Well, we have come to my last musical blog challenge for the month of February. I have had a blast creating these four blogs. I have heard that the Media Barista will have another blog challenge coming up, please join in, it is a ton of fun!

I have spent the month reading other blogs that were inspired by the Media Barista’s Challenge, and it got me thinking about how interconnected we are on the internet. I am so grateful to be 49957_beatles_badgeworking and collaborating with some amazing people on social media. I have met some really wonderful people who are willing to coach, help, and answer questions for me when I cannot find what I am looking for. Here is where I will do a quick shout out to all of the amazing ladies of Social Solutions Collective. Talk about a group of women who are ready, willing, and able to help you with any social/internet questions you may have.

On the other side of the coin, there are people and companies who are completely unwilling to help with questions. These are the companies who ask you to provide your email for new items on their websites, or need you to fill out your complete life’s history before you can even access the website. When I search for an answer to my problem and I come across a website that seems to have my answer, but only lets me in if I provide them information, well I turn away from it and move on. I understand protecting material that has been created exclusively via that company, but I do not understand holding material so close to the vest and making people dance through hoops to get to it.

I do my best to help out others who are struggling. I always want to remember that I still do not know it all about the internet, but I have some kind people in my corner who are willing to take some time out of their business day to help me. This shows me that these companies are reliable and trustworthy, as I hope SiteMast comes across to others.

So my question for this final musical blog, are you the type of company that holds all of your “secrets” close to the vest? Or, does your company have the “Come Together” mentality, and want to help smaller companies who are searching for answers?

The Beatles are my FAVORITE band ever…had to end with them! :)
