Red Shoes Speaks No. 70 – Facebook & Skype together

Lisa & Tommy talk about the new integration of Skype chat within Facebook. Lisa’s not so big on the instant messaging capabilities in Facebook and doesn’t think she will use the video chat capabilities. Tommy is also leery of the new capabilities. Each tool has its own to gain from the merger of services. Interesting to see where this will go.

Red Shoes Speaks No. 67 News Aggregators for the Apple iPad

Lisa and Tommy talk about their picks for best news aggregators for their Apple iPads. Lisa likes Fluent News and the Daily and Tommy prefers flipboard. One beef they both find with the crop of newsreaders is the fact it takes time to download content and they are not very friendly in situations where you don’t have wifi or 3G access…like airline travel. There needs to be a way you can pre-download content for offline reading.

TommyLog – Bang Your Head Against a Wall

Yesterday I was at Red Shoes PR doing some filming. A frustrated Lisa comes in the room and says… Once you are finished banging your head against a wall, why not try the door? WOW..how profound and how true. Many times if you are just getting beaten up with a project, take a few steps backwards and take a closer look. Words to live by!

This week I received the coolest hand made card from my friend in New Jersey!! Thank you IS for the hand made love!!! Thank you cards just rock!!
