A Blogging Blast From The Past
I recently discovered that Vince Ferraro had a blog. I know you’re thinking, “Big deal. Who’s Vince Ferraro?” When I first started at HP (almost 3 years ago), one of my very first projects was to manage the LaserJet Printing Blog. I know you’re super jealous, who wouldn’t want to manage a blog about LaserJet [...]
The Only 3 Blogging Guidelines Your Company Needs
I love the simplicity and directness of these guidelines. Remember this is for blogging and I don’t think this is enough for general employee social media guidelines. Only employees that have been through media training and are current in their business code of conduct training. This one rule obviously bypasses the need to include a [...]
What “What ___ Can Teach us about blogging” can teach us about blogging.
I don’t have many rules when I sit down to decide what to write here on my little slice of the internets, but one I try to stick to is “Avoid reactive post structure.”. You won’t see me writing about the Facebook/Nestle thing, Motrin Moms, or Skittles.com for two very good reasons: The attention span [...]
The Non-Blog and Dr. M von Vogelhausen
What do you call blogs that aren’t on a blogging platform? I call them non-blogs? I noticed this trend a few years ago when I would discover very active people in the social media space who didn’t have blogs using tools like StumbleUpon and then later FriendFeed for their blog. Not in addition to a [...]
Will Flip Fight Back Against Apple, or is it too Late?
Image by Tac Anderson via Flickr I love my 8 gig Flip UltraHD. Here at Waggener Edstrom we love our Flip cameras. Mashable even had a great guide today on Video Blogging. I think we’re about to see some even greater things in the world of video blogging. Everyone got pretty exited when they thought [...]
Traffic vs Engagement vs Influence: Top 10 Posts [August 2009]
It’s been very interesting to do these top 10 posts because it let’s me look at 3 different factors: Traffic: The posts are ranked based on traffic (unique hits) according to Google Analytics. Engagement: How many comments a blog receives is usually considered a level of engagement. Influence: The PostRank scores are meant to judge [...]
Why Would You NOT Blog?
Image by Tac Anderson via Flickr Following yesterday’s post (and months of posts really) about how easy Posterous makes blogging, why would you NOT blog? Seriously it’s so freaking easy? If sending an email is too tough, check out Tumblr. Pulling an RSS feed doesn’t get any easier. Check out my music blog http://tacanderson.tumblr.com/. The [...]
Mobile App Blogging Thanks to Posterous: Regator vs MeeHive vs Byline
If you haven’t noticed, I like Posterous. I think they may have single handedly made email relevant for me again. Here’s my Posterous blog. I also like using tools in ways they weren’t meant to be used. That’s the case with this post. Please note that none of these apps were designed for mobile blogging [...]
Be a Social Media Black Belt with Posterous
Image via Wikipedia When asked what the next hot thing is in social media I say work flow. I know it sounds boring but tools that streamline the process of social media management and allow us to scale all this playing around on the Web we call social media *work* is so hot right now. [...]
I Don’t Care What Google Thinks I Should do with My Content
I’d like to ask your forgiveness while I re-use an overused analogy here. If your only marketing objective is to drive awareness of your message then why do you drive people to a site? This is like going to a cocktail party and trying to get a girl to come back to your place for [...]
