Comments on: Social Sunshine http://www.morphodesigns.com/archives/2008/social-sunshine/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=social-sunshine Reflections on the Mutability of the Interwoven Internet Sun, 05 Feb 2012 16:49:41 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Mitchell Allen http://www.morphodesigns.com/archives/2008/social-sunshine/#comment-8771 Mitchell Allen Thu, 07 Jul 2011 12:10:36 +0000 http://www.morphodesigns.com/archives/2008/social-sunshine/#comment-8771 Martin, your sentiment is the answer to your question. Only took me a bit longer to realize. If you refer back to <a href="http://www.morphodesigns.com/archives/2011/keep-your-ize-on-the-prize/" rel="nofollow">Keep Your Ize on the Prize</a> (with aspirin in hand), you'll see my current attitude. Basically, I've misinterpreted "Social Media", even though this post implies otherwise. As you mentioned in "Ize", engaging is a lot different than commanding some meaningless and ephemeral metric. Not knocking solarshingles, as I have no clue what his goal was for writing the hub. However, it is clear that I misused the term engage, and he hasn't even replied to comments more recent than two years ago. Perhaps he, too, recognized the limitations of HubPages as a behavior modification tool. Cheers, Mitch Martin, your sentiment is the answer to your question. Only took me a bit longer to realize.

I got a ton of visits to this post. Thanks, Ashok! Every time I read something good on Hubpages, I'm tempted to add another one. The editorial process makes me cry, though. I only wanted to get that blasted AdSense to $100. LOL Cheers, Mitch Whoa! I got a ton of visits to this post. Thanks, Ashok!

I did take a look at the hubpage of solarshingles - he's definitely responding and talking to people. I definitely have a ways to go with responding to comments well. Which reminds me - my thanks for all the wonderful comments you've left recently. I just hope that some traffic is being sent your way by my blog. Stumbled.

Otherwise, we'd all have to drink more milk. Cheers, Mitch Hi Randy,

I think I'm ready for some virtual interaction as a welcome change.

Twitter and some of the other social networks are great for that. It's nice to have places to find potential customers and collaborators where you don't have to feel like you're "stuck" with talking about business. It's not out of place to talk about your weekend plans or the movie you just saw. I agree about the interaction. Twitter and some of the other social networks are great for that.

You definitely have a good approach to social media. It's definitely more than just putting your name out there, although that is important. Social media has done well for my sites as far as SEO, but I could be doing much better with interacting with everyone on the sites. I will take a look at HubPages to see what it's about. Thanks for the well written info. Hi, Mitch. You definitely have a good approach to social media. It’s definitely more than just putting your name out there, although that is important.

I've decided to use HubPages for my technology articles. Your encouragement is motivating. It's great to have a go-to person; I love that HubPages continually enhances the publisher experience.
