‪💝 Worst anniversary gift ever? @everett.chen bought his wife, @trickytaipei, a ticket to my Taipei social media workshop as a gift for their second anniversary! They spent four hours of their special day in my session The News Lens 關鍵評論網 香港. I was grateful but horrified.💍‬ • Looking forward to seeing many of you at Social Media Weekend 2018 #smwknd - this Thursday night to Sunday morning in NYC (includes job fair). If you (or someone you know) absolutely can’t afford the ~$250 ticket and believe attending will help you with training/career prospects, write to me confidentially and I can provide a comp pass (first come, first served). [email protected] is fastest. (at Taipei, Taiwan)

When you use words that sound like “immortal” and “divine,” you’re not a believer in “underpromise and overdeliver,” right, @loccitaneusa @loccitane? 😉 (at Grand Central Terminal)

Fabulous views from our rooms at @hotelstage in Hong Kong’s Jordan neighborhood. This is Saturday morning traffic, via Hyperlapse app. Presume it’s much more crowded during weekdays. Hotel Stage is a sponsor of this leg of my global #sreetips tour (25+ cities in 10+ countries in 2018: [email protected]). #sreehk

30 seconds over NYC (mainly Queens) as we land at LaGuardia Airport - via Hyperlapse, the app created by @mikeyk, cofounder of Instagram. #hyperlapse. Thanks for an awesome time in Maine, @vikasb9 and @mollyfelde #mollikas

1st time in Maine! Lovely view from our room at Belfast Harbor Inn, about 55 mins by Uber from Bangor Airport. We’re here for @vikasb9 and @mollyfelde’s magical wedding, through Sun night. #mollikas PHOTO TIP: Turn phone sideways on panorama setting & take vertical pix. Great for outdoors, tall bldgs, etc. Learned this from @greglordstudio. #verticalpano #sreetips (at Belfast Harbor Inn)

3 years ago today, my #EmptyMet tour @metmuseum included a lot of interesting folks, including this couple. @kaitlyn, president of the Future Justice Fund (“all people deserve a free, vibrant and productive life” - amen!) and @mikeyk, cofounder of @Instagram. At one point, when I was giving IG tips, as I always did on my tours, Mike took over and thrilled everyone with his tips. At the start of the tour, when everyone introduced themselves, they just said they were from the Bay Area, so it was a nice surprise when their identities were revealed. 📸 [Are you following them?] • We always ended my tours with a selfie w/ Vincent van Gogh- a Vincie! 🤳 #3MetYears (at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York)
