Sandy Carter of IBM - Small Business Trends
When it comes to social media, the old adage, ?build it and they will come? simply doesn?t apply. Putting up a Facebook page and creating a Twitter or YouTube account just isn?t enough. In order for businesses to use social media effectively, they must leverage it by building it into their business processes to truly give them the competitive advantage. ?Sandy Carter, Vice President of Social Business Evangelism at IBM joins Brent Leary for an in-depth discussion on becoming a social business.
* * * * *
Small Business Trends: Can touch on how you became Vice President of Social Business Evangelism at IBM?
Sandy Carter: At IBM we like to help our clients in new markets. ?As we do that, part of what we like to do for clients is to add value. ?Teach them about the new market and show them the value and actually become the social business ourselves.
So Brent, for the last four or five years in my businesses, I have used social to grow my businesses. Whether that was in marketing or strategy, social has always been a part of the way that I run and drive the bottom line of my businesses.
When we really saw this trend and had seen the change in the way we worked, IBM wanted someone who could help and teach clients not just how to do things, but someone who had actually done it. That is when they came to me about a year and a half ago and asked if I would like to do this job. ?Of course I jumped at it because it is just a great space. ?I love to work with clients and teach them to make their business more competitive.
Small Business Trends: What is the difference between a company that uses social media and a company that is a social business?
Sandy Carter: A social business is one that leverages social in its business processes. Not someone that says. ?Oh, I have a Facebook page. ?I have a Twitter account.? It is someone who has social embedded into sales, HR talent management, product innovation, customer service. It?s about taking these tools and techniques and making those processes much more competitive. Not just playing with it and putting an application on YouTube. ?Is it embedded into the company?s workflow? ?Into the soul of the company? ?Which I consider to be a business process.
Small Business Trends: What is the challenge when it comes to ?big data? in becoming a social business?
Sandy Carter: My favorite saying is that analytics is the ?new black.?
There is so much information out on the Web that a small or mid-size company using social analytics can introduce so much marketing intelligence, so much insight, so much trend spotting . . .that to me, it is such an invaluable source that small and medium businesses have never had. Something that had given larger businesses the competitive advantage.
The issue is that about 80% of that data is unstructured because it is a conversation among customers. ?So you have to use tools like social analytics to make sense of that data. ?To really unlock that valuable insight, I believe.
Just one quick example. Seton Hall University, which is a medium size university in terms of the number of employees, say there is a crises in the number of students coming into their school. ?That is how they make money ? with tuition. They leveraged social analytics on their Facebook page and found that potential students to Seton Hall were more likely to attend if they had a relationship with alumni.
Using that data, they went out and invited alumni into a Facebook group, the class of 2014. ?They got the dialogues going and started the relationships online. Then they found that the potential students wanted some interactions with professors and wanted to know others in their areas. ?So they again leveraged that big data they had in that group and they made those connections.
The results are very powerful when you harness that data. ?The class of 2014 is the largest matriculating class in Seton Hall history. ?And all from leveraging the social analytics and the Facebook group.
Small Business Trends: Are there any other necessary steps to think about and incorporate in addition to social analytics?
Sandy Carter: Yes, I would say another step is identifying your influencers. What I mean by that is, regardless of the size of your clientele, research shows from multiple sources that about 15% of your clients impact and influence the rest of your clients.
So online think about that. ?Who are those 15%? ?How do you develop a relationship with them online? How do you use social tools do to that? Again, there are tools out there that will help you identify those 15% so that you can start a relationship.
There was a small regional bank I was working with. We looked at using one of the widgets that was developed by IBM. ?We looked at who were the most influential in their regional area. They invited those people into the bank, showed them their services, got input from them, changed some things, and have really reaped the benefits of that close relationship, with this new ?advisory group? that came out of identifying those influencers. ?Those tips from people who talked about them online.
So I think really understanding who those influencers are online is really important. ?You cannot do it just by the customer who has the most followers. ?You really need to look at those who have the most influence in a particular subject matter area.
Small Business Trends: What are the top reasons that companies are NOT able to be successful in making the transition?
Sandy Carter: I think that one of the first ones is putting up a Facebook page and not embedding social into your workflow.
