Facebook and Twitter come to mind when someone mentions social media marketing. What if your time and money can be spent better on a not-so-popular social media platform?

I don’t do a lot of book reviews. Because I don’t like to skim books, I really read them, and that takes time. However, one book I couldn’t put down was Lee Odden ‘s Optimize , which he graciously sent me earlier this year (disclosure: I received a free copy of the book but was not even asked to write a review).

The XOOM has both a camera on both sides, making video chatting on Skype a pleasure. Compatibility with Flash, the ability to upgrade to 4G service from Verizon, and the flexibility of Android and the Android Market are what makes the XOOM a winner over the iPad in my book. LaCasse, and hooray for your honorable use of it. Absolutely.
