Social Media Basics

2 May


  • Are you new to the Social Media space?
  • Small Business Owner? Don’t know much about Social Media?
  • What is Social Media after-all? 😦

You are not alone. There are a lot of people out there who want to know the bare basics. So, here is a simplistic overview to get you started:

LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter are the most commonly used Social Media platforms for Networking and connecting with people and spreading awareness about a Business, Brand or yourself. 

Basic Overview and why you should use them: 

"Social Media for dummies" "Social Media Explained" Social Media Graphically"

Social Media isn’t rocket science! Trust me, once you start fiddling with these networking websites you will understand what I mean. It’s all FREE – All you need to do is grasp an idea of they can do for you and let them do their magic and promote yourself or your brand. One thing you should always remember though is “once you post something online, it stays online.” So, be careful about what and how you post. Please feel free to reach out via comments should you have any questions or need help on getting social 😉

Zilker Flower Festival – A Taste of Spring!

2 Apr

Spring is blooming like a speeded-up Nature film and I totally love it! It is a “everyone’s invited” Nature’s open air theater after all. Don’t ya’ll love that. Well, I certainly enjoy it from the core of my heart 🙂 Austin is on a major makeover for sure, both Personal and Professional. It has recently attracted companies such as Facebook, Apple and Google because of the current “Tax Climate” it offers. Twitter was also founded right here in the greatly popular #SXSW (South by SouthWest) home of America – Austin!

Zilker Park is a major local attraction. Zilker Botanical Garden located in heart of the Park hosted the Annual Spring Festival this weekend (Saturday the 31st March 2012 – April  1st 2012) and I am glad I Tagged it! There was something for everyone – Flowers, Activities for Kids, Live Music, Gardening talks from seasoned Gardeners and Austin’s tasty food!! Here are some beautiful shots from the show:
