Will the Gorilla Kill Twitter?

September 15, 2009 By Dee Gardner Leave a Comment

I believe the twitter bird is going to die. The benefit just doesn’t seem to be there. There is a lot of talking and almost no listening.

Twitter can just barely be called social media. It’s more about me media.

I have been using facebook now for about a year. and twitter for a couple of months. I like facebook because I am connecting and having meaningful conversations with friends. There is a dialogue.

Twitter is just a bunch of people shouting in a really crowded room. Occasionally you will catch a conversation but soon it is drowned out by the yelling.

Another reason, and probably the biggest reason is that Facebook is now making money. twitter, well not so much.

What do you think?

So Many Cool Things on the Web

September 8, 2009 By Dee Gardner Leave a Comment

Everyday I am discovering cool new things on the web.  I am going to add more of these things to my posts.   For instance there was a cool article in the Wall Street Journal about getting jobs from tweeting. Here is the link Job tweeting

I will continue to add these things.  Remember I am also in the process of changing my focus from just web development consulting, which I am good at to  also include my superpower of compensation consulting where I show business owners how to get their employees to think and act like owners.  It’s incredible what can be done with a few small changes to a business.

Web technology is something that can make these changes easier and quicker.  That is why it is so important that I stay current and devote some of my focus to web technology.
