That is pretty outrageous, not to mention disappointing. Why didn’t they let you have the store item at the sale price. It seems like a no-brainer to me.

I’m miffed with Macys.com- my order arrived in time but they sent the wrong color! And this is a big deal to the gift recipient. I called customer service and they were horrible- even tho my receipt said the right color, I’d have to ship back the wrong one to get the right one and it wouldn’t be in time for Christmas. Her only reply was that if there wasn’t anything else she could help me with today then thank you for shopping at Macy’s. Whatever. Heading to Kohls now instead.

“But, I love my kids fiercely” - That’s the first best thing you can do for your children.

Cheers!

Comment on Social Media and Monetization by Christy

The Magpie ads are separate tweets that go out to your followers. My Facebook page has ads which help support the Facebook service. Since it’s free, it doesn’t bother me at all. Plus, I’m not sending them out to friends. I wouldn’t have a problem with Twitter incorporating ads to pay for the service. I DO have an issue with people I’m following using me (and my twitter stream) to make money. The ads clutter up my timeline and make it harder to follow conversations. It’s like having a friend send telemarketing phone calls your way so they can make extra money.

Someone mentioned incorporating something where it’s a double opt-in process. I could sign up to send ads and/or receive them and would make money on both ends. That seems ideal.

There is something else that bothers me though… it’s the idea that you have to put a price tag on everything. It’s like people who see a large stretch of open space and feel compelled to build something on it. But that’s a very personal pet peeve of mine. =}

I am neither agreeing or disagreeing with you right now, I haven’t had enough time to process the idea of monetizing a twitter stream.

That being said - what about your Facebook page? That is social media and there are ads on that… except you don’t make a penny. I am fairly new to Facebook, but I wish I was making a cut off of those ads.

With the twitter thing - would the ad be part of your 140 characters?

I hope the transition goes well for you and your kiddies! Mine adore their daycare and I love the combination of a few days of quiet to work and a few more of a chaotic, noisy, kid-filled home.
