Review: Personal Branding Blog

by

Site: http://personalbrandingblog.com/

PROS: Covers a variety of personal branding issues, often with a sense of humor.  Has a useful "beginner" section in the "About" and a variety of resources.

CONS: Wide variety may limit usefulness.  Requires some time if you're not used to personal branding.  Blog does play a role in promotion of its members (as to be expected).  Blog is definitely focused on its subject – nothing extraneous here.

SUMMARY: A diverse resource for personal branding, worth at least temporarily putting into your newsfeed to see if you'll use it.

Review: Punk Rock HR

REVIEW: http://punkrockhr.com/

PROS: A snarky, intelligent look inside human resources specifically – and the world of hiring and HR in general

CONS: Focus is on HR and may not be for everyone.  Blog is also personal and is not always about HR/career issues in a few cases.

SUMMARY: An attitude-laden, heartfelt blog on HR, hiring, and corporate behavior with personal insights on other areas. Great for HR professionals, good for people who are career-minded because you'll learn a lot.  Worth visiting to see if it'll help your job search/career needs.

Review: Retaggr.com

PROS: Easy to use, convenient, provides some excellent services, currently free.
CONS: Social Media Profile feature is simple and is more of a personal profile or supplimental site.

SUMMARY: A quick and easy way to track your social media involvements and make them easily accessible to people.  Worth the free price, and actually worth the nominal yearly fee they may eventually charge for some services, depending on your needs.
