  • Know. Like. Trust.

    Know. Like. Trust. Break the Trust. There Goes Your Business (and potential clients/colleagues). It can happen in a flash with social media. There’s no hiding with social media. In my opinion, the Trust factor is number 1, with Like and Know, in 2nd and 3rd place. What order do you place them in? And Why?…

  • Is Image Sharing Fun?

    I’ll be speaking at Social Media Camp in June of 2011, and my topic is “I’ve got an iPhone, now what? Image sharing and photography apps for Social Media.” and I am a HUGE fan of iPhone photography. I do a lot of it, both as an art form, and to promote my business in…

  • Post Secondary Institution Spelling : Ooops

    Post Secondary Institution Spelling : Ooops

    I’m a total outdoors and nature person, so I LOVE the concept of an outdoor classroom. However, this sign was tacked onto a glass door at a post-secondary educational institution. Spelling? Oooops? (*P.S. I don’t think most people even noticed) It’s OK, you’re forgiven, because I LOVE what you are trying to do, in getting…

  • Radian6 : Social Media Monitoring

    Recently I contacted Radian6 and requested a review of the Radian6 platform, and sat in on an online demo with Sara Frystacki, Senior Business Development Manager with Radian6, who provided an overview of the platform with a small group of us. Sara was fantastic, knows her stuff, was super friendly, and I’d highly recommend this…

  • How’d She Do That? iPhoneography

    How’d She Do That? iPhoneography

    How did I do this? iPhone 3G capture of a reflection (in the daytime actually, but when taken at the right angle, it created a silhouetted figure, appearing to be taken at night time), then post-processed in-camera, using a couple or three photography apps. ~ Brenda Johima ~ Copyright 2011 Brenda Johima | Images May…

    Don’t Try This At Home : Don’t Take Photos and Drive

    Don’t text and drive, don’t talk on your cell and drive, and don’t take photos with your DSLR camera and drive. Have someone else drive so you can have fun as a photographer 🙂 with “Painting With Light.” ~ Brenda Johima ~   Copyright 2008 Brenda Johima
