Well-written. Thanks. I have been learning a lot about content management lately. I have also been experimenting with setting up an e-commerce site using WordPress. Have you ever done that? Any suggestions for me? It's pretty fun learning it. Visit my blog if you'd like to read more. Thanks again for this blog - it is really educational.

Comment on To be a champion: “You have to be willing to suck…” by Aaron Ragan-Fore

I agree, Zack, it can be exhausting at times justifying positions like ours. When you pointed the supervisors in my department toward a web kudo on being among the top higher ed admissions Twitterers in the nation, one of the high-level staffers in the department publicly asked in a staff meeting, “There are *more* than two?”

All the same, I *am* glad we work for an institution willing to take a risk in this area. At times I’m frustrated the UO isn’t in the same rarefied social media air as some of our competitors… but I try to remind myself that many schools aren’t doing this at all.

Good, thought-provoking post.

Thanks for the hat tip, sir–and here’s mine back to you: http://www.dontgetcaught.biz/webdocs/blog/2010/01/are-you-social-media-ready-for-success.html You’ve hit on an important point, and it’s great to have positive examples like this one to share with those who are still skeptical. Congrats on the site and the success.

Comment on Tips for dealing with Dell Customer Care by Laura

Laura — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 00:11:10 +0000

I cannot believe the customer service of Dell. It is terrible. I have been trying for an entire day to secure a return UPS LABEL in order to ship back a notebook and printer that has been weak and broke from day 1. I kid you not, I called Dell from 9 am EST to 7 pm EST on Monday, December 14th and every time I submitted the case # to them, shortly after that I was disconnected. All I want to do is return the notebook and printer for an exchange. This has been communicated to them a number of times over the last couple of weeks and I cannot get anywhere. It is ridiculous.