The second one is thinking that you are going to do something social, you are going to put it up and then you kind of forget it. ??One and done? is the what I call it. But social is about a relationship, it is about people. ?That requires being responsive.
A great example of that, and this is a larger company but, KLM Airlines has promised a 15 minute response time on a tweet it you have a problem. I recently tested it out in Amsterdam and sure enough I tweeted that I got stuck in an airport and they helped me out in ten minutes. Another airline I tweeted responded six months later. They came back to me and said, ?We are working on it, we are working on it?.?
Small Business Trends: Where can people learn more?
Sandy Carter: Go to IBM.com and search on Social Business. ?There?s a set of case studies there.

Get Your Money?s Worth: Go For Highly Qualified Business Sales Leads
Article by Sarah Barnes
Chasing after business sales leads is something that all salespeople have to do on a daily basis. Lead generation, though time consuming and can be costly, is an important aspect of the sales process that all business people can do without. It is the only way to find new clients and eventually increase a business? revenue. However, not all sales leads have the potential of becoming good prospects, and ultimately, paying customers. Which is why qualifying business sales leads is so crucial in order to avoid wasting both time and money.
In today?s fast-changing corporate world, highly-qualified B2B sales leads are hard to find. Although there has been a rapid growth in lead buying and list brokerage these days, one cannot deny that only a few lead generation firms and business lists suppliers can really deliver high quality and well-targeted sales leads.
If you are a business owner and scouting for good sales leads, you want to make sure that you are getting your money?s worth. While you can always get business leads cheaply, the quality of these leads cannot be guaranteed. The only time you will discover how bad they are is after you or your sales team have called them and find out they don?t exist, are difficult to contact, you have the wrong person or number, wrong business name, etc. Of course, you wouldn?t get these leads without first paying for them, right? So there goes your hard-earned dollars. They?re cheap, so ?you get? what ?you paid for?.
Buying business leads can be an attractive option, especially if you or your sales people don?t have the time to do it yourselves. But, if you would be shelling out bucks for leads, whether large or small amount, you want to have the chance at, to say the least, getting their phones to ring instead of getting a busy signal or a disconnected message. Ideally, you want to be able to speak with the decision maker who would listen to your proposition and has a genuine interest in your service or product. How do you do this? You can buy leads that have been pre-qualified through appointment setting.
Over the years, lead generation through appointment setting has been proven to work for any vertical. It?s a tried-and-tested marketing approach for generating business leads for various products or services such as accounting/bookkeeping, advertising, cash advance, credit card processing, commercial cleaning, software, tax consulting, and many more.
In appointment setting, professional B2B phone marketers cold-call decision-makers from targeted companies based on the client?s criteria. Telephone representatives call on behalf of the client, establish trust, and set the mood for a sales presentation. If the prospect shows interest and agrees to meet with a sales representative, an appointment (face-to-face, phone, or webinar) is set. This prospect has now been pre-qualified and is forwarded to the client as a sales lead.
The beauty of this method is its capability to quickly identify buying signals. Callers can probe and determine if the prospect:
-Has time for a sales presentation-Is happy with what they have-Has the financial capacity to buy-Is the key decision-maker
In addition, clients can always modify the qualifying questions to get the kind of information they want from prospects. This makes it easier for the sales representative to go about the presentation because issues have been identified earlier and can be addressed accordingly during the presentation proper.
Searching for new leads will always be a part of running a business, and if you have made the decision to buy business sales leads, make sure that you work with a reputable company that can deliver what you paid for.

World News - Brits revel in gloom ahead of London Olympics, but ...
thewebweddingstore on ebay
This badge, which was put up for sale on eBay, gives an indication of the attitudes of some Britons ahead of the Olympics.
By Ian Johnston, msnbc.com
LONDON -- If?grumbling ever becomes an Olympic sport, the United Kingdom has to be a surefire bet for gold.
The level of complaints, fears and general discontent about the 30th Olympiad in London?this summer has reached fever pitch, moving?well-known commentator David Randall, of The Independent on Sunday newspaper, to write a column entitled "Come on, Britain! Stop moaning! It's the Olympics, for heaven's sake!"
Some fear too many people will come to London, causing a "perfect storm" of congestion on the roads -- so bad that lives could be endangered?-- along with congestion on the subways, and also on the Internet; others think that actually?fewer visitors than usual will come?because ordinary tourists will be put off,?so the games will provide?little or no boost to the city's economy.
