Working Out Loud*
It occurred to me recently that my blogging has all but slammed to a screeching halt. Since the Council was bought by Dachis Group, I’ve barely managed to blog at all, and my tweeting has wound down considerably, as well. This is not to say I’ve slowed down with social engagement, in fact, it’s […]
Social is as Social Does

We have a hard and fast rule about Council membership that states only large enterprises can join with more than 10K employees. Chris McGrath of ThoughtFarmer referred Ephraim Freed to me when we were first getting started. I […]

Stop ‘Yer Sobbin’ – Texas Remix
By Susan Scrupski on October 28, 2013
So, I feel compelled to blog a little this weekend addressing the angst that is circulating around the social web on the death of e20/social business/etc. I’m not going to dazzle you with brilliant insights on what’s happening, why things are difficult, why change has been hard to do.
