A friend of mine did a Google image search for "Professional Athletes Using Social Media" and I was pleasantly surprised with his results. My profile photo for my fan page was near the top of the search. Sooo, maybe I might be doing something right. Lol.

Tick...tick...tick The new year is almost upon us. I am looking forward to a lot of good things happening the year to come.

Question |

Should professional athletes be held responsible for their personal messages, rather it be by texting or popular social networks?

Welcome to my Blog.

I am sending a Facebook invitation to my blog where I

will be giving more in-depth posting about the ever changing

life of social media and what I find interesting on my desk.

.

I look forward to seeing you as followers.

September post are coming soon.

On the bookshelf

This is a book that I read several years ago and saw it on the bookshelf and thought I would share the information with you. It is a young adult novel that has good characterization and imaginative setting. I give it 3 out of 4 stars.

Poisonhttp://www.amazon.com/dp/0439755719/ref=…

Poison has always been a willful, contrary girl, prone to being argumentative and stubborn. So when her sister is snatched by the mean-spirited faeries, she seeks out the Phaerie Lord to get her back. But finding him isn’t easy, and the quest leads Poison into a murderous world of intrigue, danger, and deadly storytelling. With only her wits and her friends to aid her, Poison must survive the attentions of the Phaerie Lord, rescue her sister, and thwart a plot that’s beyond anything she (or the reader) can imagine… .

Heads Up this is an important read:

Profile and Page Roadmap UpdateWe announced plans last October to remove application boxes and application info sections as well as reduce the width of application tabs to optimize for the new profile and Facebook Pages format. We will be moving forward with these changes the week of August 23 and want to help you understand what to expect. Based on feedback from developers, we have committed to the following plans to ensure a smooth transition: Boxes. We will notify users via messaging in profile boxes and in the Help Center that the “Boxes” tab, boxes on profiles and Pages, and application info sections will be going away.Application Tabs. Next week, we will give Page admins the ability to preview their custom tabs in the new 520 pixel width so they can modify their layouts as needed. All profile and Page tabs will be resized automatically beginning the week of August 23.These updates are designed to simplify navigation for users, reduce complexity for developers, and enable us to build the next generation of tools for growing your business with Facebook. Subscribe to the developer blog to learn about our new roadmap in the coming weeks.

Fran, a Platform product marketing manager, is busy updating the roadmap.
