BLOG TRAFFIC: THE LINE STARTS OVER THERE

March 10, 2024 by

Blog traffic is easy, so expect instant results. Start a blog, write a post, and stand back. The clouds part, the rain stops. You stand in the warming sunshine, not the blazing warm that melts asphalt in parking lot, but the cuddly warm of wearing strap t-shirts and cargo shorts. Let’s warm it up.

FACEBOOK DATA BROKERS GET DIRTY WITH OUR MUD

March 19, 2018 by

    The numbers are too big to fathom. $42 billion loss in market value? 50 million users had their data harvested? All we want to do is post a nice cat picture, not get sucked into some weird vortex of data mining.   Don’t get me wrong, I like mining, but for the right […]

FACEBOOK WINGS ON AMERICAN AIRLINES

January 18, 2018 by

OVERSHARING, TMI, SETTING NEW BOUNDARIES FOR CHANGE

January 21, 2017 by

BABY BOOMER FACEBOOK INDIFFERENCE: 2016

November 3, 2016 by

Facebook shows baby boomer indifference, or is it everyone? The question came from a news source: Do you unfriend on facebook if facebook friends take the side opposite yours on an issue? That’s one way of dealing with feelings. Hide and no seek. Unfriending, going dark, banning political posts, all have a see no evil […]

WHO NEEDS A BOOK TRAILER?

June 11, 2016 by

It starts with a book, then a book trailer. A book trailer is a preview, like the movie previews you watch before the movie you paid to see. Tonya Hamilton wrote a book, Wrestling With The Devil. A review of her book made it to BoomerPdx. We like books around here, the idea of books, […]

BABY BOOMER RETIREMENT FEARS

May 5, 2016 by

Big life and big fears? Or the other way around? Baby boomer retirement fears come in all sizes, like our houses, which we fear. A doctor might say fear that won’t go away is a medical condition. You could get a pill for that. Instead, try and choke your fear down and carry on. What’s […]
