This is AWESOME news, even if it's not. Hell, especially if it's not. Carry on.

Thank you! Very informative. Now I have a clue what all this means. And, oh, I have a Samsung S8+, so don't go looking at me when your connection goes south :) Jeer at those Apple geeks.

Maybe it's just me...so many comments before mine that don't mention some images don't match the context of the post. What happened?

By the way, it's not a criticism. Just a "am I missing something?"

Great tips, too. Thank you.

Re: Jack Dorsey Explains Glitch That Caused Twitter Users to Automatically Follow @POTUS

They didn't fix it. They made me follow both. But it wasn't simultaneous. Friday, I was following @potus44 only, today both.

It's 1:30pm and still no real updates? Are they still "sheltering in place?"

Now helicopters are overhead...

Does Post Planner still integrate INSIDE Facebook? Because I'm not seeing that.

It's too bad there isn't a way to use one service primarily and when the primary site is unavailable, the "service" switches over to the secondary site. KInd of a fault tolerance for URL redirects.

Put another way, there's your million dollar idea!

Re: What Everybody Misunderstands about the ROI of Social Media

Bill Davis — Tue, 01 Jul 2014 14:00:11 -0000

What is the ROI on a roadside billboard? You may think you know, but you don't. You can't, 100%. You may be able to get to 100% on the good side (revenue) by using tracking info, but you don't know how many people you pissed off by putting up that sign in front of the beautiful [insert object here].

ROI is almost totally worthless and immeasurable.

I totally agree with this - as long as you're adding value, who the hell cares what the source is?

I'd be a jerk if I had great information to share and didn't share it (as long as it's not the secret formula to Coca Cola).

SYS - Share Your (ahem) Stuff!

Truth be told, I didn't like Unroll.me, either.

Re: How to Tackle Content Marketing Challenges Through Curation

Bill Davis — Tue, 17 Dec 2013 21:25:37 -0000

I like the idea of "you can't do it all" (in your post) coupled with "give 'em what they want" (my philosophy). Curation offers the best of all worlds.

That was a brilliant post! The sad (strange?) thing is, that's how you really do it. And it's not really "fake it 'til you make it." IMHO.

There isn't a day that goes by that I don't use Skype. It's a highly-valuable tool that I really don't want to try to live without.

Re: iAcquire Banned From Google After Link Buying Allegations

Bill Davis — Fri, 25 May 2012 10:27:08 -0000

I'm convinced Google doesn't know what they're doing. It's somewhat understandable, too, because they are so big and there are a lot of moving parts. Plus, they have conflicting business objectives (paid search versus organic search).

(You can buy links if they're from Google, but not if they're from somebody else---if not already, some Congress person will take the stance that this is anti-competitive behavior and WAHM! another lawsuit for Google.)

Furthermore, even IF a company buys some links, it may still well have the most relevant and useful page for a given search term, bought links or not.

If Google de-indexes (or whatever term they choose to use) the site, then didn't they just run counter to their own proclamation?

It's as if the penalty is more important to them than giving their users what they think they want. SPITE comes to mind.

Re: iAcquire Banned From Google After Link Buying Allegations

Bill Davis — Fri, 25 May 2012 09:34:57 -0000

Google is in reactive mode and I believe that they will worsen their own self-made situation before people leave in droves.

"Buying links" -- what exactly does that mean, anyway? Most of these agencies "rent links" --- is there any distinction between the two?

And what about barter (i.e., reciprocal links or some other transaction where money doesn't trade hands)?I think this situation only points out flaws in Google's own algorithm. Their entire ranking concept may have to be rethought (i.e., maybe inbound links really don't matter or ought not to be considered).

Asking the janitor at NASA how rocket propulsion works is along the same lines. Most people go to work, sit in meetings all day, and know less about their company than outsiders who have to deal with the 8000 pound gorilla on a daily basis...

Thanks, Thom! Part 2 was published yesterday as well. I spent nearly all day creating those 2 posts!
