Best Buy claims their social network reduces turn over

Best Buy claims that their internal social network, Blue Shirt Nation, reduces employee turnover. What do you think?

Does this happen to you? You need to schedule a meeting with a few people, none of who share a calendar with you, and ten emails later you still don’t have a time slot that works for everyone? Perhaps you find a time but now you have to decide where to meet?

Here comes Doodle to the rescue! Doodle isn’t a new service but it’s handy. Recently, my friend, Aaron Houssian (IU Informatics) turned me on to the site and it’s already…

Magicians and Jugglers: Why Education is an Important Part of Marketing

Web 2.0, Second Life, blogs, wikis, APIs, social networks, SEO, SEM, SMS, widgets, microblogs…if you find any of these confusing or think that if you hear another geeky-acronym that your head will explode know that you’re not alone. For those of us in the tech industry this is all shop talk. It’s easy for someone like me, an expert on emerging technologies and an uber-nerd, to think that everyone knows what all of these technologies are. But the bottom line is that the great majority of folks…

At 8:11am on March 4th, 2008, Jeremy Stacy said…: Hey Sarah, great work on Friday! I can see why MediaSauce snatched you up. You really helped me see and understand social networks in a new light. Did you happen to catch the column on social networks in the March issue of Fast Company? It's a weak counterpoint to pretty much everything you talked about.

At 8:11pm on March 3rd, 2008, Brandon R. Lott said…: hey there Pink Lady! Will you be making it out to the Rathskeller this Wednesday. I am going bait and hook Hup into coming! Hope to see you there! Keep your fingers crossed the HAT may make and appearance!

At 11:25pm on February 29th, 2008, Erik Deckers said…: Excellent job today, Sarah. I popped over here to leave you a comment while I'm on another tab signing up for Facebook. We'll see how this goes.

At 1:52pm on February 29th, 2008, Brandon R. Lott said…: And there she is...all I had to do was run a search on Pink Streak 2.0 and your profile came up! Awesome job today and great to talk with you. I look forward to our next conversation. Please, watch for my video blog this weekend out todays little tea session. Be Well!

At 1:01pm on February 29th, 2008, Jeremy Williams said…: Sarah, great presentation today at IUPUI. I always feel more informed after your presentations!

At 5:27pm on February 28th, 2008, Brian Conradt said…: Hey no problem.

Hope you feel better! :-\

At 8:11pm on February 27th, 2008, Ellen Denham said…: Hiya - stumbled on your page and I think it's cool you're working on a dissertation on virtual worlds. I not only met my husband on a MUD back in '94, I learned more about computers/coding from people I hung out with in the virtual world than I did at my job. At the time I knew some folks who were working on a text-based virtual environment for business interaction, but they were having a hard time selling it. Ahead of their time, I guess.
