Custom Facebook Page Design - 04/29/09 01:45 PM
Your Feedback is requested! I’ve been working on custom designed client Facebook pages and have left my 3 Facebook Business Pages virtually stock. I guess that’s a little like the car mechanic not working on his own car. I finally started applying some axle grease to my pages. In particular my Mueller Map Page . I added 3 new tabs. A What Is tab that is also the landing page for new visitors a DEMO tab that I will soon import a live DEMO of a Mueller Map and a VIDEO! tab that rounds up all the video relevant to creating … (4 comments)

With all the news about Swine Flu (H1N1) and my passion for Google Maps I thought I would share this mashup:
View H1N1 Swine Flu in a larger map There’s also a few things to know about the Swine Flue H1N1 (from the CDC): What are the signs and symptoms of swine flu in people?

Driving Traffic to your Facebook Business Page - 04/15/09 02:12 PM
Are We Connected.com Image of Renae Bolton Renae asked me what was the best way to drive traffic to a newly created Facebook Fan (business) Page? Simply change the links that you have that might normally lead to your Facebook Profile (resulting in a new Friend ) to your Facebook Business Page (resulting in a new Fan )
Would that really work? Looking at the below real time chart from Facebook I would say, VERY MUCH SO!
That Facebook Bottle Cap is much smaller and more concealed than my previous “Join Mike on Facebook” widget yet my traffic dramatically … (21 comments)

Art Ross gave my Selke, "Byng" a Vezina while Jack Adams just watched! - 04/13/09 05:27 PM
It’s the end of the regular season and we’re about to start the playoffs. About now each year I start setting up the Hockey Shrine. Everyone has a Hockey Shrine don’t they? If you’ve followed the NHL for anytime you might have been confused by some of the year end trophies. That’s understandable as they are all named after actual people. Here’s a 7 minute video explaining each of the trophies and what they represent.
The Art Ross Trophy The Maurice “Rocket” Richard Trophy The Norris Trophy The Frank Selke Trophy The Vezina Trophy The Calder Trophy The Hart Memorial … (5 comments)
2,663 ignored me / 336,894 never heard me - 04/06/09 11:48 AM
Social Reach - it’s the number of people you have a theoretical chance at getting your message to in using social media. It’s numerical value is derived by the number of Friends, Connections and Followers you have and how many Friends, Connections and Followers they have. That raw number grows exponentially!
Maybe that’s why the Sales & Marketing Types are drawn to Social Media. They are literally blinded by that potential. Unfortunately, so often they get it wrong. They blast into Social Media, follow and friend everyone, compute their massive Social Reach potential, then start blasting out broadcast (spam) messages. … (9 comments)
Want to play the REBarCamp Game? - 04/02/09 10:34 AM
Today is the day of REBarCampLA and I am going to miss it! I didn’t want to miss it. I would have much preferred to be there, connecting with all my online friends and making new ones.

I was there at the inception for the first one. REBarCampSF08 and it rocked! Oh well. Image by brad.coy via Flickr This post isn’t about all the great … (8 comments)
