Ask & Answer Questions

“I've had luck simply posting that "I'm looking for connections in such and such a city", when I'm headed there for a sales trip. It's been really great to have referrals or for people whom I've forgotten about show up. Especially when I'm busting into a new market and mostly cold calling. I'm in Austin right now and 3 of the 9 appts. that I have while I'm here are from Linked In leads.”

“A hazard of social networking is people will read what you write.”

“…everyone participating in today’s event, including those in the auditorium with you

this morning, just received their first paycheck of 2009 containing a 5% pay cut…”

“…with all due respect, to continue the context of your post; true confession:

many of my peers and I don’t see much relevance between your presentation this morning and the work we do in Employee

Communications.”

“Two days ago I made a comment on Twitter that was an emotional response to

a run in I had with an intolerant individual.”

http://www.thekeyinfluencer.com/channel/2009/01/16/twittersituation/

“Everyone knows that at 140 characters, Twitter does not allow for context....”

“My most recent situation underscores the need for important dialogue around

how we use this space.”

“Cisco Fatty”

"Cisco just offered me a job! Now I have to weigh the utility of a fatty paycheck against the daily commute to San Jose

and hating the work.”

“…I have 45 friends. I know all of them. They know me. 95% of them have lived in a dorm or house with me. I practically can’t offend them, although I sometimes try.”

http://www.theconnor.net/

“…Time Levad and @timmylevad are two different people.”

“Am @I more of a mass-media channel than a human being? Do @I act as such?”

“For people who knew nothing more of me than that 140 characters of text I’d

written, it would be ridiculous for me to be angry with anyone misinterpreting what I

said.”
