    Big Co’s to Big Co’s We have no idea….. Share?

    I just read about the Blog Council via Jeff Jarvis. Bit late to chime in too and say this is a yesterday’s idea (Alec said that and I read more here, here, and here with great comments.) I conclude organizations must empower customers to craft how the relationship will evolve. See the BBC.

    OPML - “Our Press Message Links” from PR

    11.21.07 | Stuart | Permalink | 1 Comment

    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 […]

    TweetChannel - What’s New With Twitter Today?

    11.20.07 | Stuart | Permalink | 4 Comments

    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 set […]

    Building Your Brand2.0 Social Media Channel

    11.20.07 | Stuart | Permalink | 4 Comments

    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

    11.20.07 | Stuart | Permalink | Comment?

    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 […]

    Presenters Failing the Social Media Communications Test

    11.13.07 | Stuart | Permalink | 17 Comments

    I’ve been meaning to write a post about conferences, conference organizers and how they prepare for a social media world. I attended two conferences in the last week KMWorld and FutureVision. Both were inadequately prepared for social media. I use them only as an example, both were excellent events in their […]

    The WikiWorld Needs an XMLRPC Editor

    11.12.07 | Stuart | Permalink | 5 Comments

    I’ve been on WetPaint today and the paint is barely dry on my posts. Still it just brought home to me again how much I generally dislike wiki editors. While WetPaint is pretty cool and easy to use I still had the usual crash.. when I went to save the page for the first time. […]

    5.17 Five+ Years Blogging

    11.05.07 | Stuart | Permalink | 4 Comments

    I’m an incredibly lucky guy. My life changed because I blog and when I work to engage in conversation. After 5.17+ years of blogging it should be easy to write this post. Then writing has never come easy for me. Still, when my blog buddies Jim McGee (6) and then Ross Mayfield (5) […]

    Listening to Beta / Social Bookmarking

    10.29.07 | Stuart | Permalink | Comment?

    The number of posts on “listening” are increasing! Or perhaps I’m just becoming a better listener. I’ve recently read posts on listening by Dina Mehta and Chris Brogan. I also enjoyed a link back to Valeria Maltoni who links listening to beta. It’s also a term we’ve been using in the development of Mosoci. I’ve […]

    Social Media Club - Enterprise 2.0

    10.24.07 | Stuart | Permalink | 5 Comments

    These are my notes and impressions from my visit to the Social Media Group meetup on Monday night. I particularly enjoyed some of the conversations afterwards. I also met up with Chris Lynn who was trying to twittercast the event, and Marie Williams (who’s working on Pleo!) from Shift. It was a useful session.
    Summary:

    The Social Media 40/30/20

    10.19.07 | Stuart | Permalink | Comment?

    Euan responded to Corporate Listening with a quip that it may be hard within the BBC. I’ve been puzzling over the type of quick test to bring “listening” and social media attention home to top management. For strategy and thinking about the future I often use the 40/30/20 rule. See below - bottom. I’ve […]

    Pleo on the Move - in Social Media

    10.18.07 | Stuart | Permalink | 2 Comments

    Sadly, I couldn’t make it to Poptech this year; having been twice before. So today I watched on live.poptech.org as Pleo a robotic lifeform was presented by its designer Caleb Chung of Ugobe. He also designed the Furby (My daughter had to have one!) and shared drawings of his approach to creating it. - […]

    Windermere Estate - Hotel Blogs?

    09.26.07 | Stuart | Permalink | 2 Comments

    Does any hotelier really blog yet? While tripping though the Madupatty Tea Plantation in Munnar I stayed at a very small resort catering to 30 people. Given the season it was almost deserted with a small tour group of Brit’s staying there. This cottages style inn was a perfect quiet getaway and as the Innkeeper […]