Composer Andrew Lloyd Webber even predicted "a bloodbath of a summer" for London's theaters?after a slump in advance orders for tickets.
Then there has been a slew of?gripes about tickets for Olympic events, such as not being able to get them?unless you are a member of the super-rich, and?unnecessary secrecy about the ticketing process.
Some worry?London will get a bad name if visitors are ruthlessly gouged for every cent, by unscrupulous landlords, over-priced hotels?or expensive Olympic souvenirs, for example.
The International Olympics Committee President Jacques Rogge said the organization is "happy" with the progress and that a great legacy had already been left. ITV's Rags Martel reports.
?
However, one of the main groups representing London taxis seemed somewhat put out?after it tried unsuccessfully to get approval to increase fares by a hefty 22 percent during the games.?Allowed only?a 5.3 percent raise, a drivers' representative suggested that many cabbies might decide not to show up for work.
Morris-dancing anarchists?
Other complaints include?the potential $17 billion cost?of the event to taxpayers, and that Scotland, some 500 miles to the north of London, will see little benefit from the presence of the Games in the U.K. capital.?
Labor unions?have also been threatening to go on strike during the games to protest the government's austerity measures.?
Darren Staples / Reuters, file
Morris dancers, similar to these Leicester Morrismen dancing in Newtown Linford in 2010, may stage flash mob-style protests after being left out of the opening ceremony, The Daily Mail reported. Morris dancing stretches back some 600 years, but its origins are obscure.
And, if all that wasn't enough, there's the fear of a large-scale terrorist attack, and other assorted threats --?of?varying degrees of seriousness?--?from solar storms, diseases spread by shaking hands, Morris-dancing anarchists,?and, cue the scary music, the "Illuminati."
Olympic housing crunch: London landlords evict tenants to gouge tourists
Any sports enthusiast looking forward to the spectacles of Usain Bolt on the track, LeBron James on the court and Alex Morgan on the soccer field might be somewhat discouraged by all this negativity.
'It's cathartic'
But Peter Catterall,?lecturer in history at Queen Mary, University of London and editor of the journal National Identities, told msnbc.com that this would be a "cultural misreading" of the current outbreak of moaning.
"I think it reflects, if you like, a national history," he said. "The national narrative is often about making the best of heroic defeat, like [the Second World War evacuation of] Dunkirk and so on. The national experience in Britain is not one that's tended to create a sense in which you can just 'seize that hill.'"

From Wimbledon to Wembley Stadium to The Dome, a look at the venues for the 2012 London Olympic Games.
"There's a tendency to think in terms of what could go wrong, rather than what could go right," he said. "It's a kind of low-level grumbling amongst people who are often quite good at grumbling. I think also people quite like grumbling, it's cathartic."
Testing for terror: Preparing for the unthinkable at London Olympics
Olympic?organizers may even have taken this into account in their planning.
"I do think in part the public authorities have been trying to get the moaning out of the way early,"?Catterall said, although he added that this "may well put off some visitors."
An age-old attitude?
This kind of attitude may go back at least as far as what was arguably the world's first international event for the masses, London's Great Exhibition of 1851.
It was essentially a trade fair showing off?the?best?products from across the world -- exhibitors included China, Persia (now Iran), the United States, India, Tunisia, Philippines and many European countries -- and?it attracted more than 6 million visitors during its five-month run.

Will Brits start celebrating the Games when they actually begin? A man sits in the Atlas cafe in Leyton near the Olympic Park in London, England, on March 22, 2012.
However, in the run-up to the exhibition, Londoners expressed a string of complaints and worries that are notably similar to the current ones about the Olympics.
"I think there was a parallel in terms of all these fears," Michael Leapman, author of a book about the Great Exhibition, called?"The World for a Shilling," said.
The prospect of hordes of visitors sparked alarm about congestion -- and as it turned out there were some traffic jams of the horse-and-carriage variety -- and the spread of disease, Leapman told msnbc.com.
And while tickets could be bought for a shilling, prices were increased at the weekends and other times to enable the wealthy to enjoy the exhibits without rubbing shoulders with the "hoi polloi," he added. Leapman said the author Charles Dickens was on a committee to represent the interests of working-class people, but?the exhibition's organizers paid so little attention to?it?that?Dickens quit.
