NOVEMBER 30, 2010

Charities outside the US can set up a profile. To generate a robust profile, your organization should be able to plug in existing social media presences (Flickr, Twitter, YouTube, Blog RSS Feed, Etc) so it seems to favor organizations that have already established a social media content strategy. Is Jumo Worth The Hype?

If you already have good content on other social services such as YouTube or Flickr, you can publish that content onto your Facebook Page through the use of Facebook Apps. But Michaela's favorite Flickr app is Flickr Tab. It's an extremely popular site with over 100 million U.S.

The articles I've read with hype headlines like "My Space For Grown-Ups" or " LinkedIn or Left Out " describe LinkedIn is as necessary a business tool as a laptop or a cell phone. Just like you would in flickr or other social networking tools. Do you really want to be friends with everyone?

I won't try to speak for them, but I do think they aren't blindly following the latest tech hype and hoping it will change the world — many of them have clear social change strategies. I can see how the author might have gotten the impression that some or all of the folks in Joe's roundup are simply shiny-tech pushers.

gods: Flickr, RSS, Google, etc. Deliver, don’t just hype - of course, marketing is important, but when the rubber really has to meet the road, be there with more than vaporware.

Flickr photo by Beth. " As a marketing person, I would be annoyed if every promotion was successful and extremely hyped but did not somehow lead to a sale. And the network weaving. Plus the Whuffie factor. That's a prelude to all of this. This would fulfill my need "to belong" and be recognized.

If you don’t watch Big Brother , The Apprentice , Dancing with the Stars or X factor you probably dismiss these shows because they revolve around people you don’t know in an environment you find uninteresting and over-hyped. It was clear that their publicity had more impact with our audience than our tweeting and Flickr posts.

Some museums are using Flickr to allow people to comment on exhibit images. And then, once you’re ready, you’ll be able to cut through the hype and the techno babble to create something that truly works for you and your visitors.

When I started using flickr, librarything, and grand central they were all in beta. That way, staff are learning, stretching, and feeling supported in taking risks (which will make them more willing to take the risks that lead to the great ideas).
