Purists will say that using apps and dashboards like Hootsuite or Buffer take away the fundamental interpersonal relationships that are built through social media. By scheduling posts or sending them through these tools, users won’t be able to see the person behind the message, they say. Marketers find other reasons to avoid dashboards, particularly with Facebook. The posts often do not carry as much weight as ones posted directly through Facebook, making it convenient but less effective to use tools. Both purists and marketers may be correct, but there’s one major advantage that dashboards…

Those of us who have owned a Honda likely took two things into account before buying: their reputation for reliability and the high rankings on crash tests. It’s not true for everyone; some bought them because they could be easily modified and turned into street racers, but that’s another discussion altogether. Now that the Honda Accord has made it through nine generations over three decades, it’s important to look at the technology that has driven the car to success. Reliability is not just a reputation that can be built through hearsay. It must be earned, and this infographic that comes to us…

Despite the rise of social signals and the continued prominence of content as primary search engine optimization tools, high-quality inbound links remain one of the three big components in improving rankings. The automated processes have been devalued; low-quality posts, footer links, and sidebar links are a thing of the past and in excess can actually hurt a website.

The robot employment scenario has been described and discussed for decades.

We’ve seen it happen a lot in recent years. They are able to do many of the tasks that once employed humans, even going so far as to replace noodle slicers in China. Should humans be worried that robotic automation could eventually put us all out of a job? Will it happen sooner than later?…

In our pockets, we have a communication device that can be used for voice, text, email, chat, and just about every other form of chatter. We have a device that can surf the internet, play music, play videos, take pictures, and dozens of other tasks that once required multiple devices that were normally much bigger. This device, the smartphone, has replaced many things in the past couple of years. For many, it’s replacing the credit card and shopping trip. M-commerce is becoming “a thing”. This infographic breaks down some past and current stats that point to where we’re going in the future. Infographic…

The transition from traditional newspapers to online viewing has had a tremendous impact on the newspaper publishing industry.  In an attempt to recoup some of its lost revenue, many U.S. newspapers have begun implementing paywalls.  Paywalls prevent a user from accessing certain web content without a paid subscription, but most print subscriptions include unlimited access to the pay site. Though certainly not the first to put up a paywall, The New York Times seemed to lead the revolution with 41 publications following suite in the third quarter of 2011.  The success of these paywalls…