Security was another big concern, with the event coming not long after several European?revolutions in 1848 and amid unrest associated with the working-class Chartist movement in the U.K.
"The Duke of Wellington [a national hero after his victory over Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815] wanted to put a troop of cavalry into Hyde Park, but the government said that would be a bit too provocative," Leapman said.
The government also attempted to set up a register of accommodation with set prices, but Leapman said most landlords resisted signing up, trusting the free market to give a better return.
'Enthusiasm'
But the generally positive outcome of the event?gives Leapman, who has tickets to watch hockey, some comfort amid all the present-day moaning.
He said that while there might be "some inconvenience" during the Olympics "I have a feeling it will be a great success, partly judging from the Great Exhibition."
At Olympics, dogs have sniffed out a key anti-terror role
And so?the views of?Hugh Robertson, the U.K. government's minister for sport and the Olympics, should perhaps not be viewed with the usual British cynicism toward politicians.
"My experience of the Games across the country has been one of fantastic support and enthusiasm," he told msnbc.com in a statement, noting the "huge demand" for tickets.
"The Royal Wedding showed that Britons know how to get behind national events, and London 2012 will be the chance to do that on a giant scale," Robertson added. "We [are] determined that everybody who comes to London for the Games has an amazing time."
John Powell, chairman of leading athletics club Belgrave Harriers, is exactly the sort of person who should be bursting with enthusiasm for the Games.
He will carry the Olympic torch and is the coach of sprinter James Ellington, who is a medal prospect for the U.K. if he makes it through the trials.
Powell told msnbc.com that he was "very excited" about carrying the flame; and?it would be "amazing" to coach an athlete to a medal,?the "pinnacle" of his 36 years of coaching.
But even he has a gripe.
If Ellington wins gold, Powell, his coach of some 13 years, will watch his triumph on television because, he said, he and many other coaches will not be given access to the stadium, a decision he described as?"shambolic and a scandal."
"That really does take the edge of it from my point of view," Powell said.

- Do you want an area for hobbies or a home workshop (e.g. auto mechanics, woodworking, furniture refinishing, sewing, building model planes, etc.)
- Do you want extra living space such as a bedroom for your oldest child who is going to a local college next year, a music or art studio, or a private home office
The possibilities of how additional space can be used are endless. Without knowing exactly what you need and want, you may spend too much time, effort and money or too little, and end up with too much space or too little ? or the wrong kind of space.
2. Decide how you want the space finished
Knowing exactly how you intend to use the space and the finished look you prefer will help you decide the type of garage building plans you want to use ? moderate, bare bones, or luxurious. There are a number of factors that will affect your choice. Listed below are some (but not all) of those factors:
- Walls and ceiling ? exposed beams, sheet rock (painted or unpainted), insulation, sound-proofing
- Flooring ? sealed, heated, carpeted, wood, etc.
- Electrical wiring and plumbing requirements
- Heating and/or air conditioning (HVAC)
- Number of windows and doors (How much light and accessibility do you want)
- Other amenities ? special lighting, compact kitchen, washer/dryer, workbench, secure storage
- Style of the exterior (architectural style should match your home)
3. Understand city building ordinances and obtain all necessary permits
When building a garage, you MUST take this step. If you choose to skip it, you will pay the price. Contractors will typically take care of this one for you; but, as the owner you should know the laws/rules and check to be sure they are being followed.
4. Find a good set of garage building plans
After you have obtained a good set of building plans, get estimates on materials and seek bids from a number of contractors. You should do this even if you think you want to build it yourself. Estimates give you the information you need to plan your budget and decide how to move forward. Is your initial idea going to work, or will adjustments need to be made? The estimates will also help you decide between your building it, or hiring a contractor.
A good set of building plans will often include a materials list that you can give to suppliers for a quick turn-around on the estimates.
5. Who will do the work? You or a contractor?
Being your own contractor can be very tempting and if successful, it can bring a lot of personal satisfaction. However, a word of caution . . . do not take on the project unless you have the skills and experience, plus the time to do it well. Poor construction, sloppy work, or a half-built garage is far worse than no garage.
