Facilitation or hosting? Thoughtful reminder of roles when facilitating or hosting. Chris and Johnnie draw on deep reserves to get the group on a new level. Experience says it’s the “person” hosting or facilitating that matters. Useful area to think about.

Visualizing Social Software Best Practices: Three Approaches “If you and I are discussing a photo online, let’s say, then I’d like to know who you are, what groups you belong to and what our relationship is; if not explicitly then implicitly when that knowledge offers clear value to me.” (tags: marshallkirkpatrick socialmedia knowledgemanagement sharing presence [...]

Buy Nothing Day – This Friday USA

November 21, 2007

My daughter reminded me about Buy Nothing Day and made a commitment to forget the shopping on Friday. This protest has been building for years in fact since 1992. I thought it’s a good time to take stock of my consumerism, before the family all get too wrapped up in that gift giving season. Many [...]

OPML – “Our Press Message Links” from PR

November 21, 2007

I like Marshall’s suggestion to PR folks to send him an OPML file for their clients feed. What I’d find even more interesting is getting an OPML of the key influencer’s (blogs, video, etc.) in the category the client is operating in. I’d also like to see included an RSS link included to a bookmarking [...]

Some VoIP applications ARE failing on Facebook! Alec Saunders provides updated statistics on Facebook VoIP apps. I’ll glad he is still getting uptake for the Iotum app. What apps like Alec’s need is the capability to add them to a group. It’s unfortunate that Group Admins cannot add group apps.

Twitter puts many things straight in front of you that you have already been thinking about. Marjolein Hoekstra of CleverClogs fame provided the alert to look at TweetChannel today. I got the invite this afternoon logged in and created a couple of channels. (One isn’t working Brand2.0 – probably the period in the code). I [...]

Building Your Brand2.0 Social Media Channel

November 20, 2007

I can build my own channel in YouTube. In fact I can build it on a number of social networking sites. So when it comes to companies and brands… Where is their channel? Why aren’t they building their own? The problem is most brand managers, PR firms and ad agencies still believe they create content. [...]

Starwood Hotel Blogs

November 20, 2007

Just a few weeks ago I was writing about how a small hotel could create a hotel blog. Now the Starwood group comes up with something that looks a little slick to me. It is too controlled, too likely to delete reviews that aren’t exactly what they want (the benefit of reviews on travel sites). [...]

Getting Bloggers to Blog Your Conference

November 14, 2007

I’m digging into my “drafts” hopper today. This is one of those posts that was almost finished but never posted dated October 18th. This is the point where I really began thinking conference organizers need help working through the issue. At the time I just went “What!”. Oracle AppsLab » Bloggers at OpenWorld I’m happy [...]
