I am in serious article mode... after two weeks of being to busy to write anything. Finally I have some time to write again :)

Social is not about getting people's attention. It is about rewarding people for their attention.

Understanding social: You don't your fans to share your ads. You get them to share your insights.

To buy or not to buy "the real-time web and its future" report ($300) http://bit.ly/5RBDdb <= It sounds really interesting... hmmm...

Understanding social: It's like being on the phone. You both have to talk, you cannot have a monologue.

Study: Facebook profiles are for real - http://bit.ly/8M21aL <= Another proof that social is about authenticity!

Just finished reading Dan Brown's new book "The Lost Symbol". It easily matches the Da Vinci Code. Simply great!

The "next Twitter" is going to be "social interaction based on social thinking"
12/2/2009 11:26:30 PM - via @baekdal
What we have now on Twitter is largely "social interaction, based on traditional thinking".
12/2/2009 11:26:17 PM - via @baekdal
Personally, I do not think that the type of social we have today, will last another 5 years...

But coupons etc is important, but you need to mix it with real people - a real connection, then you get something special.
11/9/2009 4:35:52 PM - via @baekdal
BTW: I don't agree with that assumption (that coupons drive engagement). If that was the only thing you did, then you would have no brand.

I seriously need a power-nap. My brain just refuses to work today... I have been looking at the same slide for 2 hours now...

I'm in shock over FB's new contest rules. Essentially I cannot say "Post a comment about what you would use this for, and the best one wins"
11/8/2009 11:23:46 PM - via @baekdal
WTH... it would appear that Facebook just made it impossible for brands to create competitions via FB: http://bit.ly/1rrXEM

Online shopping is coming to Facebook fast, and now it is really easy to implement: http://bit.ly/3xvPJb

I need to take a new picture of me for my social profiles. The current on is over 4 years old, and I look much sillier now.
10/22/2009 9:26:44 AM - via @baekdal
Need a time-machine. Writing about Google/Twitter, another about a new ebook, and trying to finish my work for today... and it's 1:46 AM :)
10/21/2009 11:45:41 PM - via @baekdal
The new Google Logo: http://twitpic.com/meene (not real: I just had some fun :o))
10/21/2009 10:09:50 PM - via @baekdal
I need to write an article about the Google/Twitter search deal... this could be a dramatic change.
10/21/2009 9:46:07 PM - via @baekdal
About Google using Twitter in search: Now you online reputation will suddenly be much more important, because everyone will see it
10/21/2009 9:42:41 PM - via @baekdal
Wow! Google Search will now include tweets from Twitter: http://bit.ly/2WlyQd - this could be huge! ...and very important for brands!

Aliens are probably laughing at our level of sophistication. We crash into our moon to see if it creates a dust cloud: http://bit.ly/4CRg00

Social 101: It is not a place to market your slogan. It's a place to connect people who do great things, with people who need greatness.

The world is changing incredibly fast. The social world map from 2007 (http://bit.ly/1JXTSY ), looks nothing like today

Hmm... I did plan to bring my Macbook to my secret outside writing spot (to finish my next article), but the battery is almost empty - damn!
10/17/2009 11:42:30 AM - via @baekdal
A friend sent me a link to "David Plouffe - The Art of the Possible" http://bit.ly/urS24 - nice way to visualize creating a social movement

Social branding: You are not company. You are a group of talented individuals coming together to make something better. That's your brand!
10/16/2009 2:49:02 PM - via @baekdal
Whew... just created Facebook app for a client in 48 minutes (that is a new record)... and the shortest deadline ever!
10/16/2009 12:05:25 PM - via @baekdal
Understanding social: You do not market your products, you share them!

Working on the graphic for my next article: Here is the first image: http://twitpic.com/lo0w0 ...and another http://twitpic.com/lo109

The advantages of working with people around the world, is that, for them, it's still nighttime. Gives me extra time to finish my part :)
10/12/2009 9:33:29 AM - via @baekdal
What is the opposite of an egomaniac? (in a single word)... need it for an article.
10/11/2009 10:55:12 PM - via @baekdal
My social media 'tweet' of the day is... there is more to life than social media. And I needed a day off :)
10/11/2009 9:15:27 PM - via @baekdal
Want to know why I think that concepts like Second Life is never going to make it? Watch the movie: http://bit.ly/2Rcu8q #worthwatching

You know that traditional news is dead, when they are depicted as an endangered species: http://bit.ly/wjZNV #funny

In case you haven't noticed: StumbleUpon just updated their site... improving search (a lot) and social: http://bit.ly/1Qulw

Anyone know of a tool where you can see all the comments (interactions) on a Facebook page, in a single place?
10/10/2009 4:48:48 PM - via @baekdal
Trying to decide what to write first: 'social abolished traditional' ...or 'social challenges for enterprises'. What do you think?
10/7/2009 9:43:54 PM - via @baekdal
Too many social metric tool assume that social is secondary, and only track how many times social points to your website. #fail

Running late... again... Need to start working on my time machine.

The Kindle is now available to everyone, not just people in the US (except for the built in browser, and blog reading)
10/7/2009 7:25:56 AM - via @baekdal
Not everyone likes Twitter: http://bit.ly/10D39a (and in some way they got a point... but that isn't going to stop me from tweeting)
10/6/2009 10:59:16 PM - via @baekdal
Google, asking 'what is a browser?', isn't comparable to 'what car do you drive?' ...more like what engine do you use: http://bit.ly/gLT30

Status quo is like quick sand. The longer you stay at the same spot, the harder it is to get away from it.
10/6/2009 9:49:47 PM - via @baekdal
Traditional marketing: Quick effect + maximum exposure; Social marketing: Long term engagement + relevant exposure.

Ahhh... my missing Facebook page is back (after 4 days). I was getting a bit worried for a sec.
10/6/2009 3:15:54 PM - via @baekdal
Saying that social media is about "IT", is like saying your favorite TV show is about electrics.
10/5/2009 6:59:42 PM - via @baekdal
BTW: One of the best explanation about social media ROI is still this one: http://bit.ly/3hl9e
9/23/2009 11:05:48 AM - via @baekdal
Example: If you measure ROI based on how many people you refer to your website, then you are not using social media correctly.
9/23/2009 10:10:08 AM - via @baekdal
Lots of chatter about ROI these days (and a battle between ROI 'experts'), but most are asking the wrong questions, or measuring wrong.
9/23/2009 10:07:40 AM - via @baekdal
Facebook is being a pain in the ass today. It is constantly forgetting to "remember me". And according to TW search it's a general problem.
9/23/2009 2:07:48 AM - via @baekdal
Something cannot be a 'trending topic' if it only last a day... that is what the rest of us call a hiccup.

The social networking penetration in Europe was a staggering 74.6% in February 2009. What is it now? 80%?

Time for a midnight snack... well... a 2:25 AM snack. Sleep you ask? Yes, I heard about it. I do that in the mornings :)
