An Open Letter to the Twitternet

Dear Everyone,

Please do not click on links saying someone found a pic of you online, with the phrases OMG or LOL.

While I’m sure there are many FANTASTIC pictures of you online (LOLOMG!), these particular messages are phishing scams.

Basically they get you hacked, and then in turn you DM everyone you’re mutual connections with on Twitter.

Stop the madness, go look in the mirror.

Hearts and Ponies,

+drew

Pout (Interplanetary Klout Scorification *TM*): Ohhai Pluto, we’ve recognized you as a thought leader in planets, wanna join our solar system?
Pluto: Wow, really? Where do I sign up????
Pout (Interplanetary Klout Scorification *TM*): Just log in with your Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, InstaPlanet, etc accounts!
Pluto: WOW! I’m the luckiest meteor in the world!
Pout (Interplanetary Klout Scorification *TM*): No…luckiest PLANET, now…thanks to us.
Pluto: WHOAH!

Two weeks later:
Pout (Interplanetary Klout Scorification *TM*): Ohhai, Pluto…sorry, but you haven’t tweeted much, so we’re gonna have to take back that whole planet perk.
Pluto: WTF? There’s a Disney dog named after me!
Pout (Interplanetary Klout Scorification *TM*): Yeah that’s because of us. Thanks for your support!
Pluto: But, but…who’s replacing me?
Pout (Interplanetary Klout Scorification *TM*): @Scobleizer, his Pout score is 94.
Pluto: *cries*

5 Web Tools to Enhance Your Online Sales Strategy

I’m very proud of Jon for writing this piece.  It wasn’t an easy process for him.  But he stuck it out and trusted me. I don’t know the folks from IHadCancer yet, but we’re planning on changing that.  I’m proud of what they’re doing. Remember… “Social” is an easy word to throw around these days. Olanoff wishes the Web didn’t take it so lightly. He’d prefer we talk about social good or social reform, rather than social media. “I don’t know what the phrase ‘social media’ means anymore,” he says. “I don’t think anybody does. I’ve always felt that what was missing [from that phrase] is the social part. The human aspect of it is severely lacking.”
