William Buist is the subject of todays ecademy photo profile critique So the usual question, from visual first impressions is William’s profile image PPE (professional, personable and engaging) or FFF (fuzzy, faraway and forgetful)? Don’t forget to use my checklist as a reference and I’m always looking for volunteers and suggestions to critique, especially if you think the image is a particularly good or bad PPE or FFF example PPE.

As I continue to spend time on Twitter my understanding of the platform, and how to use it to grow a personal brand, evolves. This post is not intended as my final thoughts on the subject, just a snapshot of my current thinking.Define your goals for social communications and how Twitter fits into these goals. Twitter does not address all needs, blogs are still important, face to face communication is still important. Twitter is but one tool and you should first understand how it is used and

Updating my Blog In the past month I’ve been terrible absent from my blog and my writing passion in general. Not for lack of love of my readers I needed to step back and address my own life goals and priorities and where I want to go. Thank you for all the emails I am still here:) I was just getting stuck on the small stuff and reevaluating how I can be be better to my community and grow my own personal Business Blue Blazing Media. I stepped back and sought feedback from my inner circle of friends.

Telephone conferencing/interviewing – look at your participant is a post from: Wally’s Follies That title sounds a little weird, I’ll admit. But I’m going to describe a simple technique I use that makes talking on the phone much easier. You can use this for phone interviews, telephone conferences, or just when you’re talking to somebody. If you can find a picture of the person you’re talking to, and if you’re using Outlook, this is really simple.

S ome things must be experienced a certain way to get the full effect. Take, for example, this one minute long video clip from The Human Centipede (First Sequence) , a film which just recently played at Fantastic Fest: Effective eh? I was certainly curious to read more but now that I have, I’m not so sure I’m as interested as I was at just seeing the clips. /Film suggests it’s one of the grossest films ever made while the folks at Dread Central love it.

Business Week columnist Stephen Baker has a brief comment on the Washington Post social media policy. He makes the point that usually it’s not so hard to represent both the company and your personal brand. I think he’s absolutely correct, but I also think some common sense needs to employed when it comes to social media usage by journalists. This isn’t a particularly revolutionary thought, falling well within the “don’t bite the hand that feeds you” aphorism.

This is an except from an article that discusses the power of a consistent color, view the full article here ! “Branding is really about business, how to package yourself in such a way so you are literally “picked” from the shelf. In today’s competitive job market, you will need to rely on more than your skills to get a position and establishing a personal brand will set you apart.” Pick a color… Pick a symbol in your color Make this color part of your interview outfit Follow

Do you want to standout from the crowd? Do you want people to recognize you immediately because they know exactly what you do? Branding. It is a process of making a mark in your chosen field of practice. It will differentiate yourself from your competitors. With it, you will easily get recognized and the community will get an impression of your expertise in your chosen field. Sometimes, choosing a brand for your self can be difficult. You may not yet know how or what kind of branding you want.

It seems like everyone is afraid of The Man these days. In this age of solo web entrepreneurs like Tim Ferris with his Four Hour Work Week , Seth Godin telling you All Marketers are Liars and Small is the New Big , and Chris Brogan telling you to Develop a Strong Personal Brand , it’s quite easy to believe that big companies aren’t necessary anymore. In fact, people like Steve Pavlina believe working for another company is a Sucker Bet and will hinder your personal success.

Research released today by Nikon reveals that Brits are seizing control of their ‘Personal Brand’ – the way in which they wish other people to perceive them – as they are taking and sharing images online. The study shows that with a quarter (24.7%) of us taking between 25-100 photos per month, we no longer want to share these images purely in an intimate way – and now want to show them faster and more publicly.

There was a lot of squawking and flapping when Lars von Trier’s new film Antichristdebuted at Cannes a few months ago. I haven’t seen it, but apparently it assaulted the eyes with both genital mutilation and Willem Dafoe (a real one-two punch right there), thus earning it accolades as the Gross Art Movie of the Year. But now it looks like Christmas came twice for perverts this year, because there’s a literally sick new movie on the block, and it is called Human Centipede.

Yesterday was Yom Kippur, considered the holiest day of the year for Jews. I have never been particularly religious, but fasting on Yom Kippur is something I’ve done since I was a kid. Not because my parents told me to or because it was expected of me, but because the significance of the day is something I’ve always inherently understood. Christians have confession periodically throughout the year, but in Judaism it’s an annual event. The 10 days between Rosh Hashanah (the Jewish New Year) and Yom Kippur are a period of self-reflection and repentance.
