I feel honoured! I tried to tell the farm-hand that he was now famous, but he's still off doing the farmer's daughter.

Hey David, great thing you're doing here to promo our AOC2 book for the kids; definitely got my attention with the Zemanta reblog tool as well. Looks like you're all over the latest and greatest gizmos here, so I've added you to my Google reader to keep in touch more. Thanks for the outreach...

p.s. Shaping Youth is one of the 20 featured nonprofits on the new Oodle/Facebook Marketplace app (like a virtual garage sale) since no one has any donor dollars these days---So if you want to 'sell for a cause' I could sure use some of your social media clout to get the word out!

Here's my post about it: http://blog.shapingyouth.org/?...
Just did a demo today with Oodle via Webex and it looks very fun!

David, only just caught up with this sorry - and now entertained to realise what a small world it is... We met briefly at the Edtwestival on Thursday - you were good enough to watch my drinks at the bar. Thanks!

Great article, its pretty easy to get lost in all of this social media but I think that Twitter has really proven that its here for the long haul, it will be interesting to see how the service itself progresses with the web.

Creating brands worth evangelizing about is often misunderstood. The connection between the core values - the soul of the company and the soul of the customer - is why customers evangelize. They have found a temple of core value at which to worship. It’s mythic. It’s epic. The brand becomes icon because it connects to the subconscious yearnings of the customer, imprinting on the brain. The pictured emotional experience becomes a conduit through which the customer can again be touched by those core values.

Those pictures and emotions then become language in the brain of the customer. And it’s the language of evangelism.

Testing how Digital Biographer site looks from an iPhone using plugin that detects mobile browsers.

Looks lovely - and it works nicely.

I was always bad at Maths.
However - what's the third link, Dominique?

I'd like to contribute three links:

1- One post we wrote on team versus personal branding : http://blog.ecairn.com/2009/02...

2- an Rss feed about Personal Branding. We monitor 1000+ blogs about social media and these are the conversation about personal brandings in these blogs: http://conversation.ecairn.com...
(there is a significant level of duplicate information since people repurpose other people conversations... sometimes with value add).

Hi David. That's a great top fifty. I'm gutted not to have made it into there, but I will work on being especially witty in Feb to try and creep in.

Joe, thanks for the link.

These are just my personal favourites from people I follow or happen to see tweets from - I've seen a couple of places where you can 'vote up' great tweets, but I don't think you can beat just choosing stuff that makes you smile.

I think there's a lot more that might be done with Twitter favourites - if only I had the patience and time to learn how to work with the Twitter API!

I might try working something in with http://pligg.com, the Open Source 'Digg' clone.

Regards, David

Geez, these are the best? Some are good, but you know there's leaderboard for clever tweets -

I really enjoyed your bio, David. Especially the part referencing the kilt and your adoptive languages. Thank you for the shout. I speak Italian and some German and understand French and Spanish. Overall though I speak the universal language of conversation - 2 parts learning about you and others, 1 part sharing what I know. Thank you for publishing this series. It's a nice homage to the team that made the project possible.

Re: Can marketers smell the social media coffee yet?

Roger Warner, C&M — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 04:36:25 -0000

Great post. Amen. All this kind of noise is great because its putting Social on the marketing map in a big way. But Social isn't 'Media' in the way we've come to know and love media networks. And Viral is a bad word.... One requires broadcast and one requires someone with a germ to sneeze it.... both are anti-Social. Like you say, the best use of Social is for listenting first, then learning, then getting involved. Forget the whiz bang tech and new platforms - that's just about communicating - like... talking. Which also means its a f*ck of a lot of hard work....!!
