The average person spends considerable time on their preferred social networks – Facebook and Twitter topping the list. Depending on the demographics, one can’t ignore Pinterest and Instagram. If, however, you are an online professional, the chances are that you handle many more social media platforms, and probably, you also handle more than one account for each.
For some, juggling time and platforms is an easy task. Sure enough, if you are responsible for only a two to three platforms and the same number of accounts. Still, those little tasks spread all over the place can easily add up and make your job troublesome. The trick is to take advantage of the numerous social media tools out there. [Read more…]
Is Google Plus a Failure?
Google Plus
Just like many other Google products, Google Plus made waves when it was first announced, even more so when it actually launched. There is, however, this thing about many a Google product. It seems some of them never really go past beyond the initial ripples, and they eventually die off.
This is what many people are saying about Google Plus, which initially was touted as THE alternative to Facebook.

When my boss explained the concept of Pinterest, I was not overly excited, but I did sign up. Sad to say, I didn’t – and don’t – really spend a lot of time on there.

So Pinterest is the hottest thing in the online scene it seems. People have been dubbing it the hottest web site in 2012.

The Hottest Web Site of 2012: Pinterest
By now, you probably have seen Pinterest one time too many to ignore it. This relatively new web site is making waves, and huge waves they are! I wouldn’t be surprised if you already have an account and are using it on a regular basis.
I started using Pinterest personally some time last year when a friend mentioned it to me, but I have not been that active. As I have said before, I can barely keep up with all my social networking accounts! With all the attention that Pinterest is receiving, though, one simply cannot set it aside. [Read more…]
