Here are a few items that caught my eye today!
SPECIAL NOTE: The first story is of great importance to young athletes trying to reach sponsors, make a name for themselves and — hopefully — eventually develop college interest!
“Sponsor Me is currently in its final beta testing of its action packed social media website. The soft-launch has been a huge success, and continues to be tested by thousands of students from prestigious colleges and high-schools across the country. Sponsor Me’s new website is the first in the world to offer full functionality on the iPad, iPhone, and soon to follow on the Droid Pad, Google Pad, Samsung Galaxy Pad, and the Toshiba Folio 100 Pad. This one of a kind website exposes and connects the young up and coming athletes with potential sponsors while contests are broadcasted live in HD over multiple platforms and screens.”
“…what we’re really talking about here is the delicate art of self-promotion. If you want to earn eyeballs, buzz or cash dolla bills for something you’ve dreamed up, using social media is pretty much a must (and a topic taken on by plenty of writers before us).”
“…From bringing the World CupWorld Cup to countries sans technology to preventing rape in embattled lands, technology and social media can and has had a massive effect on communities worldwide. A group of engaging speakers from around the world took the stage in the UN Week Digital Media Lounge (presented by the UN, 92Y and MashableMashable) to share their thoughts on both their causes and burgeoning technological advances.”
