We now have 1,000 social media statistics

As a relatively new personal blogger, and a more comfortable corporate blogger, I found this very useful. Especially since when trying to 'sell in' the benefits of blogging and an effective corporate social media strategy to our client base, useful and meaningful statistics are such a key tool. We will definately be taking advantage of these stats in the future...

Have just discovered the joy of a blog writer app - let's see how easily I will get along with this! Maybe you'll even see more blogs from me now I can post on the go :-) score one for the blondie!

Just how dumb do you think I am?

As I mentioned previously, I have my fair share of sumnb blonde moments. However, when watching a documentary on penguins today, one kind souls took it upon themselves to exlain to me how water expands as it freezes. Funnily enough, I knew this!! Basic chemistry told me that!! The dilema I faced was whether or not to adopt a condescending tone and explain that I have a chemistry A level and Biochem degree. Sadly, the polite side got the better of me and instead I nodded and smiled along, probably fuelling the unspoken assumption that I am a bit of an airhead. Ah well - sometimes it seems that I can't even manage to help myself!

Here's hoping that at some point in the near future I will figure out a polite way to state that I have a brain without souding like I'm just tooting my own horn. Ideas? Anyone?

Hello to the world

Having been sent on a recent course for work 'corporate blogging for PR', I was advised to start my own blog. Having been truly inspired at the time to set-up a great blog, scientifically blonde, I was convinced I would have unlimited topics to write about, detailing my daily humiliations and dizzy 'blonde moments' and cleverly contrasting these with the fact that I am clever and have put myself through university to gain a degree in molecular cell biology. Howeever, now that I'm actually doing it, I seem at a slight loss - what exactly should I tell the ,masses - indeed if anyone is even listenting - about the mundanities of my exisance. Does anyone really read blogs? Well, I for one am not yet entirely convinces, but shall continue for a while in blogging, if nothing else just to see what comes of it!

As a writer by trade it should be easy enough to draft interesting content that people will want to read - right? Well, just to give you an initial preview of what's to come in my future posts, I am quite possibly the clumsiest person in existance, have a tendency to get lost very easily, am childlike in many of my mannerisms, yet am adult enough to question life and its existance. The stereotypically blonde side of me faces a daily battle with the part of me that once to scream "I am clever - honest!!" Ah well, let's just wait and see where the blogosphere takes me!
