Social Media

I use to be part of almost every social site that is currently popular today  like Facebook, Myspace, Virb, Vox, Twitter, etc.  In recent years I’ve scaled back a lot, since I really never used those sites anymore except for Twitter. Just recently I revived my Facebook account just because it has been the best way to keep in touch with close family and friends. I’m not over crazy using Facebook  like some are, I hardly even update it much at all. I’m mostly on Twitter, Im and blogging which is about it for my activity online these days. However, I do track my music via Last.fm and Pandora or my pictures with Flickr.

Most days I do a lot of work with Social Media, but it mostly for clients and business. These days, I’m on the computer  mostly for business doing web design/building, doing marketing, emailing, editing photos, drawing or tech support for  web/server admin.

Social Media & Co Working Finally Invades NC

I’m so excited to know that social media meet-ups are finally coming to NC. Charlotte has already had aWordCampCo-Working Events, a lot of social mediameet-ups and now on Saturday the first ever BarCamp. I hope we see many more events like this for NC. I am also happy to see the Co-working movement make head way in NC too. Carrboro Creative Coworking was the first co-working group established in NC. According to the co-working wiki  there has been talk of  more  co-working groups coming to the state too . I know there is one coming to Asheville, but still wish we could get something a little closer here too.

Like to go to BarCampCharlotte?

The Pre-Party is on Friday, Jan. 23, 2009 from 6pm-10pm at HOM

Where I Am Online

My friend and business colleague Tracey Lawton tagged me today to post a blog entry of where I hang out online.

I have to:

  • Say who tagged me
  • Tell where I hang out, and include links
  • Tag two other blog owners to keep this going; in return you’ll discover new places to hang out online in the process

Tracey Lawton is the person who tagged me.

I mostly hang out online on Virb, Flickr, Last.FM, twitter, MySpace, and IM.
