Klout becomes a content curation tool and then gets bought??
Facebook allows you to be any gender you choose.
Twitter testing a new layout that looks alot like Facebook.
How I screwed up on Google+ and pissed some people off!

Facebook removed the barriers to administering a promotion/contest yesterday. I have a great idea for a product that a savvy marketer should hop on ASAP! I'm too bad of a marketer to do it and too lazy! haha

I've decided to shut down my Facebook page for The Social Media Buzz. Find out why after having it for 3-4 years I'm shutting it down after changing it from Pimp My Fan Page.

I also got a new Yeti mic I'm testing out!

Recently a newspaper published an article calling Robert Scoble the King of Social Media.

Which has caused quite a stir today and many are debating this topic, so I thought I'd weigh in.

Instagram just added the ability to record video with their app and immediately everyone wants to know if this killed the Vine app.

Instagram has 15 seconds of recording time -- Vine 6 seconds.

Instagram has filters -- Vine doesn't.

Instagram allows you to edit the video -- Vine nope.

Instagram lets you choose a thumbnail -- Vine nada.

Instagram videos can be shared to Facebook and played inside Facebook -- Vine only plays on Vine or embedded.

Instagram videos don't loop -- Vine videos do.

Instagram has over 100 million users -- Vine about 13 million.

Ok.. I don't keep up with news at all. The only "news" I get is via Twitter of Facebook posts. Which is good at times. But overall I don't watch the news, haven't in years. And my life is better because of it.

Although when it's a stormy day it catches me off guard because I don't watch the weather at all.

But my life is more peaceful without watching the news. Because it's all hype and scare tactics.

So this NSA and Prism junk has gotten old and I need to rant about them and privacy online.

Just a rant about life, people, social media and poop....
