    Are you watching the Super Bowl tonight between the New England Patriots and the New York Giants? I’ll be watching at least some of it, but my main interest in the NFL was in the in 90′s, watching Troy Aikman and the Dallas Cowboys in whatever coverage was available in the UK. By contrast, I was on the edge of my seat during the Ireland – Wales match in the Six Nations Rugby today. And [spoiler alert] being a passionate Ireland supporter (The two manifestations of my Irish ancestry are in rugby and whiskey), the end result was a bit of a kick in the teeth. Chatting with a…

  • Why You Need Social Media Followers Who Won't Ever Buy

    Which is better? 50 qualified social media followers, or 1,000 followers, many of whom will never buy from you? The answer may surprise you. In social media, reach is of critical importance. It directly impacts how much your content and messages get shared, it increases your business' ability to get found and generate leads, it can help extend your online footprint as a thought leader, and the list goes on. In other words, in an online world, social reach shouldn't be a trivial factor for businesses leveraging inbound marketing. So, have you figured out what the right answer to our first…

No, my first stop won’t be the Food Network, Gourmet, or Cooking Light. What I am dying to do is head over to my new obsession -- Pinterest -- to discover the next pastry to tackle. Currently, I'm using Pinterest to save links to just about everything: recipes I love, clothes I want to buy, or furniture I want to furnish my house with someday.

    I don’t know about you, but I’ve always been fascinated by surfing. Something about the elegance of seeing someone balancing on a board floating over the forces of nature manages to be both inspiring and relaxing to watch. But despite a period of trying to conquer skateboarding, I knew I’d never be a surfer. Partly it was down to geography – Kent in England is not necessarily a hotbed of surfing talent. More importantly, I combined a lack of balance with a dislike of swimming. But around the age of 11 or so, I read the amazing Walking on Water by Andy Martin. Like me,…
  • Failing to understand the social media economy?

    Dan Thornton
    3 Feb 2012 | 11:27 am
    This is a great example of how you can listen to someone talk about the way that social media, social business and engagement are all supposed to work, and yet miss the entire point when it comes to actually trying to interact. If you’re not familiar with Gary Vaynerchuk, it’s worth me pointing out there’s some strong language. It’s so often the case, particular with larger companies and the relentless need to show immediate ROI that even when someone understands the concept of earning what they want, that they succumb to the temptation of just diving straight in with…

    Youtube users are currently uploading an hour of content every second, or 60 hours every minute. Assuming 0.25% of all content being uploaded is great content, that’s 3.6 hours of amazing videos every day. That’s 25.2 hours of great content per week, with the average TV viewing in a UK household somewhere between 20 and 30 hours per week. Pretty amazing, and also why the follow-up attempts to enact laws such as SOPA and PIPA will occur with regularity in the U.S, and the influence of the U.S will be increasingly felt on every country around the world which might be encouraged or…

To use it, you enter your search term and your Twitter username (no password required) and Twission returns the tweets as they happen in real time along with a special number that shows you how close that person is to your network.

It consists on a device that extracts the humidity from the air and projects it as a thin layer of water vapors, a special tuned projector able to display the tweets on the vapors, and a laptop…

I remember back in the 90s most web pages were left aligned but nowadays all pages are centered, so unless Facebook was on some sort of weird nostalgia trip, I assumed they were preparing for something. This morning I figured out what.

It had some celebrities, sure, but was dominated by the more cerebrally famous – folks like Stephen Fry, Wil Wheaton and Neil Gaiman. These early trailblazers spread the good word, paving the way for brighter (but perhaps less nourishing) luminaries such as Britney Spears, Oprah Winfrey, Lady Gaga and Kim Kardashian.

