I want that on my headstone, "The Virtual Water Cooler Is Happening In Real Time". People will be there all day trying to figure that out.
"The virtual water cooler is happening in real time". Oh God. My brain hurts so much right now.
If there have been 50 instances of a "social media crisis", and only 8% have resulted in the loss of money, can you really call it a crisis?
2,000 words on only one paragraph from the worst "social media article ever written"? Jesus.

The police are outside of Burger King right now. I sure hope it's to arrest the cooks.
RT @JillMorris: Top Gun is coming out in 3-D. Apparently, with 3-D glasses, in one scene, you can actually reach out and try and grab Homosexuality itself.
I really can't wait to see the tech bloggers spin the fuck out of this report.
You heard Nielsen ladies, get out those Wonder Woman costumes because I'm "influential"
Apparently using a social network means you're 45% more likely to go on a date, and thus, you are "influential" (according to Nielsen)
So pretty much Nielsen's social media report comes down to: Rich, well connected, well educated people, mostly women, use social networks

I'm telling you, I can't wait to finish this book and be done with the "social media" people forever.
Did any of you see some of these shitty articles today about how people on Flight 93 would have tweeted about the hijackings? What the fuck?
RT @martybeckerman: They do if you hide it in the free cookies. RT @BJMendelson I donated blood to the American Red Cross today because they don't accept semen.

RT @IanHough: @BJMendelson I can't wait to buy your book. I bet it's informative and funny as fuck at the same time.

RT @DanaJGould: Ten years ago, Saddam Hussein watched the news and thought, "Good thing I'm not involved in this..."
RT @holleyz: @BJMendelson - Worst article. Ever. Every industry should be this concerned? Worldwide? What kind of bubble is this idiot living in?
RT @njvinnie: @BJMendelson I couldn't make it through that whole article, I was losing precious IQ points too quickly.
"Digital suffrage is upon us" Yup. Someone said that too.
No wonder @forbes wanted me out, that post today was, by far, the worst promotional piece for "social media" that I've seen since 2007
"I don’t think it’s crazy to ask if your CEO is the next Mubarak" Holy fuck. Someone actually said that. I think I'm going to kill myself.
