Tease:

The misuse of flash video content is a great way to discourage users from interacting with your site. Such irony.

When communicating to your audience with true engagement and marketing methods, the least reasonable is to try faux-interactivity by using web flash presenters and automatically jamming your message down the throat of a potential marketing target.

Tease:

A Social Media Policy for Families, like most businesses, is really a good idea.

At a number of conferences and events lately the topic of internet filtering, online privacy as well as what we can do to protect our personal and family privacy have been discussed until throats are raw and the conversation has come full swing.

Tease:

The art of making friends without the disconnect from social media is a daunting and highly personal task.

Rediscovering the fine art of making friends at a personal level; as opposed to the new age way of doing so online;and then establishing a rapport via social media to learn that it isn't quite as easy as I'd thought.

At a recent event met two people that have influenced and changed my view of technology, the way we use it in our lives and the future of its use. For purposes of this we'll refer to him as Jay Z and her as Beyonce.

Description:

When we make friends these days, its quite easy to disconnect and do it remotely. One-to-one contact is a rarity.

Tease:

At the risk of facing oblivion, the Liberal party have some work to do in order to catch up with technology.

In a recent article about the Coalition's appeal to young voters it was revealed that in a short amount of time the Liberal/Nationals face oblivion for being largely out of touch with the younger generation; by completely failing to understand the needs of youth, technology and its uses.
