The Innovative Ducks a Little Like Social Media?
Have you watched the Oregon Ducks play football this year? If not, you're really missing out on. As I watch how innovative Coach Kelly and the Oregon Ducks are on the field I can't help but think of the comparisons with social media. Some of the traditional football fans and writers complain that they're offense is gimmicky, that it's more like a video game than 'real' football. Does that sound familiar?

How the Google / Facebook War Affects You
Do you remember life before fax machines, email and searching online? Do you remember making an appointment to see your doctor to get an opinion without being able to Google professional and everyday opinions on your computer first? It's like a movie you watched years ago with a plot that's vaguely familiar but has no relevance to your current life. That's how you'll think of the current web versus the social web that's expanding daily.

One Year of Hard Labor for a Tweet
For all the time I complain about someone putting something terrible on Twitter, like how their latest trip into the bathroom went, I forget how lucky I have it that I can make fun of that and not get hurt by anyone.

Do we really need Facebook's social inbox?
So the splashy headlines the media seem to be going with, at least in the UK, are along the lines of 'Mark Zuckerberg says email is dead', which is a pretty ridiculous statement but is, of course, great PR. Facebook is more or less claiming to have found a revolutionary solution to a problem everybody encounters every day, which platform should I, or can I, speak to this person on - SMS, email or through social media messaging or IM? Everyone except me?

The National Labor Relations Board has just ruled that companies must allow their employees to discuss working conditions on social networks like Facebook. For details see this post.

Facebook email: How your email went social
There is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things. - Niccolo Machiavelli