If you do it yourself, it would be wise to consider using subcontractors for work that you should not do yourself such as electrical wiring, plumbing, siding and roofing.
The main reason to hire a contractor is because he will take care of everything, and if all goes well, it will be finished before you know it. When you provide a good set of building plans, it is easy for him. All you have to do is oversee and enjoy the process. It you can afford it and choose the contractor carefully, a contractor is a good choice.
The suppliers who provide your materials estimates can give you names of reputable contractors if you don?t personally know one. It is likely that the same contractor?s name will come up more than once, and should be the one(s) you interview first.
One final thought ? When building a garage, don?t skimp on space! If you can make it bigger . . . make it bigger!

EU imposes sanctions on Assad's wife, relatives
BRUSSELS (AP) ? EU foreign ministers imposed sanctions Friday on Asma Assad, the stylish, British-born wife of the Syrian president, banning her from traveling to European Union countries and freezing any assets she may have there.
The foreign ministers also imposed the same sanctions on President Bashar Assad's mother, sister and sister-in-law, and eight government ministers, in a continuing attempt to stop the bloody crackdown on opposition in the country.
In addition, the assets of two Syrian companies have been frozen, an EU official said. Bashar Assad himself has been the subject of EU sanctions since May.
Also Friday, the United Nations' top human rights body sharply condemned the crackdown and the U.N. announced that the joint U.N.-Arab League envoy, Kofi Annan, would travel to Russia and China for more talks aimed at resolving the crisis peacefully.
The U.N. estimates that more than 8,000 people have been killed since an uprising began in Syria a year ago.
The EU has imposed 12 previous rounds of sanctions against the Syrian regime, yet the crackdown has only intensified.
But French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe said he believes the regime is getting weaker. "Their economic situation becomes ever more difficult. Syria has few reserves," Juppe told reporters. "We think its economic situation will become untenable."
Asma Assad, 36, was born in London, spent much of her life there, and has British citizenship. She has been seen as the softer face of the ruling family ? an attractive and refined woman dubbed "chic" by France's Elle magazine and "sexy" by The Sun, Britain's top-selling tabloid.
In thousands of personal e-mails apparently intercepted by the Syrian opposition and published in newspapers earlier this month, Mrs. Assad demonstrated a love of expensive furniture, fine jewelry and Christian Louboutin shoes. In one email she was reported to have ordered ?35,000 ($46,300) worth of furniture and candlesticks from a Paris boutique.
"We had a certain number of indications ? I am sure it has not escaped you ? how the wife of President Assad uses her money. It is perhaps this that pushed us to toughen the sanctions," Juppe said.
A month before the start of the Syrian regime's brutal repression, Vogue magazine praised her for her charity work, calling her "A Rose of the Desert."
Asma Assad, who is of Syrian heritage, moved to the country in 2000 to marry the president, who had previously been an ophthalmologist in Britain.
Britain's Home Office said Friday that a British citizen subject to a EU travel ban could not be refused entry into the country.
But British Foreign Secretary William Hague said that "given that we are imposing an asset freeze on all of these individuals and a travel ban on other members of the same family and the regime, we are not expecting Mrs. Assad to try to travel to the United Kingdom at the moment."
Annan and two aides will go to Moscow and Beijing to press the case for his six-point plan, said his spokesman, Ahmad Fawzi. Western countries have pushed for U.N. Security Council action, but Russia and China have twice vetoed resolutions criticizing Assad's regime.
"Negotiations are at a very delicate stage. He's not going to mediate through the media," Fawzi said of Annan. "The crisis on the ground is severe. We have to make progress on the ground soon. Every minute counts."
Fawzi told reporters Friday that Annan's team is "currently studying the Syrian responses carefully and negotiations with Damascus continue."
On Wednesday, the U.N. Security Council issued a nonbinding statement calling for a cease-fire and endorsing Annan's plan, which includes continued talks and a daily two-hour halt in the fighting to provide aid.
Hague, speaking in Brussels, where the EU foreign ministers are meeting, said Friday that it is very important to increase pressure on the Syrian regime. "Their behavior continues to be murdering and totally unacceptable in the eyes of the world," he said.
In Geneva, on Friday, the 47-member U.N. Human Rights Council voted 41 to three in favor of an EU-sponsored resolution that was backed by Arab nations and the United States. China, Russia and Cuba voted against. Two countries abstained and one didn't vote.
