Twitter Me This: Weekly Updates for 2010-05-30

  • can't believe how easily she gets buried in email & kicking herself for not investing time to find an assistant. Must do this…soon. #
  • @jeremymeyers: Yep, she used to help w/ SMC back in the day. I want someone local in SF for various reasons. /waves to @chelpixie in reply to jeremymeyers #
  • It will be no contest –> RT @scottschablow: I'll bet the series finale for '24' will be better than #LOST #
  • is surprised at number of big brands who will jump at chance to host a tech party but can't find money for educational programs. #priorities #
  • And @zephoria writes another jewel: "Quitting Facebook is pointless; challenging them to do better is not." http://bit.ly/a8k4dw #
  • Congrats to my boy @ccarfi who is joining the Edelman Digital Team. http://bit.ly/9MN4KV #
  • @chrisheuer: Clarification…'disappointed' to be at home with me or with the way #Lost ended? Ha. <wait, don't answer> in reply to chrisheuer #
  • @tbridge: Facebook is NOT going away anytime soon. As much as I hate their decisions, I chose to strip profile down in lieu of deleting. in reply to tbridge #
  • @tbridge: Several folks I know are not on any other platform but Facebook. I chose 'light profile' over 'delete' to stay connected w/them. in reply to tbridge #
  • @tbridge: I have never been a heavy user of Facebook (outside of SMC business), but there is still value (though minimal) there for me. in reply to tbridge #
  • @tbridge: And a less furnished house does make it less desirable to 'rob' (or in Facebook's case…advertise to). in reply to tbridge #
  • @tbridge: There are days I feel this way about Twitter too. I don't like how they do business, yet I continue to invest here too. in reply to tbridge #
  • @tbridge: Just because Twitter is not doing it today, does not mean they will not do it. Case and point: clamping down/controling ad apps. in reply to tbridge #
  • @tbridge: And Twitter working to control all search related apps. Best way to monetize their platform – key words tied to ads. in reply to tbridge #
  • I will say, though highly aware of the issues, I am still more lax in my privacy settings than I should be. (cont) #
  • (cont) However, I still expect to be able to control my privacy levels online and not have someone make those choices for me. #
  • /waves to @angeladaniello – welcome to the @smcsfsv family! FYI: next event on June 15th in San Francisco. #
  • When it comes to selling myself and/or highlighting what I do, I really suck. ::must change this:: #
  • @LYF108 @kknealing: Middle ground would be good. Look at <friends> who pimp themselves hard and I don't want to be like that. in reply to LYF108 #
  • I think the more odd bit is folks who pimp themselves hard while saying they don't do it at all. <someone needs a reality check> #
  • @jfloyd: And don't put baby in a corner. :) in reply to jfloyd #
  • I agree & will add <or how it uses YOU> –> RT @adrielhampton: It's not the size of your community that matters, it's how you use it. #

  • @pathfindernig: All is well, thank you. And how are you and the rest of SMC Nigeria doing? in reply to pathfindernig #
  • @AdeleMcAlear: was a bit surprised when we checked the weather, but happy to bring a swim suit instead of a parka. :) in reply to AdeleMcAlear #
  • @sgrandmaison: Just getting started, looking forward to visiting your fine city! <first time in Montreal> in reply to sgrandmaison #
  • Awesome –> #SMCmelb for Jun 8 sold out already – 250 atttending with talks from @katekendall @duncanriley @problogger /via @deswalsh #
  • This is the biggest plane I have ever been on. Wow. A United 747-400. Double decker. 10 rows across. But coach seats are freaking small. #
  • Or maybe I am just too fat to fly. Ha. Ok, wheels up. #
  • RT @tpholmes: #victoriatweetup on June 4th, 7pm @bardandbanker featuring #socialmediaclub founders @kristiewells and @chrisheuer #yyj #VicBC #
  • @skanwar: Glad @adelemcalear made the introduction, and happy to hear all the great things taking place in Toronto. #

  • RT @amicalmant: @ChrisHeuer about the Social Media Club with @Julien live now on @ustream. http://sn.im/webcomlive #
  • @karimacatherine: We should chat for sure. Have a couple others who've expressed interest too. As for dinner –> Pied de Cochon (OMG, yum) in reply to karimacatherine #
  • @karimacatherine: We are talking about Schwartz's for dinner tonight with a group. Wanna come play with us? in reply to karimacatherine #
  • My boy @chrisheuer getting ready to hit the main stage and dig into why we need to 'Serve the Market'. #webcommt #
  • And of course, his keynote is exactly the same time I am jumping on a conference call. Sadness. Break a leg baby!!! #webcommt #

