How important is hosting video on your site vs. hosting video solely on youtube?

What's the best time to post to social networks?

Andrew's answer is spot on "when you have the right content" - timing is meaningful but there's no 'one size fits all' answer. What's most important is to look at your history given your audience/followers and see when people have reacted in the past. I ... more

What is the protocol for thanking people for retweeting?

At some point (we should be so lucky), there will be so many retweets in your stream you literally can't keep up. I haven't hit that point yet :) However, my practice is to thank someone once and not repeat myself if they do it ... more

What's your next business PDA: Blackberry, iPhone 5, Android 3?

iPhone 5.
Why would I want a fragmented OS (Android) where most of the time the phone can't even get upgraded with system updates because each manufacturer changes it.

What are some tips for using video to record an event or conference?

Will the enterprise save the RIM Playbook?

The most successful technology acquisition tactics revolve around a carefully planned demonstration process.

Where can I learn the basics of data communication networking?

As you undoubtedly know, 95+% of the SMB networks you're going to run into will be using Microsoft, Cisco, and/or Linux products.
