I love it when a company does one thing, and does it extremely well. Cloud storage is definitely a growing technology, but for the most part, too complicated for the masses to adopt. Most people outside of tech still don’t get it, and probably won’t for some time. It’s a shame too, because storage in the cloud is so stinking convenient. Not having to worry about carrying a portable hard drive, thumb drive, or the right device is extremely liberating. And no one does ...

Dear Twitter: Please Add Auto DM Blocking
It’s no secret that Twitter’s schedule of feature enhancements is fairly lacking and infrequent. I suppose when you grow as quickly and as large as they have, and you’re a free service, you don’t necessarily have to do too much. But if there was one stinking feature I so desperately wish they would add is a way to block Auto DMs. I’m not entirely sure if this is even possible, or how it would be done, but I’ve got to believe there would be a relatively easy way to do this. ...

The sooner the better I say. There really is no reason to have to be dealing with word documents and pdfs anymore with the rise of Linked In (or even leading jobsites like Monster). Any HR department with any common sense must certainly see the value in being able to simply get the information they need quickly without having to dig through email attachments. There is a tremendous amount of value to having your resume be a living and breathing entity read here to know more. It gives ...
Groupon 2.0: Deal Personalization
I’m a big fan of the local deal craze. It’s really such a great concept and simple. One great deal a day, take it or leave it. So many reasons it works well. Consumers aren’t slammed with all kinds of things to buy every day, and businesses get one day exclusives on eyeballs and potential new customers. It’s a win-win, and the craze is growing fast. I also keep my eyes on Living Social and Tippr to name a few. Groupon is taking it to another level today with ...
5 Ways To Become Social Media Relevant
Social Media has certainly become THE trend over the past year or so, and everyone and their sister is jumping on board. Tweets, blog posts, and articles are peppered with how to-s, trends, and best practices. Hell, even I’m guilty of over saturating my twitter feed with social media tweets. But there’s a reason for all of this, and quite simply it’s because technology is providing us the ability to communicate in ways that we’ve never been able to before. It’s giving the little guy the ...
