My colleagues and I have learned that it’s a good practice to try and set expectations up front whenever a fledgling social media project sees the first light of online print. So here goes.
Your Blog is a place for people to help one another use personal technology in new and sometimes novel ways.
It is our hope that by providing such a venue, the hyper-connected power of social media – primarily its infinite potential for stoking two-way dialogue – will help you get more out of your passions. Things like photography, gaming, music, film, fashion, social media … and all things computer related. For Dell, it’s another opportunity to listen, learn and ultimately act in mutual self-interest.
Your Blog was inspired by customers who share ideas and solutions day in, day out across the growing list of Dell social media sites. This one, by design, is personal technology centric.
You can be an avid participant on Your Blog, or just listen and learn from the sidelines. If you want to participate, check out the right-hand corner of the main page and submit post ideas based on what you love to do and HOW YOU DO IT. We’ll prime the creative pipeline with conversations from across the Web and from subject-matter experts at Dell, but our top priority is to post your best ideas, and we may ask whether you’d be interested in contributing a bylined post or two.
Thanks for dropping by, and thanks in advance for demonstrating that helpful ideas and good conversations can be boundless.