  • Metrics Snapshot Tool

    Leslie
    16 Jan 2012 | 11:33 am
    Considering I’m writing Social Media Metrics for Dummies, I don’t talk about metrics often on this blog. Mainly that’s because I’m too busy helping clients figure metrics out in real life. I did want to take a minute to mention the Social Metrics plug in for you. It’s not a tool for deep metrics analysis but it is a great tool for quick content analysis – seeing what’s working for you as a social network, as well as what’s emerging as sharable topics on your blog. For example, you can see that Digg, as a whole, is not a social network where we…

    I have about a million other things to get done today that don’t include writing a blog post, but I’m all about being as open and helpful as possible and I feel this post might help other boutique business owners see a way through a problem, or just feel less alone. When I started working for myself in the 90s I just wanted to work on something I loved doing and am great at. As my business grew I found my time increasingly divided between maker and manager and the budget strained (I talked about starting my business with no cash flow here). But I also found success for my clients,…
  • Sea Change In Knowledge and Education

    Leslie
    29 Dec 2011 | 3:40 pm
    Education has been on my mind the last year or so. On one hand we have this public push to devalue all college education for not being some kind of magic bullet leading to getting a job in a down economy. While I agree student loans and college prices have gotten out of hand, I think to devalue education and knowledge for not having enough immediate monetary “ROI” is something we will come to regret as a society. On the other hand we have knowledge for the sake of knowledge – completing something for the sake of having done so – these things have merit to individuals…

  • Creative way to automate your twitter account for success

    Aaron
    24 Jan 2012 | 10:05 am
    Remember the unspoken rule which says that you “shouldn’t automate your Twitter account”? We’ve all read that one before, but today I’d like to prove to you that you can actually automate your Twitter account…. with a little bit of creativity. For some reason my attention is always drawn towards how airlines are using social media. Maybe it’s because I spend countless hours searching for affordable fares and promotions to satisfy my hunger to travel. I love to check out the numerous airlines available and this might’ve indirectly led me to cover numerous articles on how…
  • 7 tips to humanize your brand on Facebook

    Aaron
    11 Jan 2012 | 9:05 am
    Facebook is a personal social network, it’s where friends and family stay in touch, connect, update each other, etc. It was never made for business (until not long ago). However many marketers and brands treat it as another advertising medium to promote their product. Ssssstoopp it.. After starting a new brand on Facebook for my business, and learning from other brands, I thought I should share some methods that I’ve found to be effective in getting people to notice your brand. Let us start with one of the most controversial:1. Put a face on Facebook. Not all brands want to put their…

Hopefully, telling you this won’t change the future and causing ‘ the butterfly effect’ to happen. It was scary enough to see Ashton Kutcher “almost” giving a guy a….. you know what! So what’s big this year? Almost the same as last year, actually. However we’ll see a few areas which will be more concentrated than others. 1. Mobile/tablets I’m putting my eggs into this.

I don’t have a new years revolution set but I do have goals that I want to achieve in 2012. I was able to achieve some last year and I’m making 2012 my “redemption year”. What about you? Whatever you’ve decided or plan to achieve, I’m going to say something which may sound cliche…… just do it, better yet do it TODAY. In my honest opinion, there is no perfect time to “start” except NOW. Now will be always be the right time to do what…

    Last week I wrote a post on how you can humanize your social media presence. One of the methods that I recommended was rewarding your customers. Sophia.C commented and shared her thoughts that rewarding customers is tough because small businesses have a limited budget. True, you shouldn’t blow your budget. Little things means a lot in my honest opinion, its the small things that makes a big difference. Some ideas won’t cost you a lot, if they do, you could always do them on a smaller scale. Here is a list that I have complied with the help of some of my friends from Google+,…

    As our base of Inbox Influencer users continue to grow, we are getting many questions regarding how we drive relevance – and make suggestions based on not just how generally ‘influential’ someone is, but also what they communicate about and to whom. Toward that end, we thought we’d share this post from our own Tim Hastings – Reputation (trust) vs. User Interest (ego) (TagWalk blog) who talks about the concept of deriving relevance from social media. “When trying to find interesting people online, it is useful to be able to differentiate between somebody who…
  • Is Social Marketing Replacing Content Marketing – or Enhancing It?

