A friend of mine essentially told me that I put the “ME” in social MEdia… (ie I’m an expert in it and use it to push my own agenda.) That being said, the following all blogs posts that pertain to all things Internet.
Someone told me that in the future, people won’t have 15 minutes of fame… they’ll have 15 gigabytes of fame.[1] And sure, everyone thinks they can be “Internet Famous” (it’s really not that hard to open a Twitter account, start a blog, or post a video on YouTube.) But to do it right, it takes …
Dear Pakistan, Can you stop being so f-ing dramatic? Ack – what? That’s an inappropriate way to start a conversation? I apologize. I’m sorry. Allow me to (re)introduce myself – my name is Khan. Samia Khan. Digital Media personality. And half (some would argue “full”) Pakistani-American. Why the harsh words, you ask? Um. Because …
What does an Extra correspondent, Diddy’s son, and a tech trade show have in common? Um. They all helped contribute to one of my life goals…a conversation with Justin Bieber (maybe not a LIFE goal, but at least something that 13-year-old SK would think was really dope.) The trade show?

Four years ago, I used YouTube as a way to get a job…in the “I’m gonna upload these random news reporting clips from college and send private links to potential employers in the hopes that …
I said it once, I’ll say it again… I would never date a Blackberry.

Dear Facebook Mobile App, Thank you for providing me with a guaranteed ice breaker everytime I meet someone new. Sincerely, Samia Khan, Social Media Addict OK so I have this rule. If we hang out for at least 15 minutes, and we interact to the extent to which I know your name, I will then care enough …
Yes… it’s another tweet about…ME. First it was Rob Thomas, and next? One of the stars of “Crash” on Starz Channel, Jocko Sims. Jocko plays Anthony Adams aka Panic, Dennis Hopper’s right hand man in the show. There, he plays an aspiring hip hop artist. What’s kinda cool? Reality sort of imitates art. In fact, …
