Sayonara–Until Next Time! October 25, 2009 at 4:27 pm ( Farewell. How have you been touched by emerging media? Was there a moment in your life when you asked yourself, How did I ever live before a cell phone? Do you think that we’ll look back in several years and ask ourselves this same question about Facebook and Twitter? October 25, 2009 at 7:13 pm. I am bummed that this is the end! It makes me look forward to the day that I also take this class! I often laugh at my grandparents and their use of their ...

Engagement… Not What it Used to Be! October 11, 2009 at 8:23 pm ( Engagement. I was recently drawn to an article concerning the world’s top 100 engaging brands. The point of this interesting article is simple. In order to be the best today, you have to be engaging. What does engaging mean? Where would companies like Starbucks be if they weren’t engaging consumers through iTunes? Where would Barack Obama be if he hadn’t engaged constituents through Facebook? Is it a newspaper online? A feed on Facebook?

It’s a New Year, and a New Me! | Mergie with Scissors

It’s a New Year, and a New Me! February 9, 2010 at 11:42 am ( Health and Wellness. So, in 2010 I decided to follow the mantra, “New Year, New You! 8221; I have to say though, I really dislike that phrase. Why did someone come up with this idea that just because it’s a new year, you have to renew yourself? Why can’t you find a new you in March or August? Anyway, that’s beside the point. The point is: it’s a new year and a new me! I started small with just a couple workouts a week. I do Pilates with a ...

Being on my own, I’ve discovered that I can do some extraordinary things (what seems extraordinary to me, most likely will not to you–dog vomit all over the carpet, disgusting! All of this being said, I’ve decided that I need to try to turn over a new leaf in my alone time. While I can safely say that I’ll never...Who says I ca...

How much time is too much time? February 4, 2010 at 4:20 pm ( Social Networking. So, it’s been two weeks since we last chatted, and in that time I’ve conducted a major event in my admissions office at work, written four papers for my two master’s classes, conducted countless class discussions, admitted a ridiculously high number of students to the university I work for, and so on! Also since we last spoke, I’ve spent a considerable amount of time on Facebook and Twitter. To this end, about a week ago I d...

Ready or Not, Here it Comes! October 14, 2009 at 11:07 pm ( Mobile. How far can emerging marketing take over our lives? And especially the ones that we can’t get rid of? How many of us have received messages from our cell phone carriers about new towers in the area, special offers on products for our phone, and reminders about upgrades? We can’t avoid these messages because, obviously, they have our number! Nearly everyone has a mobile phone and uses it these days brilliant idea to reach them in that way!
