Social media links and other assorted favs for the week

May 29th, 2008

Here are some interesting posts that I have found over the last few days. How do I find my links? Certainly not through RSS — I don’t have time to peruse all that content. I get interesting reads from tweets from the people I follow, links posted on Facebook by friends and also by using Filtrbox, a great little tool for social media/online content monitoring that was started by local Boulder entrepreneur Ari Newman. I search for content related to social media and also online surveys (because I do some consulting for another local start up called SurveyGizmo).

Challenges of corporate blogging: Jeremiah’s post certainly hits on some of the exact concerns that many marketers at large companies face. I seem to talk about this with marketers at least a few times a week.

Targeting social media: On the mediapost blog, a Q&A with Jim Calhoun from Popular Media that talks about some of the interesting things they are doing for customers using behavioral targeting. I had the pleasure of meeting Jim last week, smart guy with a great sense of humor, which is always a good combination.

Looking for a social media job? (well, now that you mention it…yes) Jim Durbin has started a head hunting firm to match social media experts with companies that want them. Seems like a good idea.

Thanks for the link - I should do an interview with you on how important writing is to social media.

Feel up to it?
