And now Tweetcloud.com is gone?

It seems to be a bit of a watershed for social media sites right now. Google+ is nibbling away at Facebook, which itself might be about to undergo radical change. Delicious has introduced a new look and feel that hasn’t been entirely well received. Social Mention disappeared for a short while, making us realise how  [...]

Trends

Quite simply, some charts that may be of interest. For example, note how Apple is supplanting Microsoft in search volume; that PR may be peeling upwards away from advertising and even marketing; the relative fortunes of Google+, Facebook and Twitter; social media may be levelling off; and, especially heartwarming for me, Star Wars is much [...]

Want PR? Been Penalized by Google? Then lead a campaign.

by on May 19, 2011 in PR, technology, socialvideo, socialnetworks, cloudcomputing, strategy, search, Twitter, reputationmanagement

Campaigns are an often-overlooked weapon in the PR arsenal. And, when conducted properly, social media can really, really help – which is what I’m hoping will happen with the ‘Have I Been Penalized’ campaign. I spent some of my most creative, exciting and formative years working with Dr. Marc Pinter-Krainer on the Sharepages.com website and [...]

What do subscribe, like and follow have in common?

by on April 12, 2011 in disciplines, marketing, PR, socialmedia, socialnetworks, socialvideo, Twitter

They’re all ways of linking, true. They’re all different words for linking on blogs, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and so on. Also true. But they all mean the same thing. And that thing is? “I find what you have to say interesting, and I’d like to know more.” This probably strikes you as blindingly obvious, but [...]

Pressed for time? Cute tools that give immediate results

by on April 1, 2011 in blogging, marketing, musictechnology, socialmedia, socialvideo, technology, visualisation

Last time around, I posted about not having enough time to blog. I’m trying to fix this by basically making time – but it seems a good point at which to list some tools that help you get ‘cool’ results with as little input as possible. By this, I mean tools that use your media [...]

If you want to understand social media, do it when there’s a big TV event happening

by on February 14, 2011 in measurement, technology, monitoring, visualisation, socialmedia, research, trends, search, Twitter, reputationmanagement

We’re living in a strange world right now. We’re sort of at a tipping point between broadcast and broadcomment, where we can watch what millions of other people are watching, while at the same time see what they’re saying. This was brought home to me during the Prime Ministerial debates in the UK. I watched [...]

Twitter influence: who do you believe?

by on October 25, 2010 in measurement, socialmedia, Twitter

Two people walk into a room. They both claim to have the definitive ranking for Twitter influencers for your area of interest. One uses Klout, the other, WeFollow. And guess what? Their results differ, in some cases quite wildly. Which do you believe? Let’s multiply the problem. Imagine you’re dealing not just with two people [...]

I don’t like SEO copywriting. Apart from anything I don’t think it has relevance any more. Comments?

by on June 3, 2010 in search, seo, Twitter

This is what I tweeted yesterday. Then I went away and came back an hour later – to lots of them. Comments, that is. So many in fact that I thought it was worth sharing them. First, the backstory. I’ve never really used SEO on this blog. That is, I don’t really identify keywords then [...]
