Yesterday I was part of the first social media for business class. An amazing opportunity to take what I know and funnel that to budding business in the valley. The class just one part of a big social media puzzle..but its a start and I feel it was well received. I’m excited to share and to learn. I leered a trick or 2 last evening!
I’m also gearing up for a speaking engagement for University of oshkosh next week. HOW COOL IS THAT!!! I’m going to be speaking to the social media club on campus!
Ever had a day that was kinda blah and then you get one comment, note or card that just changes everything for the better. Well today on twitter I had one message from Erin @wfrv5 on twitter and it lifted my spirits so much. I just had to say THANK YOU!
Yesterday I went to Milwaukee with some good friends to see Scott Stratten @unmarketing on twitter speak about his new book titles UNMarketing. What a great opportunity to meet nationally recognized authors talk about a subject I’m trying to learn.
More on that later…. Just so AMAZING!!!!

I recently has a pretty jabbed comment come my way via twitter from a local… What do you do in that case? Many people saw it so it wasn’t like it was it went under the radar. My point on the deal… always take the high road..it will be to your benefit every time!

So this is so weird. This afternoon, I was given an update for the iPhone Hootsuite app. The updates said “just bug fixes,” but its so much more!!!
This update has some great new features, geotagging, Reply to all… it keeps track of your last users in a contact page for easy reference… sort of like tweetdeck. There is a translate tweet function also. This new version, version 1.1.0, allows you to integrate facebook also. Very slick.
Here are screen shots to prove it. Whats odd, is at 9:00 PM CST, I seem to be the only person talking about this… well @rosslarocco and I are talking about it. But no hootsuite blog activity, no talk about it on twitter. The hootsuite paid app has been pulled from the itunes app store, the lite version is still available 1.0.6.
Whats going on? Am I an unsuspecting beta tester?

Today I had one of those experiences that you always dream about but rarely get to be a part of. I met t
he most amazing twitter gal. Rewind a few months ago. @lisaredshoespr and @jessdennis were at SXSW and tweeted about meeting @cathybrowne. The talked about what a doll she was… When I tweeted that I would be coming to Vancouver for business, she immediately tweeted back that she wanted to meet me. Of course Lisa & Jess said that I MUST meet her, so the bar was set high.
Cathy traveled half hour to my hotel to meet me, what a sacrifice. Its hard to put into the words how great the 60 minutes I spent with her. I’m really not sure what it is or why I feel this way, but I’m so humbled being able to meet her. What an inspiration to have chatted and traded social media war stories. This is exactly what social media is all about and taking engagement to the highest level. THANK YOU @cathybrowne for leaving a mark on my Vancouver trip and a mark on my life. You Rock!
