Lisa, Jess and Tommy talk about static versus dynamic Web sites. You don’t have to spend thousands of dollars and know HTML code to design decent looking web sites. With WordPress and some time, you can build a Web site that looks like a pro did it.

Today was my last day of work at RR Donnelley. Almost 14.5 years of great memories, laughs and love. It all came to a close at the Exit Interview. About a dozen questions about my stay at RRD. Pretty sterile and objective. A pretty emotional day, but all in all..amazing. THANK YOU all my RRD friends and family. Its Happening and this is just the beginning!!! So exciting to watch it all happen.

With the exit interview behind me, it was smooth sailing. A dozen or so questions then its time for lunch with my great friends at Red Shoes PR. We grubbed at Panera Bread, talked about our first jobs and transitioning betwen jobs. Fun had by all. Now its off to happy hour and more friends and well wishing.

Tommy’s Blue and Gold Cub Scout banquet was a hit. So much fun. His cub master of many years stepped down from his post. I have sop much respect and love for people who serve children in that capacity. AMAZING!!! But today’s highlight is the student assembly at Gegan Elementary where it was announced they made $2000.00 in a penny war for Haiti. The generous gift from the folks at Red Shoes PR with a $600 match made it all possible. Of course there were the fine folks at Prospera Credit Union who counted all the loose change. There was a HUGE 3×5 foot check to give to the American Red Cross. Oh man, warm and fuzzies all around.
Jess Dennis and Tommytrc discuss the 2010 Winter Olympics and how social media is negatively affecting tape delays in programming. Can networks like NBC continue to control when live events are aired and whether participants can discuss the proceedings in their social networks? Are the big networks acting as gatekeepers and trying to control the message? Control freaks or not, discuss on Twitter using the hashtag #redshoesspeak.

Kevin Smith (@thatkevinsmith) was asked to step off a Southwest Airlines (@SouthwestAir) flight on Feb. 13, 2010 due to his size. With over 1.6 million followers, Smith’s Tweets about the situation quickly hit mainstream media and blew up in social media. The Southwest Twitter account responded very quickly and appropriately with multiple apologies. As companies continue to engage in social media, how do they prevent or respond to crisis situations such as this? Join the conversation on Twitter using the hash tag #redshoesspeak.
