I just updated my VIPA text message fun….
A funny conversation in MMS with friends.
V-shaped recovery? Who needs it.
Recently, I came across this picture from one of our very first marketing events. We had just launched and it happened to coincide with the long downward economic tailspin. Many businesses had started to lay off workers and there were a lot of unemployed people at the meetup. In a moment inspired by frivolity and a perhaps a few cervesas, we put these little signs on the table. Funny thing, it brought in 40 new user accounts that night. Here we are over a year later and the economy seems only marginally better. Guess what? The wisdom on those sheets of paper still holds true today.
Inacro-what?
- Barista: Are those symbols on your shirt that new symbol social network?
- Me: Yes, they are called Inacronyms and it is much more than a social network.
- Barista: How did you say it again? In-acro what?
- Me: Say it like this In-Ackrow-Nim.
- Barista: Oh, ok...that is what I thought. So, you seem to know a lot about this stuff.
- Me: Yep, you could say that.
- Barista: Is there an Inacronym for musician?
- Me: Yes, why?
- Barista: Because that is what I want to be rather than a Barista.
The Inacronym Cartoon
We recently spoke with some members of the Inacronym user community about our cartoon. To our surprise many of them had not actually read the cartoon until after they joined Inacronym. The consensus was that everyone liked it. Many suggested that we place a link to the cartoon on the blog. We listened and here it is. We have given the cartoon prime real estate on the main menu of the blog. If you haven’t checked it out yet, just click on the link here or on the menu above for the blog.
The new Inacronym Blog
The official Inacronym blog has finally moved to the Inacronym west coast office in San Francisco, CA. It has been a fun journey finally getting our blog back up and operational after a brief hiatus.
The blog used to be maintained in our east coast offices in Greenville, SC, but is now at home in here in the Bay Area of California.
Now we can get back to doing all the fun blog updates we used to do, but now we do it from the comfort of the Inacronym west coast office.
It’s good to have our blog back!
