kind of fun." It didn't exactly seem like it after Miami's Kenny Hayes hit a three-pointer to tie the game at 70. Yet Wall's heroics spoiled Miami's bid for an upset, not that it seemed to bother coach Charlie Coles. "All I'm hearing is they've got four (NBA) draft choices and you're asking me how it got away from you?" Coles said. "We came up with a brilliant effort." One that wasn't quite enough to pull off another early season stunner at Rupp. Wall got plenty off help in the second half as Kentucky used its size to overcome shoddy ballhandling and questionable shot selection. Patrick Patterson had 17 points and 10 rebounds and DeMarcus Cousins had 10 points and 10 boards for Kentucky, which outrebounded Miami 37-25 and outscored the RedHawks 32-12 in the paint. Kentucky needed every last one of them. Nick Winbush led Miami with 26 points and the RedHawks nearly pulled off the upset thanks to making 15 of 26 three-pointers. "I've told people, these guys know how to shoot," Coles said. "This would have been by best win." Wall wasn't perfect — he turned it over five times — but he looked at ease with the ball in his hands and hardly bothered with the hype surrounding his arrival. He didn't waste any time getting comfortable, he drilled his first shot, a three-pointer from the top of the key, to give Kentucky an early 8-5 lead. The RedHawks, however, were hardly in awe. Miami packed in its zone to cut off Wall and backcourt mate Eric Bledsoe from getting to the lane and didn't hesitate to lay a body on Wall's slender 6-foot-4 frame. He was bumped nearly every time he got into traffic and received a rude welcome to college basketball while running on the fast break midway through the first half. Wall was running down the wing when Bledsoe attempted to hit him with an alley-oop. Hayes, however, jumped up to contest it, deflecting the pass away and sending Wall tumbling to the floor along the baseline in the process. Wall laid on the floor for several moments before gingerly walking off the court. He returned after getting a once-over from the training staff and a little talking-to from Calipari. "Coach sat me down and told me 'You can't do it all yourself,"' Wall said. "When I went back in, I settled down and just tried to make plays." Read More >> |