The resolution condemns "widespread, systematic and gross violations of human rights and fundamental freedoms perpetrated by the Syrian authorities," including summary executions, torture and sexual abuse of detainees and children.
It also condemns "the deliberate destruction of hospitals and clinics, the obstruction and denial of medical assistance to the injured and sick, and the raids and killing of wounded protesters in both public and private hospitals."
The vote extends the mandate of a U.N. expert panel charged with reporting on alleged abuses in the country.
U.S. Ambassador Eileen Chamberlain Donahoe called the Geneva-based council's action an important development.
"For the first time, the council has asked its team of investigators to provide continuous mapping of both human rights violations and casualties," she said. "The council has also asked the Office of the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights to ensure the safe and secure storage of all evidence of human rights violations gathered. ... This is the first time such a request has been included in a Human Rights Council resolution."
Syria's ambassador, Fayssal al-Hamwi, rejected Friday's vote as "biased."
"It does not reflect the reality on the ground, on the contrary," he told the meeting.
The council's decisions aren't legally binding, but they are seen as an important indicator of the international community's stance on human rights issues.

Facebook, senator blast bosses for asking for passwords
20 hrs.
Employers and colleges that demand Facebook passwords or other access to social network profiles are doing more than violating the First Amendment, as advocates argue. They're also violating Facebook's terms of service.
Almost three weeks after Bob Sullivan of msnbc.com's Red Tape Chronicles first broke the story of government agencies and colleges demanding inappropriate access to Facebook accounts, both the social network and a U.S. senator are calling shenanigans on this violation of privacy, which is also a potential liability problem for the inquiring institutions.
On Friday,?Erin Egan, Facebook's chief privacy officer on policy, was direct?and referenced the possibility of legal action.
The practice of requesting Facebook passwords and other access to user profiles "undermines the privacy expectations and the security of both the user and the user's friends," Egan said in a statement on the social network's privacy page. "It also potentially exposes the employer who seeks this access to unanticipated legal liability."?
As an example, Egan?posited, "if an employer sees on Facebook that someone is a member of a protected group (e.g. over a certain age, etc.) that employer may open themselves up to claims of discrimination if they don't hire that person."
Egan went on to say,?it is now a "violation of Facebook's Statement of Rights and Responsibilities to share or solicit a Facebook password."
On Wednesday,?Sen. Richard Blumenthal D-Conn. told Politico?he's writing a bill that would outlaw the practice as well:
The senator cited longstanding federal prohibitions against administering polygraph tests to potential employees as a rationale for a new law.
Even for prospective employees who voluntarily surrendered account access to improve their chances of landing a job, Blumenthal said there remain concerns. "The coercive element of the request," he said, "really makes it less than voluntary."
ACLU attorney Catherine Crump had stronger words for the practice. "People are entitled to their private lives,"?she said in a statement. "You'd be appalled if your employer insisted on opening up your postal mail to see if there was anything of interest inside. It's equally out of bounds for an employer to go on a fishing expedition through a person's private social media account."
Here are some of the egregious examples of Facebook privacy violations,?first reported by Sullivan on March 6:
In Maryland, job seekers applying to the state's Department of Corrections have been asked during interviews to log into their accounts and let an interviewer watch while the potential employee clicks through wall posts, friends, photos and anything else that might be found behind the privacy wall.
Previously, applicants were asked to surrender their user name and password, but a complaint from the ACLU stopped that practice last year. While submitting to a Facebook review is voluntary, virtually all applicants agree to it out of a desire to score well in the interview, according Maryland ACLU legislative director Melissa Coretz Goemann.
Student-athletes in colleges around the country also are finding out they can no longer maintain privacy in Facebook communications because schools are requiring them to "friend" a coach or compliance officer, giving that person access to their ?friends-only? posts. Schools are also turning to social media monitoring companies with names like UDilligence and Varsity Monitor for software packages that automate the task. The programs offer a "reputation scoreboard" to coaches and send "threat level" warnings about individual athletes to compliance officers.
