Finally back from my blogging hiatus!

February 24, 2010


Ok, so I admit it. Since December 2009, I’ve taken a rather extended hiatus from blogging to spend a bit more time with my family. My better half will tell you that it was long over due and I’ll have to agree. While it’s been a nice break to get off the grid and away from writing, I’m finally back and re-energized.

Moving forward, I plan on spending much more time focusing my discussions around the mobile space, i.e., mobile recruiting, mobile marketing & SMS, mobile site optimization, and other mobile-related technologies, etc. I invite you to spend a little time browsing the site. Who knows, you may find something that interests you.

Need help building a mobile recruiting solution, site, or want me to speak at your conference? If so, feel free to email me. However, if you simply want to connect to me, there are many ways to do so. Here’s a good place to start

See you in the cloud!

Cheezhead: Michael Marlatt on Web 2.0 ADD

During a presentation at ERE Expo by Recruiting Consultant Michael Marlatt called, “The Future of Recruiting is in the Cloud,” a new term was introduced into the conversation.

Marlatt brought up a new breed of media consumers called “media snackers,” or people who have been bombarded with media tools like social networks, microblogs, and media aggregators, and then acquire “Web 2.0 Attention Deficit Disorder.”

“We’re so overwhelmed, we don’t take the time anymore to read blogs like we did three years ago,” Marlatt said. “Anyone who actually blogs can look at their analytics and see the level of traffic vs. a year ago. The attention span of most users is waning. People are consuming information in small bits and choose how they want it when they want it. It’s about micromedia, not social media.”
