If You Paid More Than $10k for Your Website, You Should Be Angry

9/30/2014

by Mary C. Long

There’s a pretty terrible trend that should have died a loud death two years ago, but persists: over-paying for a website you really don’t need. And if you’re in a niche area where budgets are high and tech savvy (comparably) low, like the legal profession, you’re a prime target.

Ever have one of those Monday mornings? You hit the snooze as many times as you can, and when you  finally drag yourself out of bed – still tired – the dog wants extra attention, chomping on his squeakiest toy as you choke down that first cup of coffee, and you wrack your brain for a blog post idea, with the deadline looming, and keep coming up empty?

Ever wish you had a system for jump-starting the creative process when it’s playing hard-to-get? Well here it is. You’re welcome.

Stop motion is, by nature and by association, a lot of fun. The disjointed movements are endearing, and most people are first exposed to stop-motion animation as a kid: if not on regular TV, then in those Christmas movies about Rudolph or a snowman (or anything else that would be logistically impossible to create using live action.) This association between stop motion and childhood can be powerful — and you can use it to your advantage.

After touching on why Vine is such a powerful tool for marketers earlier this month, we’re now going to look at the more practical side of video-making: how to create stop-motion Vines that look good and mean something.

So, it’s officially fall, and if your mother is anything like mine, the words “fall cleaning” have been uttered numerous times since the moment of the equinox.

With school back in session across the US, we asked our Teen Tech writer to offer her perspective on a common issues kids and teens face: cyberbullying.

by Olivia Collins 

Sad fact: where there is social media, there is bound to be cyberbullying. Everyone has witnessed it, and maybe even done it. Asking around school, I had a conversation with my English teacher about her thoughts on the issue. 

She made the point that most people don’t realize the comments they make are considered cyberbullying. How do you stop bad behavior when people can’t even recognize it?
