You Need to Make Something

December 3, 2011 By Bryan Vartabedian · Reading Time: < 1 minutes

I know this woman – a physician.  She spends a lot of time on Twitter. She has a Tumblr presence but it’s sparse and not very memorable.  All day long she polishes her Twitter presence.  She’s everyone’s friend.  And to her credit she’s a wonderful curator.  We caught up recently and she wanted to know how she could bring herself to the next level.

October 29, 2009 By Bryan Vartabedian · Reading Time: < 1 minutes
