Jaymunda expands Social Media programs

Wednesday, March 31st, 2010

The Social Media website Facebook has done in nine short months what it took television 13 years to do – build a network of 50 million users. 

Social Media sites like Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, LinkedIn and others also account for 11 percent of all worldwide Internet usage. Statistics like these are why Online Marketing expert Jaymunda has expanded its Social Media Marketing programs and has hired a Social Media Specialist, Fiora Lizak.

Ms. Lizak comes to Jaymunda with a wealth of media, sales and marketing experience. She spent the past three years in the External Affairs division of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Among the list of other national and international companies she has worked for are GE Lighting, Norwalk Furniture and ITT Teves Brake Systems.

Ms. Lizak coordinated internal and external messaging for disaster response and recovery efforts for hurricanes, floods, wildfires and other natural disasters. She will head up Jaymunda’s team of Social Media professionals with a goal of providing a seamless communication link between clients and their customers.

Jaymunda and its CEO Jason Syzdek know that while people are updating their Facebook and Twitter accounts, they are a captive audience for the services and products that their clients have to offer.

“Social Media has progressed from an avenue of entertainment to a means of keeping customers and potential customers better informed,” says Syzdek. “When you consider that 91 percent of all Social Media users access their accounts from a mobile device like a cell phone or laptop, it emphasizes the importance of communicating with them while they are on the move.”

Jaymunda gives you the ability to interface with your customers instantly through a variety of Social Media programs. Jaymunda also handles every aspect of your Social Media Marketing program so you can concentrate on your own business.

“Jaymunda has been integral in helping us get up to speed with Twitter,” says Dr. Patty Champion of Champion Eye Center in Asheville, N.C. “We can now communicate important announcements quicker than ever with this great tool that Jaymunda helps us manage.”

Chrome Sucks – Use your noodle!

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010

Is your browser experience really THAT bad where you have to install an entirely different browser?? Is it THAT slow that you think that the promise of a miniscule increase in speed is going to make your life that much more enriched?

Absolutely Not. Don’t believe the hype.

Remember when you switched to FireFox because you thought it would be faster and safer? Remember how, shortly thereafter, all these websites didn’t function correctly? (And many of you blamed the websites for being wrong! No one ASKED you to install the thing.) Internet Explorer is the web standard. 75% of users are using Internet Explorer. Therefore, more websites are going to be compatible with the standard than with anything else. Doesn’t that make some sense?

It’s like buying a toaster in Europe with a European plug built into it, then flying to USA only to find that you can’t plug it into our outlets… THEN getting upset with America for having the wrong outlets. Seriously.

Internet Explorer (IE) is plenty secure, plenty fast, yadda yadda. Give your web designer a break. If people would stop coming up with new ways to make our jobs harder, we might have a fighting chance at making a better product that adheres to those, heaven forbid, standards.

Honestly, the USER is the biggest security hole in the entire thing. If people would just STOP CLICKING on things that say “Would you like to download this virus?” or stop responding to SPAM, most of the problem would be solved. We act as if Spammers are the problem, but it’s the morons that give them their money that encourage it to continue.

Seriously.
