Before I forget, a very Happy Valentine’s Day to all the sweethearts out there!
Here are some of my readings for today!
“Looking for a job in social media or the tech space? You probably already have a LinkedIn account and maybe even Twitter. If you’re really serious about personal branding, you might even have your own Facebook Page. Where else can you build your personal profile and showcase your expertise? Why not Quora, the online question and answer community?”
“Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and lovers from coast to coast are getting ready. Here’s an infographic built using data from 400 Facebook and MySpace users that might give you insight into love in America, circa 2011.”
“The recent case of a Connecticut woman who badmouthed her boss on Facebook but won her lawsuit against them anyway is causing all kinds of drama in HR departments and board rooms. How should companies respond to a world where anyone can say pretty much anything for the world to hear? How far can policies go in policing social media? More importantly, in the 3 years it will take most companies to draw up a policy, what should managers be doing right now?”
“It seems to take a village to raise a CEO of Procter & Gamble Co. Well, that may go a little far. And given that one of the villagers, in the case of P&G Chairman-CEO Bob McDonald, is Donald Rumsfeld, maybe a Hillary Clinton metaphor isn’t so apt. But when Mr. McDonald describes the mentors who’ve shaped his life and career, he comes up with a lengthy list. It includes each of the five living former CEOs of P&G, all of whom he worked with.”
“Thousands of small, local businesses have accessed ScanLife over the past year to mobilize their traditional media. In fact, nearly half of our accounts are businesses like restaurants, retail stores, or real estate agents that use codes to link to websites, special discounts and other forms of content. While this technology is also used by big brands with huge budgets, its been built to work easily for virtually any marketer of any size.”