  • @adelemcalear: Finishing up this call, expect to be in main room shortly to catch last bit of your preso [and get the camera back]. Ha. in reply to AdeleMcAlear #
  • @maya514: We went rogue and ended up at Pied de Cochon. Poutine with fois gras. OMG. Maybe Schwartz tonight. :) in reply to maya514 #
  • @missrogue doing a good job highlighting subtext around tweets. Not all drivel if you look closely. :) #
  • Books @missrogue loves: Social Intelligence, The Origins of Virtue, The Generous Man. All dig into the need to connect. #webcommt #
  • @missrogue did a survey: Out of 800 responses, 82% say they tweet about 'random thoughts'. Does not surprise me. #webcommt <brain dump> #
  • Hey @scales @dboudreau: So glad to see you today and the recommendation at Schwartz's was +++. http://bit.ly/bIIK5A #

  • @leehopkins: Looking forward to seeing SMC Adelaide come together. Expecting big things since you made me wait so long. <kidding> in reply to leehopkins #

  • See @BPGlobalPR's best tweets, in billboard format. http://bit.ly/cTrtrE /via @mtaHarlemLine #bpoilspill <brilliant really> #

  • Brown shows power of video w/Grayson Chance. Video up 2 weeks, invited to play on Ellen & got record deal. http://j.mp/bul3ZD #sfmusictech #
  • The video panel here at #sfmusictech. http://yfrog.com/jcb8aj #
  • OMG, watching a video of Ben Folds using ChatRoulette while performing live in Charlotte. Hilarious. #sfmusictech #
  • Ben Folds loves the freedom of the Internet. Finds peers/fans will decide what works best, not industry. #sfmusictech #
  • Folds takes risks. Says he has a lot of videos on YouTube that only has 10 views. Every once in a while, you get a win. #sfmusictech #
  • Pomplamoose helps musicians make video songs. So very cool. #sfmusictech #
  • Folds embraces new technologies. Loves to see what he can do with it. Good philosophy for many artists. Take risks. Expand. #sfmusictech #
  • Question presented to 2 guys who met at hackathon and created a cool music app…'Who owns the IP?'. ::crickets:: #sfmusictech #
  • Discussing .music domain. Been working on it for years to better sort the web. If interested, you can sign petition @ music.us. #sfmusictech #

