Comment on: Blog Post 'Social Recruiting: The Replacement for Cold Calling': years. You have misread or have reacted negatively to those who disagree with your premise that Social Media will replace cold calling. Nobody made the statement that social medai was a fad, the internet was a fad or anything else. Recruiters do not condemn social media they simply know that having explored it at some length, it is not going to replace anything. As i clearly stated, some of the pieces and parts can and will become part of what we do, others will fall by the wayside. As someone who has only been in the industry for 5 months you can be forgiven for your excitement and your focus as a marketing manager is very different from that of a working recruiter who is in production. Your confusion is understandable. For your edification it is my feeling that in the world of blogging and commenting, one good dig deserves another. It may speak to your character as a person that you assume that anyone who takes issue with social media being much different than any of the evolutions that have occured in this industry somehow still thinks "email or the internet was a fad , people would always shop in stores etc. etc." To be clear....in my personal experience Linkedin has had some value.

Comment on: Topic 'The Man Upstairs is on a Recruiting Binge- Al Davis Dies at 82': d then back to Oakland (you decide what pissed off the Lord). And Steve Jobs will be negotiating a contract to start the development of an Apple App that'll connect the experience of Heaven and of Hell in 6D on a magnified version of the IPhone (which will also deliver actual sight and sound with smell, taste, and feel senses). The idea being that humanity at large needs to be reminded of definitive outcomes. And that our mere-mortal- temp-on-earth status is accelerating to a logical end. Therefore this development, of Steve Jobs' passing is meaningful because Einstein, Edison, Da Vici, Archimedes, Pythagorus, Pascal, Copernicus, Newton, and Rodney Dangerfield (for laughs) among others have been anxiously waiting to get started on thee project to inspire mere mortals to behave as if they had limited time on earth; and that getting along with all others, and our ecosystem, should be the proper focus going forward. Sorry for getting mello-dramatic but the idea that Al Davis, or any owner for that matter who moves a beloved team (I speak for fanatics...imagine the Cubs being moved), and doesn’t have dues to pay is just not right. So Al Davis goes straight to PURGATORY. …; Added by Valentino Martinez at 1:08pm on October 10, 2011
