THERE'S A CLUSTER of social audio advocates who complete an audio challenge every year during the month of February. First launched on Audioboo in 2012, it's continued running as #Febooary on several social networks.
One of the daily questions asks, "How did you discover Feboary?" and I made a short audio clip with my explanation.

I'M A BIT of a voyeur so when people I follow start revealing what they carry around, I'm all ears. The question, "What's in your bag?" is part of the annual FeBOOary social audio challenge.

I HAVE STARTED asking our 7yo questions arising from Febooary, the annual audio challenge. [1] I learn a lot through the feedback of other people who use my phone, especially from young Mia (below) who is well able to tap around and voice her thoughts.
The TLDR version is "ensure everything published by Toca Boca is on every handset in the home.

I have taught social media since 2006 when our Clonmel cohort represented 30 of the first 150 Irish on Twitter. Every semester I try to amp up our results and this year our focus should result in a playbook others might enjoy using.
I started the programme by reviewing dozens of eureka moments, beginner's mistakes and shortcuts shared by 45 strength and conditioning students who shared their observations on a co-authored slide deck. Another of their co-authored presentations appears below.

I HOOKED UP with a dozen friends a few days ago, some 42 years since I last saw them. Several of them have no social networking profiles and it interested me to see how everyone discovered something announced on Facebook.

I THINK THERE'S a strong surge of athletes, coaches and fitness fanatics using social media. I believe it's natural to add content through easy channels like Instagram and Tumblr so I set up several assessment methods to measure the reach of content shared via these methods.
I'd like to follow you if you're sharing data from your wearables or tracking progress along an activity grid. I'm learning a lot by trying to keep up with 50 very fit athletes on the social media module in the Sport Strength & Conditioning degree in the Limerick Institute of Technolgy.

A SERIES OF SPECIAL events, sponsored by the Limerick School of Art & Design (LSAD) Media Desk, have generated enthusiasm about the creative multimedia programme in Clonmel. In April, a group of social media, public relations, games development and applied communications students will commission a website that articulates the #LSADmedia brand.
The Clonmel campus of LSAD is the centre point of this initiative. The campus hosts first year social media students, third year public relations students and fourth year applied communications students. A fourth cohort of software developers on the Thurles campus of the Limerick Institute of Technology is also contributing to the planning and execution of #LSADmedia strategy.
During the final week of March 2014, #LSADmedia puts a special emphasis on social marketing concepts arising through Marketing Over Coffee, including:
-- Four tips from @cspenn for dealing with Facebook's increased brand Page penalties.
-- What @webby2001 thinks about the Facebook free lunch plan ending.
-- @jasonfalls and @smxplorer on the Great Facebook Swindle.
-- @bobmoz on The Billboard Twitter Real-Time Chart.
-- @cesardielo Photos getting more social.
Props to Christopher S. Penn's totally excellent newsletter for including these strategic social marketing observations.

THE FIRST WUNDERING MOLESKINE took its very first turn and shared its adventure via a social beacon that ended up on a Google Map. This means a community-based project proved we can connect the creative art of primary school students to a global mesh of social networking.

NEARLY 50 STUDENTS in the Limerick School of Art & Design will work with the #iCollab project during the spring semester of 2014. The project offers an excellent working model of Alternative Pedagogies with some excellent background information on the iCollab blog. [1]

CREATIVE MULTIMEDIA STUDENTS in the Limerick School of Art & Design will set out to find and learn from thought leaders this semester. Along the way, I believe they will enjoy listening to thought leaders on the FIR Podcast Network.
