“Snobowing”
I’m not sure who’s Tebowing better; the snowman or the kid. Let’s go with….Snowman. No offense.
Yahoo! Social: "Should I tweet something more than once?"
Bit.ly recently released a study that suggested socially shared links have a life span of about 3 hours (in other words, they’ve sent about all the traffic they’re going to send). This could be due to fading attention spans online, users not being online at the time, etc.
With that being…
In an interview on the Jim Rome show Tuesday, former Iowa K Kyle Schlicher said Chargers SS Bob Sanders is one of the most mentally tough individuals he has ever met. Schlicher, a former teammate of Sanders, says he has coached over 5,000 men in helping them prepare for Navy SEALs BUDs training. “Wow,” Sanders said. “That is definitely a great compliment.” Chargers RapidReports

Twitter promotion in comments
I’ve started using “@bryanbrackney” instead of “Bryan Brackney” in the “Name:” form of comment boxes on blogs and websites. Hopefully this will be a good strategy for getting my twitter out there.
Dear God. No.
It's Official: Google+ Pulled In 10 Million Users In Two Weeks
Larry Page on today’s Google earnings call:
Good afternoon everyone—thanks for joining us today
It’s exciting to be on the call today and to share directly with you the progress we have made in my first quarter as CEO
As you will have seen from our press release we had a great quarter—with revenue up by 32 per cent year on year and a new record for quarterly revenue at over $9 billion!
We have substantially increased our velocity and execution this quarter—a key goal of mine since taking over as CEO
It’s why I created a new, product focused management structure—with a clear leader responsible for each product area
This new management team is working together fabulously … and has already achieved a lot in just three months
First we launched Google+ to field trial invitation only
Our goal with Google+ is to make sharing on the web like sharing in real life, as well as to improve the overall Google experienceCircles let you choose with precision who you are sharing with. Not surprisingly this has been very well received, because in real life, we share different things with different people.
Hangouts allow for serendipitous interactions. Like in real life when you run into a few friends. It gives you seamless and fun multi user video and it’s really amazing!
Last quarter, we launched the +1 button in search results and ads—enabling users to recommend stuff they liked, and have those recommendations show up in the search results of people they know
This quarter, we released +1 buttons to the entire web, and many sites like Huffington Post, the Washington Post and Best Buy have added +1 buttons
Google+ is still only in field trial with limited access as we scale the system
Users have to be invited, sign up with a profile in order to use it
However, the growth on Google+ has been great—and I’m excited to release some new metrics for you todayOver 10M people have joined Google+
