If you even glanced at my blog last week you probably noticed a slew of videos from VMworld 2011. What was a simple idea a couple years ago – give people a taste of what we were up to at the various trade shows & highlight partners – has turned into a fun and exciting part of my job. I do hope they give you a flavor of what is happening on the show floor. While I try to schedule some interviews and topics prior to the show(s), many of the ‘on the spot’ videos truly are situations where I’m...
comScore always has some very interesting statistics when measuring the digital world and these recent reports are no different. The 2010 U.S. Digital Year in Review has great info both in understanding media trends and knowing what the end user is actually doing out there. The 2010 Mobile Year in Review is also interesting in looking at mobile device and OS trends and the differences worldwide, both in models and what users are utilizing them for. There are tons of graphs and analysis covering areas like U.S. Retail E-Commerce Spending, Percent of Time Spent for Top 5 U.S. Web Properties, ...
Last week I did a little experiment to determine what is the best day of the week to blog, Monday thru Friday, that is. I’ve come across many stories about when is the best day/time to get the most readership exposure from a blog post and I posted a blog entry every day last week to conduct my own little brief, non-scientific experiment. So what is the best day to blog? Depends. Monday, Wednesday or Thursday all had the best results but in some cases, it depended on the post location. I even waited until mid-week to post these results,...
This is a test of the Emergency Blogcast System. The blogger in your area has developed this test to keep you informed in the event of a blog abnormality. If this had been an actual blog emergency, you would have been offered a highlighted link to click for further instructions. This concludes this test of the Emergency Blogcast System. If you missed the past week, welcome to The Best Day to Blog Experiment and thanks for your participation, I do appreciate it. I’m conducting a brief, non-scientific experiment. The idea was to blog everyday this week, track the results...
If you missed the past three days, welcome to The Best Day to Blog Experiment; you are now a participant. If you are a returning reader, thanks for your participation and for the first time readers, I’ve come across many stories about when is the best day/time to get the most readership exposure from a blog post and I’m doing my own little brief, non-scientific experiment. The idea was to blog everyday this week, track the results and report back. Mahalo for becoming a statistic, and I mean that in the most gracious way. This is Day 4 of the...
If you missed the past two days, welcome to The Best Day to Blog Experiment; you are now a participant. For the first time readers, I’ve come across many stories about when is the best day/time to get the most readership exposure from a blog post and I figured I’d do my own little brief, non-scientific experiment. The idea is to blog everyday this week, track the results and report back next week. Thanks for becoming a statistic. Yesterday, I noted that it was important to have a good opening line to grab your readers, yet I’ve repeated this exact...
If you missed yesterday’s blog entry, welcome to The Best Day to Blog Experiment; you are now a participant. As I mentioned just one day ago, I’ve come across many stories about when is the best day/time to get the most readership exposure from a blog post and I figured I’d do my own little brief, non-scientific experiment to see. The idea is to blog everyday this week, track the results and report back next week. Thanks for becoming a statistic. Tuesday, which can feel like a Monday to some folks – just read those Facebook entries...
Welcome to Monday, typically the day most workers dread but with that extra hour of sleep yesterday, you’re amazingly refreshed aren’t you? I don’t mind the ‘practice Sunday’ for the spring forward event but wonder with the fall back, what if you waited and changed the clocks on Sunday eve – how early everyone would be for work! But I digress. Also, Welcome to The Best Day to Blog Experiment; you are now a participant. I toyed with The Great Blog Experiment, but ‘great’ might be stretching it. Nevertheless - I do hope to get some decent data to report...
There is some interesting research over on Sysomos Inc. which indicates that 71% of twitter messages get no reaction at all, like a reply or retweet, 85% get one @reply and 92% of the actual retweets happen within the first hour. Over the last two months, they examined 1.2 Billion tweets and found that 29% beget a reaction and only 6% were retweets. Heck, even my tweet about the story only got 1 click according to http://j.mp:
While many will take this as and argue that twitter is useless, but Tom Webster at BrandSavant has a different take in this...
We’ve had some exciting announcements of late, like the BIG-IP Edge Gateway and the BIG-IP LTM VE, and lots of great content has been developed to highlight the benefits of these solutions. It’s been a while since I’ve updated you about our Social Media sites and the various ways we deliver F5 content. More than a year ago, we started to follow and contribute text, audio and video to the multitude of public Social Media outlets. DevCentral has always been our social, community driven site, well before some of these newer social networks but we also recognized the need to...