    cselland
    30 Jan 2012 | 9:15 am
    Interesting post by David Strom on ReadWriteWeb this past weekend – Blogging Declines Across the Inc. 500. As stated in the UMass Dartmouth study behind the headline: Fifty percent of the 2010 Inc. 500 had a corporate blog, up from 45% in 2009 and 39% in 2008. In this new 2011 study, the use of blogging dropped to 37%. Yet despite the drop in blogging, other Social channels are picking up the slack. This was the first year that executives were asked if their company plans to increase their investment in social media. While 25% said they would keep their social media budget the same, the…
  • What’s ‘Best’ is What Works

    cselland
    25 Jan 2012 | 11:38 am
    I jumped into a discussion today on Focus.com where a community member asked the question “What’s the best time to post to social networks?” My answer, which built off fellow Focus Expert Andrew Baker’s, is that the ‘best’ time is when your audience is attentive and available – and when you have the right content. And those times depend – so it’s very difficult (and I’d argue impossible – or at least overly simplistic) to say something like ‘11:00 AM”. Which in turn got me thinking about the related and much-debated…

  • RIM decides it needs super heroes

    Nick Farrell
    1 Feb 2012 | 5:19 am
    The Justice League of Canada, which includes such super heroes as Seal Clubbing Man, Camomile Woman, Hibernation Man and Maple Syrup Boy, has received a call from RIM asking it to send a hero to sort out its problems. Earlier this week we reported the new RIM CEO Thorsten Heins said that he had a cunning plan, but he did not say what it was. It turns out that he had been on the blower for a whole host of super heroes dedicated to helping save the outfit's bottom line from the evil Apple cult. We guess he was hoping for someone who could leap over tall buildings in a single bound, but since…
  • Parliament grills Google on privacy

    Matthew Finnegan
    31 Jan 2012 | 6:45 am
    Google has faced a grilling from British MPs on a joint committee over their own privacy concerns, proving evasive over its powers to protect personal information. Against a backdrop of increasing worries about personal data online, representatives from Google, Facebook and Twitter squirmed under questioning. As part of an ongoing inquiry from Lords and Commons members into privacy, MPs railed at the lack of clarity with using personal information, as well as an inability to protect the privacy of public figures. We suspect they are more concerned with the latter. The trio managed to largely…
  • SOPA is alive and well in Ireland

    Nick Farrell
    24 Jan 2012 | 4:12 am
    While the EU is saying that SOPA was a bad law that no one needed  it seems that Ireland did not get the memo. According to legal experts in the Emerald Isle the government there is about to bring in a SOPA style law which is even vaguer and open-ended. The law in Ireland will allow music companies to order internet service providers to block access to websites. The Minister of State at the department of Enterprise, Jobs and Innovation, Sean Sherlock, claimed that the law is completely different to SOPA in America. It is just addressing the High Court judgment handed down by Mr Justice…

    The Chinese government is so worried that people will say rude words like "Tibet," "Tiananmen Square" and "corruption" on Twitter-like sites that it is expanding its censorious blogging laws to cover them. According to Reuters, China will expand real-name registration for microblog users in a bid to control China's wildly popular Twitter-like websites. While the officials admit that microblogs are useful as an outlet for critical public opinion, they are fed up with them spreading what they call unfounded rumours and vulgarities. It insists that online content must be acceptable to the ruling…

With 160 mln viewers expected this year again across the 70 odd matches, the sponsors may not lack visual display opportunities but add on advertisers esp those who pay match day list prices may not be willing to keep the budget for IPL5. that’s still 5 mln people per game in this countruy of 1.1 bln with 500 mln Tv Sets (300 mln  TV households ) Global sports brands like the Superbowl will also be looking at lower aud…
