Putting my money where my title is
Ok so I thought that I could at least start this post from my cell
phone. I wouldn’t suggest using your phone to blog tons of text, but
there are some quick and easy things you can do to create stickiness
(keep people coming back to your web sites).
Most phones are equipped with camera capabilities. Facebook and
wordpress allow a user to post these pictures as you take them. It’s
pretty convenient. Facebook just has great connectivity options in
general… from video messaging to cell phone management. You can set
up your facebook account to text message you when stuff happens.
Facebook texts you when… say, you get a new friend, and you can add
the friend, message them, or reject them just by replying. Very cool.
Check your mobile plan for hidden charges
As we all know, texting isn’t free, and if you’re popular (I wouldn’t
know) you can rack up texting charges. Unlimited texting and data
plans may be pricey, but if you use them they’ll be worth it.
I don’t know of many schools who do this stuff. You could be on the cutting edge
of College Recruiting!
My thumbs hurt. TTYL
