This happens to be the topic of a post on Friday. Stay tuned! xoxoxo

This is such a big subject for a comment, but I am offended when someone tries to craft a formula for job-seeking-success using social media tools.

- If four-fifths of your tweets should be business-related, should four-fifths of your life be business-related?
- Does data exist to show that women who tweet too much about their cats can't find a job?
- Should we start stripping away our personal lives and become robots that are wholly dedicated to enhancing shareholder value and profitability?

Must write a little more about social media & finding a job in a more thoughtful way, but I totally hated these tips.

Thanks, Joe.

My husband called from Japan and asked, "What are you doing?"

I said, "I'm being a new media success story."

Hahahaha, thanks for that line. xoxoxo

There's another great blog that talks about why HR should branch out beyond traditional media sites and embrace social networking.

Jennifer McClure is the author and here's the site:

I like the idea of naps, pretzel rods, and then maybe a little futzing around on the computer, which exhausts a normal person so another nap is required.

Wow, you're lucky you weren't hurt.

I feel sorry for weird people like that, akshully. What goes wrong in someone's life where they are in a parking lot, in the rain, harassing a guy in a car? Crazy dude needs help.

Wait, I just can't mail my total comp statements and hope my employees feel pretty good about just being employed?

Also, I love Total Compensation in the Age of Cholera. I also love One Hundred Years of Meetings and Chronicle of Team Building Foretold.

Great books, all of them!

Re: 10 Things You Need to Tell Your Employees About This Year’s Bonus

There’s no hidden money; there’s no slush fund that someone else got.

I can't tell you how many times that slush fund has been referenced in my discussions with employees. Many don't trust that their executive management team is also paid for performance.

I am so disappointed by the new format. I love Morning Briefing & Press Pool, but the rest is disheartening.

* Ron Silver & the Stand Up! show are horrible and don't seem to mesh with the mission of providing unbiased coverage.

*The BLOGCAST segment at :20 and :50 is intolerable. Seriously. Shut that woman up.

*They removed great shows (1600) and there is limited *original* content on the channel beyond the weekend podcasts.

I'm not a Washington insider and I loved the channel. I'm okay with change, but this change is for the birds.

YOU BETTER BE HAPPY BECAUSE YOUR JOB DEPENDS ON IT.

Yikes, this market is so weird and causing people to behave like animals. Who's leading, these days? Not HR.
