Review: “Beautiful Creatures”

January 19, 2013 - Author: Melissa Nodurft

Look at all of those pretty people! Emma Thompson, Jeremy Irons, Viola Davis, that girl from 90′s DComs and some punk kids. It can only mean one thing: this movie is based on YA fiction. I saw the trailer for this movie back when Pitch Perfect was in theatres…or maybe Spiderman. Either way, I saw [...]

And we’re back!

January 10, 2013 - Author: Melissa Nodurft

To say I’ve been posting infrequently is a huge understatement. I blogged regularly until June of last year. Then I was in a wedding, got a job, moved to another state, started said job, posted a blog, and spent six months running around the midwest like a mad woman. Yesterday was my six month job [...]

Network it, girl!

July 23, 2012 - Author: Melissa Nodurft

OK, I have been absent for at least a month. Sorry, friends! But I have a good excuse. I got a job! I am in my third week at the Milwaukee field office for Moroch Partners. I absolutely love it and am so happy to be where I am. But that isn’t what I want [...]

Apple WWDC: when I’m right, I’m right.

June 11, 2012 - Author: Melissa Nodurft

The world has been asking for Facebook integration into iOS. Twitter is soaring (bird puns aside) as a result of the Tweet-this easy button found in apps like Safari and Photos. It is high time THE social network has similar integration. Anyone following me on Twitter might remember this tweet I posted a while back. [...]

Made in America?

May 30, 2012 - Author: Melissa Nodurft

Apple CEO Tim Cook spoke at AllthingsD’s D10 event last night. I was tied to my precious laptop, reading Mashable’s live updates. Cook obviously had plenty of interesting talking points, but moderators Walt Mossberg and Kara Swisher prompted Cook to discuss the lack of Apple factories (5.45 on the AllThingsD video). At one time, Apple had a [...]

Let’s just call this Mobile May

May 24, 2012 - Author: Melissa Nodurft

Last week, Facebook shares went public. Then they took a serious hit in the market followed by a serious cry from new investors. Something tells me everyone will get over it pretty quickly. On May 11, Zuckerburg announced Facebook would be making mobile its number one priority. Less than a year ago, Facebook announced its [...]

A letter to my fellow social media professionals and users

April 19, 2012 - Author: Melissa Nodurft

Friends, we are fighting. I am tired of your bad habits. The Oatmeal posted a really great comic showing shameful use of social media. And they were sadly right about all of it, including the observation that marketers are largely to blame. <<<That’s a problem, yo. The following is my very own list of what you [...]

Yo, Twitter, you aren’t helping anyone.

April 11, 2012 - Author: Melissa Nodurft

In the midst of potential racism with the Trayvon Martin case and gender inequality with the “war on women,” Twitter users continue to push all hope for equality out of a very public window. As I’m writing this, #ThingsBlackFolksDo2Showoff is trending. Here are a sampling of tweets from the trend: Who does this help or impress? If [...]

Original Pin

April 8, 2012 - Author: Melissa Nodurft

I’m sorry it’s been so long since I wrote last. My life has been chaotic. Unfortunately, I do not expect things to slow down for a little while. Just remember, I still love you, world. Now for the call to write: Pinterest. Pinterest is a wonderful little beast. It takes reblogging from Tublr and introduces [...]
