Let's Think 'We' Not 'Me'

This video is so funny, you just have to look at it. But before you watch it, I just want to say that I feel most of us, if we are really, [ really ], hon­est with our­selves, will admit to hav­ing been on either end of this equa­tion at one time or another. The les­son to me here is; show respect the other per­son, whether you are the client or the ser­vice provider. Both sides need to respect each other’s need to sur­vive and even flour­ish if pos­si­ble. Both need to respect the other’s valu­able con­tri­bu­tion to their lives. The value of the work and of the per­son. It’s not sup­posed to be a bat­tle of get­ting the bet­ter of one another. We should instead work together for the ben­e­fit of each other.

Did You Know Facebook Has Secrets?

I was read­ing an arti­cle today about Face­book and there were a cou­ple of points I wanted to pass along to you.

1. Face­book lim­its the num­ber of new invites that can be sent in a day, or week. The exact num­ber of invi­ta­tions that are allowed is a Face­book secret (appar­ently), but accord­ing to my research, if you exceed this secret amount you can get booted.

2. Face­book per­mits only 5000 friends (from my research). If you go over that a wait­ing list will be cre­ated. How­ever, they can always become a ‘fan’.

So do go out and pros­per at Face­book, but do keep this in mind.

WeFollow

From the title of my last blog post you would think I knew about “WeFol­low”, but I just bumped into this today.

I was on Face­book today and a poster men­tioned wefol­low so I decided to check out what it is.

WeFol­low is a Twit­ter direc­tory that has just been launched — still in beta they say.

You can reg­is­ter for free.

You fill in 3 tags that describes your inter­ests and peo­ple can find you. You can also find folks with sim­i­lar interests.

In your ‘What are you doing?’ box, type in @wefollow as the first thing you type, to bring it to their atten­tion. Then you type in a hash­tag — the # sym­bol, imme­di­ately fol­lowed by any key­word you want to be listed under.

Cur­rently there are no help pages on WeFol­low but if you want some good info on it check out Danny Sullivan’s post here:

Check it WeFol­low here:

p.s. I added myself as web­de­signer, graph­ics­de­signer, entre­pre­neur
Come Fol­low :-)
