One of the things people ask me about most is the fine line between personal and professional on Social Media.

I tell them not to worry, as long as they don’t act [...]

The Social Media eureka moment for me came about six months after signing up for Twitter. I had been using Facebook for a couple of years and had tried blogging too. I was fascinated by this new social frontier, though it had not really proved itself valuable to me as a professional yet.
Then, a recruiter [...]

Recent adventures on Empire Avenue have left me thinking about why I use various social sites.
The more Eaves I earn on Empire Avenue, the more investments I can make and the more people I can then connect to. That is what will make the site useful to me in the long term. At this stage, [...]

It’s good for my multiple social-personality disorder.

{EAV_BLOG_VER:b864c0af18ce0675} This code should let me add this blog to my Empire Avenue profile.

I do not hold much store in Klout as a measure of influence, but it can be an interesting stat for statistics sake. FollowerRate looks at your Twitter followers and ranks them in order of their Klout score, but then it goes on to do something much more interesting…

I have seen a lot written about publishing ALL your Twitter updates to LinkedIn and how much it gets on everybody’s nerves. All those hashtags and retweets on the LinkedIn homepage must be really confusing to a non-Twitter user.
