There's been some thought provoking and sometimes hairy discussions lighting up the feed readers over twitter and acceptable uses in reference to sponsored tweets, hashtags, twitter parties, promotion, spam, etc.  Some of them had some of them had some valid concerns while others I strongly disagreed with... However, I love how even if you don't agree wholeheartedly with a post there's still things to glean from it, and odds are fired up or not it will get you thinking.  Today I started thinking about why I tweet.    Read more >

Just wanted to take a "Moment" to let you know that BlogHer and Sprint have a review featuring some of the #momspotting mamas, where you can enter to win a $300 Visa Gift Card.    In my post, I'm highlighting applications that honestly help my productivity as a mom from calendar syncing to weather forecast to turn by turn directions and more!   You can check out   Read more >

Not sure how meals work for your family, but if I have any dream of getting dinner on the table for my family of 6 I have to P-L-A-N!   Read more >

Tweet, Of coarse! Open forum style... DH and I were asking questions back and forth to pass the time and ran out of topics, so I sent out a "give us a what if question" tweet and within 2 minutes I had hours worth of debatable, chattable topics. Here are a few of my favorites in the event that you have a long road trip ahead: What if you were asked to pick the high school prom theme what would it be? What if you could go to any 80's concert who would it be, Bon Jovi, Def Leppard or REO Speedwagon?  Read more >

It's beyond clear that Facebook is a powerful tool in social media. Shoot, your grandma is on it for heavens sake.  Most business have a fan page (although some don't have a clue how to use it) The question is how long will it last?  Do you think we'll all still be checkin' status' and uploading high school prom pictures in 3008?   Read more >

I have to admit, being a part of the #momspotting campaign has me hook line and sinkered into the advantages of having a Smart Phone. (Samsung Moment Rocks the House) I love that I have texting, video, weather, bar code scanning/comparison shopping, music, and countless applications right at my fingertips.  Read more >

I'm tempted. And I just might do it. Dynamite, anyone? My inbox needs a drastic "do over". Hundreds of messages that need at least an acknowlegement and I cannot find the time or energy to respond. I'm SERIOUSLY considering hitting the "Delete All" and suffering through the consequences. Inbox Bankruptcy. Do you think the government would bail me out?  Read more >

Although I didn't walk away from digital technology altogether during the holidays, I took a much needed refresher from blogging, social media, emailing, etc.  (My inbox is not happy with me for showing it some tough love.) Sure I still checked my email from time to time, tweeted here and there, texted friends and family, and blogged a few less time consuming posts, but overall I left "things that require charging" behind for a few days and spent time relishing moments that will never be relived. And I have to say I have no regrets.  Read more >
