My favorite Utah tech/social media blogs
I like local stuff, even when it comes to technology. Sure, I still read Mashable and Tech Crunch, but I’m just as interested in what’s happening along the Wasatch Front (don’t ask me why. I have no idea). Here are a few Utah social media, tech, marketing and digital communications blogs I read to stay […]
The best articles about Zuckerberg at BYU (#ZuckUT)
March 25, 2011 by brysonwhite
Since I wasn’t actually able to attend the speech by Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg at BYU today, I thought I’d compile a list of some of the best articles about the speech.

Utah is home to thousands of do-gooders. And while most of us choose other paths in life, there are always a few that end up dedicating all of their time to improving the lives of others, protecting our state’s beautiful natural resources, or advocating social change.

The “twitter engineering blog” referenced in the article makes no mention of utah but instead states that twitter has moved a few things around to increase reliabilty.

Want to blog for the Hungry Hive?
March 14, 2011 by brysonwhite
Hello Utah social pros: As you may have noticed, I haven’t written anything for a few weeks. I have lots of excuses (too busy thinking about #cairo, #libya, #wiunion, #prayforjapan) and the internet went down in my building for a few weeks. But I’m ready to get back in full gear. But in order to […]
Utah has lowest Twitter usage in the country??? So says a new study.
March 14, 2011 by brysonwhite
Well, I don’t believe it. But according to a report published last week called Digital America, Utah ranks #50 for Twitter usage in the country. The report claims that .35% of the state uses Twitter.
