I’ve seen so much discussion about how blogging is affecting how news is reported & sales of newspapers. Yesterday it dawned on me how newspapers have integrated aspects of social media into their online presence.
At my house we admit that once we had access to the regional newspaper online, we quit taking delivery of the [...]
Newspapers Utilize Social Media
Groups in Facebook
Mack Collier asked if I was going to post my presentation from the Web Community Forum. Is it ironic that I met Mack in a group in Facebook? And later I learned that he has a smashing marketing blog called The Viral Garden.
It was a panel so we didn’t have a formal presentation. Instead [...]
Social Media Podcasts
Awhile ago someone asked me for podcasts on Social Media. So I started collecting links. When I asked on Twitter someone asked if I’d post all of them. yeah, yeah, I nominated myself secretary! So I’ve been collecting them for awhile…
But today I listened to an outstanding one that’s a great intro. as well as [...]
Now is Gone - best practices for social media
Have you read it yet? I read it on my flights to my ACDSee home offices.
It’s a must read if you’re considering implementing a social media program or already have an established one. It was nice to nod in agreement with the ideas that I’m already practicing. And there were times I found myself [...]
Care & Nurturing of Groups in Facebook
That was the topic of my first presentation as a Community Manager/Social Media geek at Web Community Forum 07 in Seattle. It was also my first opportunity to meet bloggers in person. (more on that to come).
Tris Hussey of BlogNation did some great live blogging. He covered our session on Facebook Groups. Jake McKee [...]
Community Manager Role
It’s interesting how many people that I’ve gotten to know are shifting to positions in social media. Following the evolution of the industry is also fascinating. Two have become social media specialists in advertising/PR firms. I’m not sure what Chris Brogan’s new title is? And most recently another friend is pressing his exec’s to add [...]
Creative Use of Social Media
Twitter users are intuitively on the cutting edge! A couple of days ago I saw someone comment that they wished they could order their take out food by text messaging.
Social media marketers will be challenged on how to help their clients creatively utilize social media tools. Consumers want time saving features & efficiency. But listening [...]
Scoble’s Social Media Starfish
Isn’t this a great representation of the social media landscape? Darren Barefoot created it based on a video where Robert Scoble explained it.
Wouldn’t it be a great diagram to explain the use of social media tools? and how they fit into marketing strategies?
How many of these are you using? Which ones should you be trying? [...]
Do I respect media snackers?
Jeremiah Owyang has a video on media snackers on his blog tonight. And he asked some of us to respond if we respect media snackers.
The video provides the definition of people my daughter’s age & how they get bits of info here & there. I noted the point that they utilize free spaces like Flickr [...]
Does social media have a regional hierarchy?
and maybe the bigger question is, Does it matter?
On Sunday I read Justin Kownacki’s post where he talks about living in a fly over state in terms of social media. My first thought was how I jokingly refer to myself as being ‘geographically challenged’. But after thinking about it, I realize how thankful I am [...]
