A few weeks ago I received a message in Facebook that I had won an iPhone. A cause for celebration, right? At first I was skeptical, but a quick google search showed the sender of the message to be the community manager for Wetpaint wiki’s. Now we all know how reliable & dependable community managers [...]
ATT & iPhone cause pain
Day in the life of a Community Manager
How often do you pause & look back on the path that brought you to where you’re at? Do you assess the challenges that you overcame or feel thankful for the events that brought you to this point?
People around me realize pretty quickly that I’m high energy & that I’m always planning, doing & evaluating. [...]
Trials & Tribulations of Technology
I’ll start with the joys of technology first in case you don’t want to read to the end.
1. My first project was put up on ACDSee’s intranet today!
Ten pages & it’s titled ‘Maximizing Customer Communications’
I’m excited to get started on it.
2. I won an iPhone on Facebook - seriously! it was confirmed today
Once it [...]
Halloween 2007
This post is dedicated to my sister (who was dumbfounded yesterday to hear that we bought costumes). To explain - we are very conservative. But on Sunday when our daughter went back to college, she really pressed for a costume dinner tonite to celebrate Halloween.
So for all of you with little ones, take [...]
Weekend Connections
Do you have traditions in your family? Sunday dinner has become important to us ever since my daughter started dating. She’s a freshman in college now, so it’s even more important. I enjoy cooking a big dinner & then relaxing with everyone. This morning was impromptu in that we invited her boyfriend’s family to [...]
Victoria, BC
I live in Minnesota, so the periodic trips to the ACDSee offices offer an opportunity to try new cuisine. Victoria, BC offers a huge variety to choose from & I look forward to future trips.
It’s impossible to get fresh seafood where I live - it’s all frozen. The Blue Crab Restaurant in my hotel offered [...]
Photos from my workday
People have been commenting about missing my presence in the past two days (thanks guys!). I’ve been very, very busy getting settled into my role as Community Manager with ACDSee. But I do have some photos to share (& more coming!)
On Tuesday I woke up to a cruise ship parked outside of my hotel window! [...]
offline for a few days
It seems that I will be going offline for a few days & just answering select email. My week with my new company is going to be busy & intense. (Although it was me that set up all these meetings maybe!)
My trip to the office was quite memorable. The first two flights went fine, but [...]
Milestones, Momentum & Social Media
My blog was one month old this past week & it’s time to note the momentum & milestones. I think it’s worth celebrating! And maybe chronicling the significant points on my path will help others that are interested.
People have been asking me how did you arrive here? This past week the feedback from people adding [...]
Communicating with Outlook
I did something really stupid yesterday! But I can laugh at myself, so join me please.
For 8 years the tech department in my workplace was very pro Mozilla & Netscape. So that’s what we used & with library branches spread all over we didn’t have a need for shared calendar.
Fast forward to now and [...]
