Re: An Idiot Calling The Kettle Black

Tabitha Grace Smith — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 13:23:48 -0000

Classy move to not "out" the company in question. I think it just shows that you're not being petty about it, but addressing a serious PR problem that needs to be addressed. Harvesting your email off of a request is just so bogus. But the name calling was just beyond uncool.

I learned a long time ago to treat everyone like royality because you never know what "lesser" person you're talking to can really screw up your day. Therefore calm, tactful and professional is always the way to go.

I've had these conversations with bloggers and happily took them off the databases I've created. But at least I made sure they actually blogged about stuff first.

All hail the power of the LOLCats.

Re: Shapeways lets artists print 3-D models of their creations

Great step for consumers - kind of like putting the power in the hands of the artist. Imagine the amount of unique gifts you could make or shows 3D artists could put on!

I haven't gotten anything from Qwitter in awhile as well.. I really appreciated the service. Hrm.

Re: Five Lessons for New (and old) Bloggers

Tabitha Grace Smith — Tue, 29 Jul 2008 11:33:05 -0000

I can't tell you the number of bloggers I've stopped reading because of the ego. I prefer looking up to people who are smart, intelligent, witty, but don't have the attitude that they're too good for me. Only people who are too good for me are people who risk their own safety to keep people safe. Or people who give their lives to help those less fortunate than themselves.

Re: Thanks! And a Podcast Interview Link!

No wonder I get vertigo -- I'm on Twitter the people mover!

Thanks for the article Josh! I can't wait to see what the SolidSmack readers design!

Re: Ask the Reader: Does 3D CAD Make You Dream in 3D?

Tabitha Grace Smith — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 17:08:15 -0000

I've had dreams about work SO often. When I was doing a lot of graphic work I'd be cutting and pasting things in my sleep. It was annoying.

That's fascinating, I'll have to send it on to the powers that be. :)

Fantastic, I'm going to have to find this book. I love his quote on not lying to my wife, it's so true. If advertising and PR could only adopt that into it's core being.

Re: How Will My Social Media Campaign Be Measured?

Tabitha Grace Smith — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 11:16:59 -0000

Great article. I had a client ask this just the other day and this makes it easy to outline the "It's more than just traffic".

Re: Social Media Marketing and the Skeptics

Tabitha Grace Smith — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 12:07:24 -0000

Yes, yes yes. When I attended the Podcast and New Media Expo last August I was annoyed that most of the panels were "how do we make money off this?"

I think too many people suffer from "instant gratification" syndrom. They get one giant hit, or are overpromised the "wonderful power of Social Media" - that they expect even with a bad product or no news to get a lot of attention.

Re: Do Ad/PR Agencies Get Social Media?

Tabitha Grace Smith — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 23:37:16 -0000

But what do those same PR companies say about their clients? It's easy for PR agencies to become the whipping boy of a client who are expecting magic results from social media.

Re: How I got over 600 NEW Twitter Followers in 24 hours - Let me help you!

Tabitha Grace Smith — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 19:28:19 -0000

Twitter is all about the conversation - if you're gonna talk with those people or react to them - then I say go for it. If you're just doing it for the numbers, than people won't appreciate it.

Re: Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans and Ad Council PSA

That's really awesome. I love when social network sites can help bring people together and help them find the solutions and support they need.

I love the lighting and composition. Great work. Gives me a feeling of expectation.

Re: 10 Signs You Need A Social Media Vacation

Tabitha Grace Smith — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 11:50:26 -0000

Hilarious list (of course, it's probably only funny to those of us who thrive on social media or know someone who is).

I'm one of those people who use the html tags, particularly , but that's more for people who don't know my brand of sarcasm. ;)

Re: Mixing Quakers and Politics? - The Quaker Ranter

Tabitha Grace Smith — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 11:42:54 -0000

Don't you believe though that faith should inform your cultural world-view? I'm sure there's a lot of gray areas that you an agree to disagree with other Quakers, but it would be a shame to try to dismiss your faith when you talk about your culture.

Great post! Best way to be a friend is be friendly and participate. A List bloggers are just people after all.

I should get coffee because I'm a social media AND coffee junkie and I understand how to get the word out if it's any good ;)

Totally underwhelmed.

As stated above spam blogs will have a field day.

The only real rule I learned in college. Learn the rules, know why they're rules, and then break them accordingly.

Re: SlideShare’s April Fool’s Prank: Cruel, Or Just Unusual?

Tabitha Grace Smith — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 14:34:04 -0000

I love it. I love April Fool's and it's hard to pull one over on people -- but Slideshow did it. So Kudos to them.

Really? Just $500? For all of the advertising they're getting from the contest applicants the prize should be MUCH higher.

I agree! If you have a vision, people will flock around you.

Re: Bob- The Next Chapter

Tabitha Grace Smith — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 11:37:00 -0000

Sure Bob didn't follow the rules. And he's paying the price for not following them.

But they're dumb rules.

Social media engagement should not fall on a "group' tasked to do it - it should fall to anyone who has the passion to help people. Companies should realize that they are their best PR. If I love my company and I engage in social media I'll create more and more passion and 'free' or close to free word of mouth for my company.

Let the group have their 'social media engagement' but let Bob do his thing too.

Sounds like it's time for someone to step up and give Bob a better job.

Re: Pirate Moves - Pass The Mic

Tabitha Grace Smith — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 14:15:57 -0000

Awesome advice. I see so many people fall on their face when they're at a Tech meetup/group event because they don't know HOW to talk to people. I'd also add "don't hog time." You're more likely to be remembered if you don't hang on someone. Better to do a few bursts of conversation throughout an event (bringing people for them to meet is a great way to do that) than stand there like an idiot the whole time. :D

Re: Scoble has a productivity problem

Tabitha Grace Smith — Tue, 27 May 2008 10:29:08 -0000

I've stopped trying to explain why I enjoy being online and on social networks to people who don't get it. (Or why I have two iPods, a laptop, a cell phone, a digital camera and drool over the latest issue of Wired).

Trying to explain it to people who don't have that same passion? That is the real waste of time. ;)

Great article though Scoble, you had me at "conversation". And I think the people don't get it, don't realize the power of "conversation" with people you may never meet in person or really know that well. I adore it, other people just scratch their heads and yell, "get off my lawn with your crazy rock and roll people."

Re: Are You a Social Media Scientist?

Tabitha Grace Smith — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 12:54:27 -0000

I love this. I get the same reaction from people when I say I'm a Social Media Strategist (well after the "what's that mean"). And it's not as easy as it sounds. To rise above and give the best strategies, to make them work for the client and for the consumers... and to keep up with everything? Science man.

Plus I stare at a lot of excel sheets.

Re: Win A Prize And Help The SPCA

Tabitha Grace Smith — Fri, 12 Dec 2008 14:14:18 -0000

Voted for you! Yay animals. I rescued both my cats, so I feel for the SPCA and love helping them out.

I'd love all of the prizes, but the School Days journal is awesome. Or the camera! Red is my favorite color.
