I have just relaunched JimConnolly.com, also known as my Thunky.
What is a Thunky?
I got the idea for the name Thunky, because the blog was a place for me to put random thoughts, things I had Thunk.
Anyone can have a Thunky. It’s simply a self-hosted blog, where you post the kind of interesting information you usually just give away to social networking sites.
How it works
It works like this: You get an idea for something to share on Facebook, but rather than go direct to Facebook and post it, you post it on YOUR Thunky first… Then share it on Facebook, Twitter, Google+ or whatever networks you use.
The benefit? You have a site that you control, which has the original version of all your most interesting social networking posts. These posts are then indexable by search engines, can be shared across all the social networks, are findable by friends (or potential clients) and most importantly, YOU own them! Here’s what a Thunky is, in more detail.
The site is not marketing specific, but a place for me to share general ideas, thoughts, photos, and videos, with anyone who is interested.
So, why not pop over and take a look!
