    I was very interested in finding your site. I use Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn a little but not really sure how to use them to their best ability.

    I had not even heard about using Skype for social media.

    So I am all ears to find out how to improve my skills.

    I have been using Skype and facebook as well, and am loving it to network. I found a new program that lets you target your market with skype, which is great for networking as well. www.messagemagicsystem.com

    I've created accounts in several social networks, but I mostly use Facebook, LI, Twitter (not necessarily in that order). Initially, my aim was strictly to increase my visibility, however I have discovered that you can meet a lot of interesting people, and I love that part of social networking.
    The added -and invaluable- bonus is that networking online and reading a lot of stuff about networking has enhanced my networking skills offline.

    I use Skype the most and have recently started to use Facebook much more and loving it. I also use Twitter when I remember and have started to join more groups on LinkedIn and adding more connections that way. Ideally I would love to know more about getting the most out of LinkedIn as I know people that rave about it, yet don't see the appeal.

    I also have a profile on Ecademy, Ryze and MySpace but haven't used them for months as Facebook has been a great networking tool for me.

    I was told about Skype by a business associate of a friend...

    I recently was introduced to a free to join venture that really has endless possibilities..

    I had hopes of introducing it to the World through Skype....

    Only problem is learning how to use it..I would like to begin by posting on chats...If that is something I could do for starters..

    I could not find where to post my introduction/comment. I agree to your guidelines although I could not find a box to check that I did agree, but I do..

    Is my intro alright? I hope so.

    Thank you for your time..
    It is greatly appreciated.

    Hi Julie,

    I'm a Skye user (kurt.ray) and a networker (www.JobFreeLife.net).

    I have some questions about the Pulsating Matrix. Can I call you?

    If so, at what number (Skype would be good) and when would be a good time?

    Thanks,

    Kurt Gross

    I enjoy using skype to help me keep in contact with my networking contacts. Text messaging is an easy way to make sure people are available to talk. I am currently researching ways to build and manage my skype contact list.

    I am in the process of helping a restaurant become a Wi-Fi hot spot (See www.squidoo.com/TTK). Although I do not yet own a Nokia N800, I think that is the best solution for Wi-Fi in a restaurant - especially in terms of both web surfing and VOIP calling (via Skype). But, I could be mistaken. Do you have any insight here?
