Hey welcome to tumblr. I bet klout got you to join , same as me lol xxx

At first it did, but then I thought about it. I usually used my Google plus for blogging. But I like using Tumblr for it. The formatting is much more convenient and easier for me to use.

Done With Google +, Almost...

External image

I love networking. I do it all the time. I use Twitter, Facebook and Google +. I think they are all great in their own unique way, but recently I have found less of a use for Google +. I thought it was absolutely amazing when it first started out. The privacy concepts of were amazing allowing you to share with specific people and not just your entire network. Certainly made sharing private photos easier than it normally would be under the Facebook design. Certainly seemed like Google + was the next best social medium. Until Facebook did the predictable and transformed into Google + within the next few weeks. Naturally, this is how competition works. You either keep up with your competitors or you get left behind. 

Facebook started implementing the same privacy features as Google, and Google started adopting the same page features as Facebook. So eventually, there was no way to differentiate between the two mediums. Although there really isn’t much of a difference between the two, most people still like Facebook more. I'm afraid I’m behind the Facebook camp as well, although I still think Google + is great. 

The amount of people using Facebook doesn’t necessarily sway me, but my reasoning can be summed up in a few points:

  • Easier For Networking: I use apps on my phone everyday. And those apps are easily integrated on my Facebook pages and Facebook profile. Google + doesn’t share such a feature so it makes it hard for me to network.
  • Not Many Influencers: Hardly anyone influential uses Google +. I’m not saying that Google + should be filled with celebrities like Twitter or Facebook. But it’s hard to network and create meaningful content when your entire timeline is filled with people just posting GIFs images, photos and news articles that you are not really interested in.
  • Immediate Network Uses Facebook:  All of my friends and family are on Facebook.Although I have said that the amount of people using a particular medium doesn’t dictate which is more successful, I enjoy sharing my content with people who are close to me as oppose to people who are only around just to gawk at me.

Not too many reasons why I choose Facebook over Google, but it’s enough reasons for me. I’ll still use Google plus, as it adds to my influence some of my friends are on Google +, but I don’t think I’ll be posting anything particularly meaningful there.

Man Sues Movie Theater Over Popcorn Prices.freep.com

External image

This story I found particular interesting being that I am an avid movie fan. Although, I was wondering what took someone so long to actually take action over the inflated prices movie theaters charge their customers. Although, it may not have been over the right type of good or service, it is at least a start. Theaters usually have the odd ends when it comes to which type of prices. Most times they will charge their customers too much for the snacks and leave the ticket at a somewhat moderate price. The trends differ depending upon where you shop. Of course, the frustrating part is that they’ll ban you from bringing your own snacks. It’s good to know that some people are actually thinking with their wallets for a change.

Although, this lawsuit has a slim-to-none chance of actually getting anywhere and will most likely be dismissed once it comes across a judge’s desk. There really isn’t a convincing argument which supports the litigation being brought forth. No one is required by law to support corporations, including AMC. I might complain about the outrageous cost of their snacks, but no one is forcing me to buy them. In fact, I don’t even have to see the film. We pay these prices because we agree to trade our money for something which will only provide two hours worth of entertainment. If I feel that a movie isn’t worth paying all that money for and is worth waiting until it makes it on Cable or DVD/Blu-Ray then I’ll simply wait.

From the business side of things, ticket sales aren’t really the backbone of the profits when it comes to the theater industry (unless you are paying to see a film in 3D possibly). Admittance is down in most places and most theaters don’t charge enough for their admittance. Most of the profits come from concession stand sales and it is really the only thing covering their cost. It’s just the way business works. Cost are spread out and transfer from one area of a company to another.
