Announcing New Social Media Blog
BY JASON CORMIER
Just taking advantage of the web property here to announce (yet another) new social media blog at http://www.vistrata.com. It's actually Jason Cormier's personal blog. And this shameless promotion is coming from, you guessed it, Jason Cormier.
Why a personal blog? Because now more than ever, the wave of social media provides an increasing ability to personally connect with others while naturally building search visibility and relationships. Through the expertise of individuals, companies can be part of communities.
An additional obvious draw is simply being able to share what you have to personally offer. We all love the community aspect of Capture the Conversation here at Room 214 - but each of us has our own skills, interests, opinions, etc.
For example, JennyU likes playing games on facebook and informing me of the Santa Barbara surf report when the waves get big (and I'm sitting here in Boulder). Stepan likes following any and every piece of news on Rage Against the Machine. Ben likes fantasizing about riding his bike again while popping percacets to ease the pain of his recent snowboard accident (brutally falling off a chairlift). Ingrid looks forward to spin class, and one day proving Stepan wrong. And James, well, James is all over the place.
Ha, you know you love it! I'll be sure to let you know when the next big swell hits (nothing really of note since end of Feb. when waves knocked people off the Breakwater!). We'll keep a board ready for you! ;)
I've got Endless Wormhole up and going: http://www.endlesswormhole.com
