This Hangout is well worth the time to watch if you want to know more about how Google Apps work Originally shared by Roland Takaoka Our special guest this week is Vivekananda Baindoor Rao   , a well-informed and educated “Googler.” Along with Molly Youngblood Geiger   , these two Google Rising Stars join me this Saturday on Saturday Morning Marketing Smarties to discuss “Cloud Computing.” Seems like a short decade ago when businesses were asking for what they referred to as, “Web 2.0” specialists. And at the turn of the century, the phrase “cloud computing” was born. However, as in most visionary beginnings, the concepts of cloud computing have been topics of discussion for nearly half a century! Email, and other services have been using cloud computing for a while, yet, we just know them as email, and a few services, usually subscription-based, that we don’t have to buy, but we can rent monthly – cloud services.

I totally agree with Andrew Hatchett - It should be read by everybody who participates in Google Plus. Originally shared by John Skeats Dealing with Undesirable Behavior on Google+ There are lots of great people on Google+, but a service as wonderful as Google+ also inevitably has individuals who behave in undesirable ways, as well. This post discusses how to deal with the latter. There is also a section about how to avoid undesirable content and behavior.

It is important to be familiar with that policy both to avoid getting into trouble yourself and to determine the best course of action when you encounter undesirable behavior.

You can see that these musicians are really enjoying this.

You can see that these musicians are really enjoying this.  Maybe not as much as I enjoyed hearing & seeing them.  Thanks  to Adelheid Hörnlein for sharing this. Originally shared by Adelheid Hörnlein What makes music powerful and truly alive? - it is the place from where the musicians play. Janine Jansen allows us to have the feel what true music performance is like: Listening, every moment in total presence in a vibrant We-Space where collaboration and co-creation becomes a deep and fulfilling experience . No ego any more and showing off - as artists so often love to do - but the own capacities in service to the music and the whole group. Begin your Sunday with Awe - and listen to these inspiring musicians who create something new out of the same old music Dave Pipe Michael Thomas Sue Aston Francesco Quarantelli Kate Barbour Lowell Ann Fuglsang Jessica Roemischer  #music   #classicalmusic   #haydn   #janinejansen   #quattrostagioni   #thepowerofrelationship   https://www.youtub...

Some interesting and basic information for #solopreneurs

Some interesting and basic information for #solopreneurs   Originally shared by Roland Takaoka You may know some of these new Social Media terms.... BUT NOT ALL! No doubt you might know a few of these. You might even "think" you know what they mean when you hear them. However, they may surprise you.  This Saturday, Marketing Smarties brings you the hit list of "must know" terms for 2016. Of course, you can depend on us to bring you an assortment of new ones as they become news. Another highlight - Karen brings information regarding an exciting resource for free public domain images of classic and historic interest.

Welcome to Supports for Solopreneurs I created this Collection especially for busy solopreneurs who must wear several business hats , are therefore very busy and time constrained.

I also post invitations to my weekly Being Your Own CEO Business Hangouts in case they would like to connect personally with other solopreneurs who are ready to share encouragement and information.

Phone Apps - New Target for Target Marketing. Trends Add Energy to Their Building Waves! Not everything will be new in 2016. Some things that we saw blossom in 2014 and 2015 will grow beyond what we expected. Molly will be giving us the "insider's view" of the new Google AMP, and a few tidbits of Googley stuff. We will also ask the question to my SMMS Panel, and the audience - "Has Facebook effectively stepped up its marketing game?" I, for one, want to know.
