Baeednah's Bio

I bring you good music

Being the talent scout for FSPS is awesome! Not only do I discover the world's greatest artist, I do so while travel the world. While I am located in Philadelphia and have found many of FSPS's most talented artist here, I have traveled to Paris, Madrid, Israel and many of the islands. So if you want to witness Real talent follow me @Baeednah_fsps, and watch me bring the world's best talents from out of the world's darkest corner.

Matt's Reflection Paper

Squadron,

Just a fast note letting you know that I'll be writing my first reflection paper about adoption issues and virtual teams, something we are experiencing already and will want to include in our manual/case study.

I updated our previous group list:

1. RJ: Difficulty of Technology and Virtual Teams
2. Amy: Trust in Teams
3. Baeednah: Importance of Leaders and managers in Virtual Teams
4. Matt: Observations on adoption issues for virtual teams

 RJ, there may be a bit of overlap in what you and I are doing but I think that is fine, do you agree? Since the process of finding out what works and articulating why that's the case is crucial to our project, I think it is good we tackle this from two points-of-view. I was planning on detailing communication styles vs. technology more than issues with technology in general. Let me know if I'm stepping on your paper's toes here.

Best,

Matt

The FSPS is officially on Twitter!

Twitter IDs have been created for the Team!

Matt-Your Drexel address was coming up as previously used, if you have another email, let me know and I will set it up for you.

Amy:  @amy_fsps
Baeednah:  @baeednah_fsps
RJ:  @rj_fsps
Matt:  @matt_fsps (when I have your email address)

You can access twitter at www.twitter.com on your computer to get a better view of the application.

Your accounts should already have us all set to "Follow" each other so you'll see tweets we send out on your timeline.  It's best to download the Twitter app for your smartphone, however, if you enter your phone number into the Mobile section, you'll receive SMS Text alerts when tweets are sent out.

Just be sure that whenever you send a tweet out, include the twitter handle you want to be able to receive an alert to.  For example your tweet may look like this:  "hey @rj_fsps twitter is amazing!" That way @rj_fsps will receive an alert as soon as you tweet.

Please go into your Drexel email account and follow the link twitter sent to confirm your new account.

Passwords are:  virtual303 (feel free to change them if you wish)

Let me know if you have any questions!