As well as likely violating the First Amendment, such practices also herald legal problems for the institutions, noted Bradley Shear, a Washington D.C.-lawyer who first brought these cases to the attention of Maryland polticians and the ACLU. As an example of liability, he told Sullivan:
"What if the University of Virginia had been monitoring accounts in the Yeardley Love case and missed signals that something was going to happen?? he said, referring to a notorious campus murder. ?What about the liability the school might have?"
Following scrutiny by the ACLU, Maryland state legislators proposed two separate bills aimed at banning social media access by schools and potential employers, Sullivan reported. At the time of the original story, a Facebook spokesperson wouldn't specifically address the state legislation except to say that many of these school and employer policies appear to violate the site's terms.
Though it was more than two weeks in coming, a?definitive?statement and action from Facebook against such privacy violations is in the social network's best interest, more so than the interests of its users. Allowing the practice ?to continue means more organizations will feel free to make password demands, making users feel increasingly less comfortable sharing their personal information via Facebook. Less sharing on Facebook means less personal info for targeted marketing, which is the social network's bread and butter.?
As Facebook continues to make us more comfortable with less and less privacy, this may be one of the few cases where everybody benefits from the social network's pro-sharing business model.?
Helen A.S. Popkin goes blah blah blah about privacy and then asks you to join her on?Twitter?and/or?Facebook. Also,?Google+. Because that's how she rolls.?

Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G Review
Introduction:
You can compare the Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G with many other phones using our Size Visualization Tool.
On one hand, we like the distinct feel of its volume control, but its dedicated power button is flat to the touch ? albeit, both deliver springy responses when pressed. In addition, we find other customary things around its sides such as its 3.5mm headset jack, microUSB port, microphone, and spring loaded microSD slot.
Knowing that this handset bears some respectable specs, it?s fitting that we find a 5-megapixel snapper with LED flash in the rear ? plus, it?s capable of shooting 720p videos. Prying off its soft touch rear cover, we?re given access to its SIM card slot and 1,750 mAh battery.
Do you happen to love the dreamy specs associated with T-Mobile?s version of the Samsung Galaxy S II, but prefer something a bit more form fitting in the hand and less expensive? Well then, the Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G might be the device you?re after, not only for the simple reason it?s similar in the specs departments while maintaining a more compact figure, but it?s also going to be trail blazing with its speedy 42Mbps HSPA+ data connectivity. Although it?s technically still a part of the original Samsung Galaxy S line, it should prove to be a smoking addition, so let?s find out if it?s worth picking up.
Design:
In typical fashion, the Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G exhibits the usual design characteristics akin to Samsung?s stable ? meaning it?s all-plastic and very lightweight. Interestingly, it actually looks similar to the BlackBerry Torch 9860, because of the way its bezel curves towards its top edge. Even though its overall design isn?t particularly polarizing over other things, above all, we?re fascinated most above its smaller footprint over the previous Samsung Vibrant and Galaxy S 4G, even more when it packs the same 4-inch sized display.
You can compare the Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G with many other phones using our Size Visualization Tool.
Donning the usual four capacitive Android buttons, they?re positioned close one another and towards the bottom edge ? thus, causing us to accidentally pressing them at times. Meanwhile, there?s a front-facing camera above the display ready to take 1280 x 960 resolution self-portraits.
On one hand, we like the distinct feel of its volume control, but its dedicated power button is flat to the touch ? albeit, both deliver springy responses when pressed. In addition, we find other customary things around its sides such as its 3.5mm headset jack, microUSB port, microphone, and spring loaded microSD slot.
Knowing that this handset bears some respectable specs, it?s fitting that we find a 5-megapixel snapper with LED flash in the rear ? plus, it?s capable of shooting 720p videos. Prying off its soft touch rear cover, we?re given access to its SIM card slot and 1,750 mAh battery.
Display:
Surely enough, we still can?t get over the fact that this Blaze 4G is packing a 4-inch display, especially when its overall footprint is smaller than the previous models with such screen. Employing a WVGA (480 x 800) Super AMOLED display, we?re naturally entranced by the poppy and saturated colors it?s able to deliver ? while still maintaining clarity thanks to its wide viewing angles. Despite employing a PenTile matrix arrangement, it?s sharp enough to visibly see fine text with relatively few issues. All in all, it?s a beauty, but then again, that?s common thing accompanying this kind of panel.

