Fun with Instagr.am – my favorite new app

Posted on: January 24th, 2012 by Thomas Ritchie Leave a comment

If you own an iPhone and haven’t used Instagr.am, you’re missing a great social media opportunity.
It was voted the app of the year in 2011.
Essentially it just lets photographers add one of a couple dozen effects to a photo before sharing it with people in their social circles.
Here is a photo of some post-it notes that I took at work. The edited Instagr.am photo is on top and the original is below it. Something about it that I really enjoyed. Love to hear your feedback.

Managing your online reputation

Posted on: April 11th, 2011 by Thomas Ritchie Leave a comment
On the heels of a discussion about personal brand with my WITCC Social Media Explored class, I read this today in the New York Times.

The story – “Erasing the Digital Past” – focuses on how people today are finding it more and more difficult to leave their past behind.

Essentially they are turning to companies who help them rebuild their online reputation, some paying up to $10,000 a month.

Love to hear your thoughts on this one.

Welcome to my site

I’m in the process of rebuilding my web site to better share the detritus that I create each day online – socially and otherwise.

I’ll be adding my Twitter feed and links to my most recent work on the site soon.

For now, just relax and enjoy the site.
