During our January Dinner, I made the announcement about my new employer; RenovoData Services, a Marine-owned business.  RenovoData Services is an environmentally friendly electronics recycler.  We gladly accept pc's, business phone systems, laptops, servers, usp's, switches, hubs, routers, cell phones etc.  The first & third Wednesday of every month we host DataShred Wednesdays from 1130 - 1330 HOURS at 6887 Washington Avenue South - Edina, MN 55439.  Come visit us, bring your stuff and check out our offices of operation.  If you have more items than you want to deal with, just give us a call, we'd love to come to you.  Oh, one more thing, if you're concerned about the data that's on your old computer, data disks or CD's - HAVE NO FEAR our mobile shredding vehicle can 'shred' those concerns in an instant...just take a look at the following pictures:

SOCIAL

 

drink_facebookThe Metro Marines have landed on Facebook, Twitter & LinkedIn!  Thank you to those who already 'like' us and consider this an open invitation to 'like' us now...just look totwitter_bird the left of this page.  Although we may not Tweet as much as most, please click the infamous blue Twitter bird to 'follow' us! 

These Social Icons will be scattered throughout this site to encourage those of you that are online to 'like' us or 'follow' us... A funny story about this:

The other day I was talking with a friend of mine that is a bit older than myself about Facebook & Twitter and she said... "I already like you... why do I have to go to a computer to like you?"...

My answer to her was you don't; however in today's world.. that's how a lot of people do it.  The discussion about Twitter went about the same way too... "Follow you?  Where?"  Again, I did not have a great answer, but, this is what I said; while Facebook, Twitter, My Space etc. may not be your cup of tea...it is for over 500M people worldwide and it continues to grow. 

Working in the Social Media space as a career, I can always provide statistics about Social Networks, but, I  also know this about Social Media you're either on board or you're not and both positions are fine. This section is not setup to sway you toward Social Media Networks, it is intended to provide various insights on Social Media just to keep you in the know.
