Social media is everywhere and is influencing everything – even the way we apply and interview for jobs and careers. Our LinkedIn pages give our info. Our personal Facebook pages become more toned down or we start new Facebook pages to help represent ourselves the way we want our interviewers to see us. Our Twitter followers change to include more professional contacts. We want to present ourselves in the most professional and yet innovative way possible. In today’s world of [...]

If you haven’t yet heard, Posse Social Media has been invited to be a part of an awesome show/project out of France called Le Camping. The show is the brain child of Silicon Sentier, a team of Web 2.0 activists who range in age from twenty-two to fifty. This team feels that the Internet continues to present a potential for the redistribution of power and for the birth and growth of an all new digital based culture. According to Silicon [...]

Today we’re going to talk WordPress and in case you don’t already know, its the very best CMS platform on the planet and its the only platform that we use when building customer sites here at Posse Social Media! Currently its estimated that around 20-25% of all NEW websites are built utilizing the WordPress platform, that number makes up bout 1/5 of all the sites that are live online today. So tell me again why someone would use another CMS? [...]

As a fan of social media for quite some time now, I’ve followed many companies and seen their successes over the years.

For better or worse, the new Facebook Timeline layout has now launched. As of March 30th everyone has been switched over to the new design. Now, we already know that many brands and individuals are not happy about the changes. However to make things even more complicated, these change also comes with a whole new set of rules. You see Facebook loves rules! So, as profiles and brand pages have now switched over we thought we would review the Zuckerberg [...]

For quite some time Posse Social Media has used HootSuite to post things for our own social media platforms as well as our clients’. In November 2011 we decided to explore some options and go through a demo with Argyle Social. We decided to stick with HootSuite because, well, why pay for these services when we could get the ones we needed for free? Little did we know how much we would end up needing Argyle. Earlier this month Argyle [...]

Today it was announced that Peyton Manning will be signing with the Denver Broncos as their new Quarterback. This has raised quite the buzz on all social media outlets. I even posted an update to my personal Facebook Profile about the news. The interesting thing about it though, is that the buzz isn’t so much about Peyton Manning or even the Denver Broncos really, it’s mostly about Tim Tebow. The quarterback that took social media by storm this past season [...]

Late Sunday night after the third (but prettiest) day of SXSWi, after I escaped the madness of downtown Austin, I was going through my regular daily news. I checked LinkedIn Today (an awesome news source if you’re on LinkedIn a lot) and found an article by Reuters saying that CNN was going to buy Mashable for a reported 200 million bucks! Mashable is my absolute favorite news source for any and all things social media. I follow Pete Cashmore (the [...]
