Like you, I have a few friends on Facebook and Twitter. I love them, but sometimes there are certain individuals that post annoying updates/tweets (and I am very sure they feel the same about mine at times). Friend#1 posts everything she does on Facebook… or so it seems, thanks to her 15-18 updates a day [...]
It’s Saturday! The Urban Bliss Life philosophy is that Saturday is for playing! Therefore, I’ll keep today’s 365 Days of Social Media post will be brief: make your Twitter updates public.

Social media is a two-way street. Think of it this way: isn’t it rather selfish of folks who take, take, [...]
Since I was a young child, the communication world has been my comfort zone. Communication in various forms has always been and always will be my warm, cozy blanket where I feel safe, inspired, happy, alive. When social media came along, I embraced it immediately as just another layer of comfort in my life. I [...]
If you’ve been on Twitter for longer than a few months, you’ve likely come to realize that there’s quite a bit of complaining about how people use Twitter, on Twitter. “Old” Twitter purists such as myself who have been using it for 3 years or more are easily made cranky by common missteps made by [...]
