My Appearance on LinkedIn Lady Radio Show From Last Week

On February 23, I had the pleasure of being on Carol McManus' radio show.

Each day, author/speaker and marketer extraordinaire Carol McManus hosts her own show on the Rockstar Radio network and she talks social media, surviving as a small business and sometimes technology.

I was happy to talk to her about my use of social media and what it means in the sports world.

You can take a listen on her archive of shows here:

Carol does a great job and you can learn something each day from her and her stable of guests.

Hope to do it again soon!

Georgia Aquarium is a Believer in Social Media

I enjoy talking with the people that run the social media platforms at their companies and organizations.  These are mainly newly created jobs and many of these people are learning as they go. 

They all say their job is exciting and different each and every day.

Here's a guest column that I did for the Technology Association of Georgia where I talk about how the Georgia Aquarium handles social media and get some great insight from Ashley Payne, who is the Manager of Digital Media for the Aquarium.

Here's the link... enjoy.

Fake Doctor Injects Cement into Butts

If that headline didn't grab your attention right away, please read on.  This Oneal Ron Morris has more problems than cement in the butt.

Police say a South Florida woman posed as a doctor and gave a series of toxic injections to a woman who wanted a bigger backside and curvier body.  And it wasn't Kim Kardashian.

Sgt. Bill Bamford is with the Miami Gardens Police Department. He says Oneal Ron Morris was arrested Friday after a yearlong hunt. Morris, who was born a man but identifies as a woman, has been charged with practicing medicine without a license with serious bodily injury.

Morris was released from jail on bond, and a telephone listing for her could not be found.

Police say Morris injected cement, mineral oil and a sealant used to fix flat tires into another woman's rear end in May 2010. Investigators believe Morris performed this same procedure on herself and possibly on other people.

The Weather Channel Finds Success With Apps and Social Media

I was fortunate enough to attend the Social TV Event here in Atlanta last week.  There, I met The Weather Channel's VP of Branding, Derek Van Nostran.

Derek was one of the participants in the conference, but he took some time out to talk to me about some things that are going on at The Weather Channel including their Twitter platform called The Weather Channel Social.
