		<description><![CDATA[I have been running so many thoughts through my mind since returning from SESNY. What to write about? I have been almost paralyzed in the depth and breadth of topic choices. Mostly because it seems that with the plethora of bloggers now, my voice would have been merely a repeat of everything out there. Unfortunately, or maybe selfishly, part of me feels that if I am going to take time to write a blog, I don't want to just repeat what others have written, so what to write about? Then last week it hit me. The sudden evangelism surrounding all things social media. The idea that all is good and those who critique are somehow out of touch, or out of date and while some are, something struck me while reading my Facebook status posts and twitter tweets is social media truly social or does it just provide an illusion of connectedness? While it has many positives, what are its negatives? ....&#62;<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=standardsgirl.com&amp;blog=4642463&amp;post=127&amp;subd=seobandy&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was talking to a friend this week and he mentioned that he had been talking to someone about being an SES newbie, or virgin so to speak. He remembered that my first year, I had a kind of list of things I learned and thought maybe I should share it to help make the experience easier for new attendees.

So, since SES NY is just around the corner, I thought I would do so today. Mind you this is all just my opinion, but it is what I have learned about SES conferences over the past three years.  Hopefully, if it is your first conference, it will help you not feel like you just started your first day of high school. Because I know my first time, felt like that, just like that. Did I mention I was a geek and not in a cool way, in high school ;)?

In fact, if it weren't for my friend who suggested this article, I might have just put my head under the covers and hid away. However, he was my first conference friend and somehow that makes the rest so much easier.
So new to SES NY? Here is what I learned.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=standardsgirl.com&amp;blog=4642463&amp;post=75&amp;subd=seobandy&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Do we control the internet?

Hmm...Ok again, pretty daring statement - I know. But before you flame me, or whatever the proper term is these days*, I believe the question is valid.

So what do I mean by this?<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=standardsgirl.com&amp;blog=4642463&amp;post=3&amp;subd=seobandy&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
