    The thing about social media sites that drives me crazy is that it has become another avenue for businesses to market crap to us. You can't look at a book review on Amazon and assume it is from a person that read the book. Most of the time it is a hired gun from a publicity firm posting as an average reader.

    I visit http://abduzeedo.com/ everday. It's a cool design blog, so it's visual.

    I am responsible for the marketing and sales of my Spanish School. I practically stopped using the phone because NOBODY picks up! Even tough I know the person in in his desk he stills wants to "talk" to me over the e-mail.

    I basically had to change entirely my marketing approach to email.

    Me encanta tu show!
