// ]]&gt;</script>If you&#8217;re a road warrior or just someone who&#8217;s out of the office occasionally, there are times when you need to connect your laptop to the Internet.</p>
<p>Locating a Wi-Fi connection can be a challenge because it&#8217;s difficult to find places that offer Wi-Fi and get information about what those places are like such as whether they serve good coffee and food, and whether there are enough places to sit.</p>
<p>Fortunately, there are a growing number of tools and services that are making it easier &#8211; and more interesting &#8211; to find places offering Wi-Fi.</p>
<p>One of the most intriguing is <a href="http://www.worksnug.com">Worksnug</a>, which is creating technology that uses augmented reality to &#8220;find the nearest and best places to work&#8221;.</p>
<p>Although Worksnug has yet to launch, a video on its Web site shows how you can use an iPhone app and the iPhone&#8217;s camera to scan a particular location. As you scan, information about places with Wi-Fi appears on the screen. If the service works as well as Worksnug suggests, it would be truly innovative and cool.</p>
<p>Worksnug is slated to launch in London and San Francisco before expanding to other places around the world. Unfortunately, Toronto isn&#8217;t on Worksnug&#8217;s priority list but you never know what a little lobbying might do!</p>
<p>To see a demo of Worksnug, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z_Q3yl4NjM&amp;feature=player_embedded">check out this video</a>.<br />

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s that time of year. Here are my five Social Media New Year&#8217;s Resolutions for 2008:
1) Master Twitter. I tried Twitter several months ago, but didn&#8217;t get much out of it. But everybody is still talking about it (everybody, at least, in the social media marketing bubble). Maybe I wasn&#8217;t using it right. Used properly, [...]]]></description>

Here are my five Social Media New Year&#8217;s Resolutions for 2008:</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">1) Master Twitter.</span> I tried <a href="http://twitter.com/">Twitter</a> several months ago, but didn&#8217;t get much out of it. But everybody is still talking about it (everybody, at least, in the social media marketing bubble). </span></span><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Maybe <a href="http://chrisbrogan.com/newbies-guide-to-twitter/">I wasn&#8217;t using it right</a>.</span></span><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"> Used properly, <a href="http://www.twistimage.com/blog/archives/ten-simple-steps-to-build-your-twitter-community/">they say</a>, it&#8217;s more than a &#8220;What am I doing tool&#8221; and more of a &#8220;What am I thinking&#8221; tool with great potential for business networking and personal branding. </span></span><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="http://jaiku.com/">Jaiku</a> is said to be the better microblogging tool, but Twitter is where the people are, and in this world, the size of the social graph is most of what counts.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">2) Live a Second Life. </span>With a new job, a social media practice to build and two small kids, I haven&#8217;t found the time needed to invest in Second Life. But I know I need to spend some time there. Second Life is no longer quite as &#8220;hot&#8221; as it was a year or so ago. (More than one person has quipped that the fact that <a href="http://www.mediaincanada.com/articles/mic/20071102/canadapost.html">Canada Post is now there</a> means the Second Life phenomenon is over). But virtual worlds are here to stay, and hugely relevant for marketers. If Second Life isn&#8217;t the killer world, somebody will come along and invent a better one.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">3) Communitize.</span> I know that&#8217;s not a word. But in addition to writing my own blog, I will be more active in commenting on other blogs and podcasts.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">4) Get Veritas more plugged in.</span> Most of my Veritas colleagues are on Facebook. A few are regulars at Third Tuesday gatherings. Most of them read blogs and <a href="http://www.veritasblog.ca/">some of them even write them</a>. But I&#8217;d like to help my colleagues get more tapped into the social media tools that have made me smarter and more productive in this new world. Tools like <a href="http://google.com/reader">Google Reader</a> and <a href="http://del.icio.us/">Del.icio.us</a>. And if I master Twitter, maybe they will too.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">5) Get myself less plugged in. </span>The future of social networking isn&#8217;t on computers, but on wireless devices. I need to use these tools less often on my laptop and more often on my Blackberry.</p>
<p>So those are mine. What am I missing? And more importantly, what are your Social Media resolutions?<br /></span></span></p>
