Video commenting on blogs: Wave of the Future?
In the past couple of months, there have been several big developments on video blogging. Perhaps most important is that two big applications have offered their services to allow people to post comments on blog posts. But not just any comment…these are video comments (I’ll wait for the “oohs” and “ahhs”). The two that I […]
Mission: Impossible? How can UPS use social media to its advantage?
Yesterday, Ann Bernard (social media guru from WhyGoSolo – which is a site you must check out, by the way) posted on Twitter about her encounters with UPS and how she noticed on her receipt a message from UPS, which got me thinking about UPS’s perdicament. What exactly was the message that appeared on the receipt? […]
Video from Podcamp DC: New media and the new journalism
Perhaps one of the most popular sessions that I saw at yesterday’s Podcamp DC, I felt that this session was quite entertaining and it seemed to me that everytime Jim Long speaks, there’s always a huge crowd following him (similiar to Twitter). For me, this was the first time that I actually got to see […]
Twitter, Facebook, or Blogging: Which is a better extension of your brand?
Now before you say anything, I’m sure that all three of the above mentioned applications are probably best used in collaboration with each other to help accentuate your brand online. BUT, what I’m asking is which of the three: Twitter, Facebook, or setting up your own blog, would help create more “buzz” for your brand? […]
Seesmic can bridge the world!
I discovered Seesmic probably about a few months ago and it seemed to be in its infancy, but these days, it’s been making some remarkable breakthroughs including a post from a US soldier in Iraq! Imagine no longer waiting for lines to communicate with your loved ones. If you have a mobile phone, you can […]
Because dropping names just isn’t fun without actually meeting them…
I’m quite ecstatic about things that are going on with my online presence, I must admit. It’s the small things that make it all worth it. In just the last 24 hours, I’ve been noticed by some of the best minds in the Washington, DC tech community and ultimately it’s because I did a handshake. […]
How do you silence the socially literate?
A simple observation from when I was at last night’s MashMeet DC Remix event held at Ogilvy PR’s office in downtown DC… I understand that some of these events often times allow companies to demonstrate their products to try and reach out to investors and those sought-after early adopters (which I’m trying ever so much […]
Twitter Advocacy
It’s kinda interesting talking about this as I’ve found myself over the past couple of weeks mentioning Twitter to several different audiences. One being to someone on the cusp of social media, a group of Generation Y students from college (who you would think are most prone to social tools), and to the public relations […]
Getting paid to be social
So an article posted on Simply-Communicate.com talks about how a company in England is promoting the use of social media by its employees while the common trend is to shy away from it. What’s intriguing about this is that the company, BT, is asking its young graduates that they hire to spearhead this campaign. And […]
Yahoo to layoff hundreds of staff to try and catch up
So have I told you about Twitter? It’s great. I get to find out about the latest news in my industry from folks and one great source of news is Techmeme. Announced today and published in the New York Times, Yahoo has decided to layoff hundreds of their staff in an attempt to save the […]
