How secure should I feel when using Facebook’s privacy settings to determine which groups of friends can or cannot see particular photos? No, gathering with our friends, sharing news and planning events is not new. Facebook while I do use it for business, I am more social with my various groups than on LinkedIn.

This can take the form of a discount card, some kind of point system, to keeping a list of your best customers and having an event in their honor. Creating, marketing, and following through with this event or program is the point in this campaign. Instead think about private groups. Don’t jump in and make it up as you go.

Is it really new to wonder why some other group is invading “your&# space? Does technology “belong&# to any one group or generation? Then, I realized we could have a little fun with this and allowed my thoughts to wander to an older form of communication – radio. Are Facebook and Twitter just the new radio?

The first time I posted an event to Eventbrite , it took me an entire day – one from-morning-til-night day. Creating that safe environment where the only agenda is helping each other, thereby gaining more for yourself than could be imagined, is one of the key concepts behind the groups I lead. I pushed myself. I was frustrated.

When you have a group of people submitting their work, there is an awareness that it isn’t just one idea that will work, so the result is a higher quality of work. Crowdsourcing is an useful model because it can be used by any group for any reason. As they saying goes, competition breeds excellence.

While my social media speaking engagements vary enough that I alter my material quite a bit from event to event, there is definitely a batch of one liners that I tend to incorporate. Event attendees often ask me if I have them written down, and I never have, until now. They are either memorable, instructive, or both (hopefully).
