The Single Best Way To Manage Personal Social Media Burnout
Burnout.
When I played basketball, all through high-school and then in college, it’d happen to me once a year or so. Countless hours in the gym would take its toll and I’d need a break.
When I played music full-time, traveling the country, singing 175 nights a year, sleeping in cars, stealing breakfast from hotels, it’d happen then too.
With social media, it seems to happen to me at least twice a year. Maybe once a quarter even. Hour after hour of monitoring, responding, and posting to one of dozen personal social sites I occupy catches up to me and I can’t take it anymore.

But, I’m going with Copyblogger.
NoFollow, No Cry: Why NoFollow Links Are Still Ok
It seems the NoFollow link topic has bubbled up more and more recently. I think more so now that Pinterest has exploded and tossed the ol’ NoFollow on their links keeping marketers and internet pros everywhere from basking in the gorgeous link juice.
(Link juice just sounds disgusting, by the way.)
I’m here to tell ya that, yea, it’s great to get a Follow link, but should you find yourself in a no follow situation, then NoFollow, No Cry.
You can even sing it like ol’ Bob up there. C’mon. Ev-er-y-body now.
Seriously though, here’s why.
3 Overtastically Helpful Social Media Articles
If you haven’t figured it out by know, I reserve my Sunday headlines for mashup stupid words that don’t really exist.
Sunday is also my second favorite part of my writing week. First is the interviews I get to run on Friday. Second is when I get to dig through articles from the past couple weeks and spread the good-word over here.
And Sunday is such a favorite of mine that I completely forgot to publish yesterday. Sheesh.
