Here are a few readings for today! :
“Last week we asked you to submit photos of your technology and social media Halloween costumes for a chance to win a $400 Griffin Technology shopping spree. After enjoying a number of fabulous submissions on Flickr(), Tumblr() and in story comments, we chose the five most creative and charming Halloween costumes of the bunch. Check them out below. You may get an idea for a last-minute costume or see ways to tweak one you already have. Be sure to tell us which one is your favorite — and feel free to say what you’re dressing up as this Halloween.”
“When it comes to corporate crises, social media is most often perceived as a culprit. Communications traditionalists, used to creating and managing messages, see the current environment as a polluted one in which a single blog post, tweet or update from a nobody can snowball into a full-blown catastrophe. They point to Domino’s and Motrin, as well as to Nestle and most recently, Gap to demonstrate how things have changed for the worse.”
“Social media remains the fastest-growing medium of communication, with Facebook and Twitter leading the charge at astonishing rates of growth. At over 500 million/100 million users, respectively, it is no longer plausible for businesses to ignore the influence of these powerful networks. After all, they are made up of the audiences business care about most – customers and prospective customers, and those who influence them. The convergence of two important technology trends – cloud computing and social media – hold the key to CRM success.”
