#FollowFriday: Paul Sutton

What I've seen about Paul is that he is one of the remarkably few people in social media who genuinely understands that all these shiny tools are nothing more than tools. I have some clients that really need etsy and some that have to work yelp pretty hard - and maybe some day I'll have one that needs pinterest.  But should I be all excited about pinterest?  I'll be aware of it, certainly.

If you need a T3 Torx screwdriver, by all means use one.  Jamming a phillips into the slot won't do anyone any good in the long run.  But I don't think anyone has droned on for more than a thousand words as to just how cool a T3 driver is, for goodness sakes.  And some of them are quite shiny, too.  Paul is one of the few heretics who I can count on to say this, and I appreciate that. 

Wait a second.....I haven't been properly "roasted."  This doesn't seem fair. And Paul...anyone that disagreed with Gini is a friend of mine....especially after all that we haven't meant to each other.

@skypulsemedia Always a pleasure reading your comments!

@John_Trader1 He's super cool!

I like divergent opinions. It makes me see things in a way I might not have looked. And for that, let the Paul Sutton following begin.

@skypulsemedia Everyone loves you, Howie

@ginidietrich Ru good lookin or am I gettin weak n the eyes or what?

Basically, every day when I look at SS and see who the guest poster is, I follow them (well, most of the time). So Paul's already there!

First off @ginidietrich you are ALWAYS right unless I feel on the rare occasion you are wrong then of course i am right. But you have a superb record. Maybe @ThePaulSutton is a closet Lions fan? That is possible. I saw him tweet to Chelsea that they don't play real Football like they do in the states. That is why my late Grandfather moved to NYC from London because he heard there was better Football here and he never left. He married a Canadian just to have access to their round bacon. Those English are such opportunists I must say.

Still stumped on this 'defining Public Radio' mission you are all on. I mean he has the BBC we have NPR what more does the world need?

About the photo I saw that same photo on a Billboard in Romania for Verizon you sure that is Paul and not actors?

Well @ThePaulSutton blame Gini if your life is all down hill from here. Roasted by me and the exact pinnacle of your career due to @ginidietrich some people never recover just ask @shonali 

Hi Gini,

I just discovered your blog and will definitely follow Paul. I need to correct you, however, on the "ying and yang." It is actually "yin" instead of "ying."

Thanks @ginidietrich What a totally unexpected but very wonderful surprise. A week before the big FOUR-OH and I've achieved a life-long (ish) ambition with a Spin Sucks #FollowFriday. I can now retire a happy man.

Being your nemesis is what gets me out of bed in the morning. I mean, I know for a stone-cold fact that every single time I go up against you I'm going to lose. But if it creates debate and makes people think, I'll continue to be the fall guy. 

Thanks again, Gini. Feeling very humbled right now.

The best friends are the ones who challenge us. Thanks for sharing @ginidietrich v. @ThePaulSutton! http://t.co/kl9f4d7H

Hey Paul! You seem to be popping up all over the place. Can't wait to read your blog about the latest/greatest PR definition. And I have to agree with Gini and Lindsay--you've got a beautiful family.

Yay Paul!!! I already follow/chit-chat with Paul, and I adore him. Smart and funny and shares my views on Pinterest! ;) And I *love* seeing the family pic - in this weird world of social when you feel "friendly" with people all over the world, it's so fun to see them in their "real" life (er, in a non-stalker kinda way). Gorgeous family!! 

I like Paul already. While I disagree with him on Pinterest, I'm closer to his views on G+. And anyone who understands civil discourse is a friend of mine. Even if they are a friend of yours.