COMMUNICATIONS ARTICLES ? Purchase Mobile phones
When individuals buy cell phones, they pick out a lot more than merely a handset: they decide on a carrier and a plan. With every company within the United States Of America, the buyer has accessibility to a variety of technologies and solutions. Make certain you understand your needs before making a choice, due to the fact signing for the 2-year deal that has a carrier is certainly a long-term agreement. Don?t purchase a cell phone until you have made a decision on a provider.
For instance, you may want to understand the networking the various wireless US carriers work on; GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) or CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access). The 2 are incompatible even if each technology transfers data and voice. Sprint, Verizon and smaller carriers like MetroPCS make use of CDMA while T-Mobile and AT&T use GSM. If you travel abroad a whole lot, you may want to acquire GSM, because it is the service with the largest international footprint (along with a standard in European countries).
Read a guide to world phones ahead of you purchase cell phones as a way to make sure that the cellular would work overseas. A few CDMA phones now additionally support GSM networks, for worldwide use, but you have to know exactly what products to buy. Once more, personal specificity is your very best guide for the choice of company, handset and monthly plan. The month to month charges are one of the most important factors for the choice of this provider.
Individuals buy cell phones from the carriers with the most economical service plans and the most appealing selection of mobile phones. Add quality of customer support to the formula and you have a different determinant to examine the various online features beforehand. Nonetheless, it?s no easy element to find out the benefits and drawbacks of each and every owner. You should check out a web site that offers some sort of guide to cell phone carriers. You?ll find this type of means on the web and they are unbelievably helpful.
Which provider has the greatest reception in your neighborhood? That is yet another aspect to take into consideration whenever you buy cell phones. Even so, wireless coverage can just be examined with experience in the network in a variety of physical spots. The Internet helps you with this check out as well, particularly should you blend it with word of mouth. Talk to neighbours and buddies to find out what company they?re utilizing and just how satisfied they are with the services.
To tell the truth, you may not spend days and weeks trying to get cell phones? You must make up your mind at some point!

Anonymous hackers block Mexico pope visit sites
MEXICO CITY (AP) ? The hacker group Anonymous in Mexico crashed at least two of the websites for Pope Benedict XVI's upcoming visit to Mexico on Thursday, claiming the papal visit is a political move to support the conservative National Action party.
Samuel Najera, spokesman for the Mexican Episcopal Conference, said its web page on the papal visit was blocked by "a cyber attack."
"We have been aware of the threat that has been making the rounds on social networks, that was brought to fruition today," Najera said. "This is part of a dynamic these days of a lack of safety and acts of intolerance toward certain groups."
"For the moment, this does damage to the logistics" of the papal visit, Najera said.
The site contained information on the pope's planned activities starting Friday in the north-central state of Guanajuato, which is governed by President Felipe Calderon's National Action Party, or PAN.
The Anonymous IberoAmerica website, which has been a channel of communication for such hacker "ops" in the past, said the site crashes were the result of Anonymous operations with names such "Pharisee" and "freeloader."
Anonymous Mexico said in a video posted on social media sites that the pope's visit will cost Mexicans money that could be better spent on the poor, and is meant to support the PAN in the July 1 presidential election. PAN candidate Josefina Vazquez Mota is trailing front-runner Enrique Pena Nieto of the Institutional Revolutionary Party by at least 10 percentage points in most polls on the race.
The official campaign season starts at the end of this month.
The pope's "visit comes precisely at the start of the electoral campaigns," said the faceless Anonymous figure in the video. "The PAN will take this as a political weapon to win the votes of millions of Catholics in Mexico."
Guanajuato is 93.8 percent Roman Catholic, the highest of any state in Mexico.
When asked about the timing of the pope's visit, Calderon's office released a March 11 press release noting that Calderon invited the pope in 2007.
Some people have also questioned the pope's decision not to come to liberal Mexico City, where legislators have legalized abortion and gay marriage in the federal district. The Vatican has said the pope cannot be at high altitudes. Mexico City is about 7,300 feet (2,225 meters) above sea level.
Another website with information on where to stay in Guanajuato and how to attend papal events was also crashed. That site was registered to Juan Carlos Mata Ruiz and a group called NIC Mexico.
The website of the Guanajuato state government was also out of service Thursday, the state press office acknowledged, but it would not say whether that was a result of hacking or a cyber attack.