  • San Francisco needs to adjust thinking from 'entertainment as a problem' to 'entertainment as an asset' /via Chris Wiltsee #sfmusictech #
  • @geekgiant: Agreed. Just feeling it hard in San Francisco as live music venues are taking a hit. Same thing happening in Seattle? in reply to geekgiant #
  • found a quiet corner and is getting some work done before diving back into #sfmusictech. If you see me, smile, but please keep walking. :) #
  • RT @yongclee: We discussed privacy today in #smcedu chat http://bit.ly/cvICMJ Here's a full transcript from @wthashtag. http://bit.ly/9bKXC9 #
  • RT @secretsushi: Social CRM panel Moderated by @Jowyang w @WendySLea @mich8elwu @JamieGrenney on the panel. Tomorrow! http://bit.ly/bZon3W #
  • Hilarious –> I don't pay Cali prices for Seattle weather. /via @TexasGirlErin <– was thinking the same this AM. #
  • has Heuer in tow and is heading to Flavors of San Francisco event. #
  • Don't understand why the hoopla over @lessconf. If you don't like the all white male panel list – just shut up and don't go. #
  • @anniemal: Well, maybe I could have done without the 'shut up', but seriously. in reply to anniemal #
  • @anniemal: 'Lives'. Plural. Love it. in reply to anniemal #
  • I don't hear a single fella complaining about the lack of penises on the @blogher speaker list. http://bit.ly/aNaweC #
  • I do support event organizers trying to diversify speaker list, but want BEST speakers available – regardless of gender or race. #
  • @tigerbeat: I love the girls who started @blogher, but not sure excluding men = answer either. #
  • @extraface: Don't think @lessconf has it all figured out, but think we can leave the pitchforks at home. People calling them racist = crazy. #
  • If conference organizers are assholes and not treating people well, that is one thing. Diversity of panelists = different argument. #
  • @extraface: Totally with you. I only want do business with people I respect and feel treat me well. try to avoid the rest. in reply to extraface #
  • @anniemal @extraface: I obviously don't know whole story, just reading top level made it look like witch hunt based on gender/race. in reply to anniemal #
  • I repeat: If conference organizers are assholes & not treating people well, that is one thing. Diversity of panelists = different argument. #
  • @JudsonCollier: So basically, the last 5 minutes were the best 5 minutes of your life, right? Ha. /cc @anniemal in reply to JudsonCollier #
  • @DearYvette: I see lack of diversity with some tech, but all the 'social' conferences I attend are actually well rounded. in reply to DearYvette #
  • Again, calling someone 'racist' because of his panel selection (white males) for @lessconf is extreme & gets us nowhere. #
  • @Wion: Interested to hear your thoughts – let me know when you have the article written. in reply to Wion #
  • @atl: Dude, we were ::this close:: – guess it means I need to come to the UK then. :) in reply to atl #
  • @extraface: I will scan the older tweets & see what was said. Are @lessconf folks seen as community leaders, conference organizers or both? in reply to extraface #
  • We all need to treat each other with respect. Inexcusable if we don't. #
  • @bangpound: Looks like @lessconf made a snarky remark about being racist/sexist and then @LauraGlu called them racist. Everyone else infers. in reply to bangpound #
  • Went back a week in tweets: From what I can tell, @lessconf is snarky and handled bad PR poorly. Still don't think witch hunt = right path. #
  • However: Don't offer an all female conference as replacement to an all male conference. That does NOT solve diversity issue. cc @lessconf #
  • Exactly @bangpound: the tweet stream around @lessconf is full of sarcasm & snarkiness, including some from @anildash who I respect. #
  • I think all conference organizers should try to build best list of speakers they can. Hopefully diverse. Sometimes it is not. Deal with it. #
  • @JGuthmann: Not saying that at all. Diversity = beliefs, gender, age, skin color. Everything, but not solely one or the other. in reply to JGuthmann #
  • needs to get out of this rabbit hole and get to work. Gah. #
  • Is heading to Altimeter offices to prep for @smcsfsv event on @socialcrm. Checking wifi, will confirm shortly if there is a livestream. #
  • Packed house for @smcsfsv tonight. Many thanks to @tunglerocks for sponsoring our event tonight. http://yfrog.com/04nbyj #
  • Says @jowyang, customers don't care what tools you use – they just want their problem fixed. #smcsfsv #
  • Conversations are the center of business. Conversations must be linked to customer records. #smcsfsv /via @TDefren #
  • I misquoted @jowyang earlier…it was 'customers don't care what DEPARTMENT you are in, they just want their problems solved' #smcsfsv #
  • Moving my tweeting to the @smcsfsv account…doing both on iPhone = tough. #
  • @davekim: Ha, so sweet of you to say. Thank you so much for coming tonight. #smcsfsv in reply to davekim #
  • @Edrowan: Exactly. ;) in reply to Edrowan #
  • @thiscollective: I use Tweetie which is fairly each to switch, but will have less errors of I focus on one account. :) #smcsfsv in reply to thiscollective #
  • Seems we are not quite ready to dive into #vrm. ::someday:: #smcsfsv #
  • RT @chrisheuer photos from last nights #smcsfsv event on #sCRM sponsored by @tunglerocks (thanks Marc!) http://ow.ly/1N7Au #
  • .@kevinmarks live-waving Google keynote with @GinaTrapani @LeoLaporte @AdamPash http://bit.ly/9Etl1g can't embed video: http://bit.ly/TmKZU #
  • Wow! –> Youtube videos will move away from using Flash technology. Adobe to be left out of the party. #googleio /via @dougpollei #
  • Sending good thoughts to @kimbirly for her surgery today. #
  • Dammit Facebook –> No more custom landing pages (unless you have 10k fans). http://bit.ly/cZ2Ela <– you really suck ass right now #
  • I'm not deleting my Facebook profile, but stripping my profile down & will not upload any new data to their network. Fucking idiots. #fb #
  • And not 24 hours later…Facebook rescinds the the 10k fan requirement on custom landing pages. http://bit.ly/9JFy5p via @addthis #
  • Thank you to everyone for the RTs on the previous posts. Lots to discuss on Facebook for sure. They make so many stupid decisions. #
  • @CarriBugbee: I honestly don't know many women who wish to speak at conferences & the ones that do, I have seen 20+ times. in reply to CarriBugbee #
  • Never make someone a priority… when they only make you an option. /via @digijeff @chrisheuer #
  • Love never fails; character never quits; and with patience and persistence; dreams do come true. –Pete Maravich #
  • @CarriBugbee: Problem with *most* SocMe conferences…I have seen same crew over and over and my girl friends don't want to speak at 'em. #
  • @CarriBugbee: I will add myself to that list too. I'm not a public speaker (and avoid it mostly). in reply to CarriBugbee #
  • That last tweet of mine is going to make this next tweet of mine seem extremely silly, or at least lowers the expectation bar… #
  • Join @chrisheuer and me at @webcomMT on May 26th as we dig into 'community building from the heart'. http://bit.ly/cBjD89 #WMTB02 #
  • …and @socialmediaclub folks in Montreal, watch out for news of a SMC tweetup next week too! <plotting now> #
  • @TDefren: Yes. Absolutely knowwhatyoumean. in reply to TDefren #
  • @JasonFalls: More annoying? Overly nice people on Facebook – fer sure. :) in reply to JasonFalls #
  • @JasonFalls: We don't get much of that in the 'big city'. <Kidding. Kind of. –> San Francisco is *not* a 'big city'. Ha.> in reply to JasonFalls #
  • @OnlineFantastic: Niceness comes in levels. Facebook always seems to be over the top and I prefer the snarkier lands of Twitter. :) in reply to OnlineFantastic #
  • is getting girlified, then heading to #mashmeet. #
  • @OnlineFantastic: a little suggestion, don't put th 'RT' when *responding* to someone otherwise it looks like something they said. in reply to OnlineFantastic #
  • Sounds like a party to me –> Chatroulette + FarmVille + Facebook = ChatVille. http://bit.ly/bI8mge /via @JessicaRMurray @mashable #
  • @lgpiper: Have no idea about 'floppy socks', but that quote was from Pistol Pete. /cc @danakirk #
  • The notes (with audio) from Monday's @socialmediaclub Local Leadership call are up –> http://bit.ly/cdxxjc #
  • Hey @scales: Heuer and I in Montreal Tuesday – Thursday next week. If your schedule allows, would love to squeeze on you (softly). #
  • @AmberCadabra: Not sure we need to *become* the people we need to reach, but rather have clear understanding of who they are/what they need. #
  • <sarcasm>I love hearing 'ideas' from folks standing at the podium not giving attribution to those *I know* they got the ideas from</sarcasm> #
  • @jeremymeyers: Ha. You can now refer to me as Ms. Kristie Washington, girl from San Francisco who stands on soap boxes & hates cherries. in reply to jeremymeyers #
  • Hard work spotlights character of people. Some turn up sleeves, some turn up noses and some don’t turn up at all. –Sam Ewing #

