10 Social Media Tips Under 140 Characters by @shanegibson
"Shane: Great tips in the tweet format! #9 is one of my favorites: "Consistency, conviction, passion and focus are needed to see a social media plan succeed." I have to check out Twitter list. ("#8 Use Twitter lists to let people know you’re listening.") Do you know about a good introduction (blog post, guide, forum thread, etc.) to Twitter listing? By the way: I have asked Team Moderator Leader, Shawn Hessinger, to reply to your comment (#2924) “Really? On a business site? This is garbage…” You rightly pointed out this entry as "garbage," due to the fact that it is a spam entry. Shawn Hessinger will explain to you why it seems that the entry is still on the site, even if I have discarded it. I wonder if we could measure BizSugar's increased popularity based on the increased amount of spam entries! ;) I think I have manually already discarded about 10 - 15 spam entries this morning."10 Social Media Tips Under 140 Characters by @shanegibson
"Shane: I am on 36 lists at the moment. I will create some private lists and some public lists in the near future. I enjoy listening to podcast shows, so I will create a list of my favorite podcasters / podcasting shows. I will check your list: @shanegibson/podcasters-podcasting"7 Ways Posterous Improves Your Social Media Presence | Social Media Examiner
"Hi Cindy: I am glad to hear that! :) I have been using it as my personalized site for myself and my business, e.g. links to articles I have written, video clips by small business people, and some "lighter note" stuff. I have redirected my Martin.Lindeskog.name site to the Posterous page. I will create a new site / blog as my virtual business card with contact information, blog posts on social media and other things that I am working with. It will be a hub for international small business owners, solo entrepreneurs and sole traders (sole proprietorship). I will give moral and practical support to business minded individuals. The site will be located at www.EgoSoleTrader.com. I will continue to use my Posterous page. It is nice to see many of my business contacts that have started another site with a bit different type of content. You often get a more personal side of the business contact this way. What kind of content do you share on Posterous, Cindy? Do you have any tips and suggestions for Bill? :)"7 Ways Posterous Improves Your Social Media Presence | Social Media Examiner
"Cindy: Thanks for your input. I agree with your thoughts on this issue. My home base has been my EGO blog since 2002. Posterous has been great in order to test out a new type of blogging / lifestreaming. Next year I will create a new site that will evolve over time so it could become my main hub for my business activities. I will ask you for some suggestions on the copy and text material, describing my services, my unique value proposition, about page / kudos / mentions / resources, etc."Subscribe
