You’ve come to realize that interacting on these social media methods take a bit of time, and that what you’ve saved in dollars has to be made up in effort and persistence and a lot of human expense. With that in mind, I’m sitting at my kitchen table and I wanted to share with you the first five things I do when the laptop lid goes up. (Note: people subscribed to my newsletter will get my entire day’s tasks sent to them on Monday.)
5 Tasks in the Morning
I open the same four apps every morning: Firefox, Mail, Seesmic Desktop, and TextEdit. My tabs in Firefox are:
* Google Reader – for my news, my searches, my “ego feed” of who’s talking about my stuff.
* Google Calendar – how I live.
* Facebook – I’m not good at Facebook, but I try to stay connected.
* Facebook : Trust Agents Community – this is the online community for my book with Julien.
* Friendfeed – I’m no Scobleizer, but I do dip in and look.
* And then usually tabs of stories I want to think more about for later.
