There are a lot of self-styled experts and gurus out there – perhaps most especially, of late, in the Internet marketing field (which of course now includes social media). Some of them do know their stuff, but many could learn a thing, or three – perhaps even just rolling up their sleeves and actually doing [...]
Updating Facebook from Twitter – selectively!
Just a quick post for those of you who want to select which of your Twitter updates then update your Facebook status. Updating from Twitter with everything is simple to do, but most of us, especially if we use Twitter and Facebook for different things, should be more selective! A young man in Oxford, Andy [...]
Be Sure of Your ReTweets
Some musings after recent having a retweet affect some people’s view of me, in a negative way.

ReTweeting on Twitter
I like to retweet the tweets of those I follow if I think they’re worth passing on and sharing. Of course we have to be prudent with this or else we’re likely to bore the pants off our followers, and likely lose a number of them too! Today I was asked directly if I recommend [...]
