The DMing thing is just out-of-control! In January, I thinned out over 700 followers who engaged in a lot of the practices mentioned in the post (below). Twitter is a powerful communication tool – but it requires PEOPLE to be behind the message/s – not some automaton widget sending out nonsense DMs (have you read some of these a-w-f-u-l tweets? — how (sometimes) desperate.

I have spent the last few days revising my social media tool box and WordPress is the engine for this project.

Don’t get me wrong — I love Mac’s Keynote software — but Prezi is just a different presentation animal altogether. I can’t wait to see this on the video projector! I am using the Education license version of Prezi — but I might upgrade to the Pro version soon. Yes, it is a Flash product – so you need to have the Flash Player installed to view. Use the DVD control buttons (bottom of frame) to advance the presentation. I booted PowerPoint out of presentation tool box when Google Apps rolled out it presentation suite. Prezi just might become my default presentation gadget of choice.

Social Media, who me? on Prezi