  • @scales: Awesomesauce. Looking forward to seeing you face:face. /cc @chrisheuer in reply to scales #
  • wonders why I see more @ replies in the Twitter iPhone app http://bit.ly/9nhSLz than I do on the Twitter desktop http://bit.ly/bVhbDv ??? #
  • @curiousbanker: Just funny it is the mobile app producing better results. I would have thought the desktop would. in reply to curiousbanker #
  • Not sure @khartline. Seems like sidebar is for Twitters' auto retweet, not when someone does manual 'RT', right? #
  • @khartline: But worth investigating as it's manual RT's that do seem to be missing. Just odd there is different behaviour on their apps. in reply to khartline #
  • Looks like Twitter's desktop search is broken in many ways. Whatever. Other things to lose sleep over… #
  • So very happy for @thepartycow and Molly. Now tracking a Jan 4, 2011 due date!! –> http://flic.kr/p/83Fj5r #
  • CNN bouncing from BP #oilspill lies to @drrandpaul craziness. Scares me to say I don't know which story is worse. #
  • considers sending old dev shop a $20k invoice for her time/money spent cleaning up their mistakes. #
  • Felt good getting outside and getting hands a little dirty in the garden today. Long ways to go, but it is finally showing some promise. #
  • OMG, someone is having a good time with the @BPGlobalPR account (and I will simply say 'thank you'). #
  • The @BPGlobalPR account is a perfect case study of why brands should monitor this thing called 'the internet'. Pay attention people. #
  • And I know not every business can staff enough folks to watch *every* socnet, 10 minutes/day on Google would bring much of this to light. #
  • Adding: If BP was honest about what happened & damage being caused by #oilspill, I am sure this @BPGlobalPR 'fake' account would not exist. #
  • Many lessons to be learned in #oilspill: Don't lie. Fix your mistakes quickly. Have a crisis plan in place BEFORE a crisis happens. #
  • @Green_Tsunami: Lessons do work for ALL brands, but agree Toyota could have faired better <publicly> had they been honest from the start. in reply to Green_Tsunami #

Happy 94th birthday gramps!

Heuer and I took a quick trip to Miami last week to spend some time with his grandpa who is turned 94 on April 29th.

Little bugger is moving a little slower these days, but as feisty as ever.

Grandpa's 94th Birthday - 18

Was great to see Tony (Heuer’s cousin” and his kids while there and getting four generations of family in a photo (gramps, Heuer’s uncle Jack, Heuer and Tony, and Tony’s kids). Lots of testosterone in the room. :)
