The mother of all RSS feeds
Another great resource for social media topics is RSS feed aggregator Alltop.com. When you get to the splash page, click on the "Work" link. Then click on the "Social Media" sub-category link. Here you'll find dozens of blog and news feeds. Each feed gives you a listing of the five most recent postings from each site. Pretty slick.
Check out this YouTube video tutorial (length 1:21 min.) on using Alltop.

Twitter me this
Joe Pulizzi just sent me a link to a wonderful post titled Brands that Tweet by Paul Dunay on his Buzz Marketing for Technology blog. Here you can read about how some corporate high-flyers are branding using Twitter. In the post he also lists some links to other discussions revolving around the pros and cons of Twitter branding. This is good stuff.
Here's to the youth of today -- cheers!
Web 2.0? Social Media? Content Marketing? What the heck happened to good old direct mail?
Ladies and gentlemen, if you're like me then you're also trying to figure out how to employ the new tools of marketing to sell your products and get your content noticed.
Let's face it: you've got to play to win, and the name of the game is online communication. You need go no further that the 2008 Presidential election. There's a reason the Dems smashed through the age barrier and got the 18-30 year olds to vote for their ticket in unprecedented numbers. Twitter, Facebook, blogs, and so on.
If you're not familiar with these tools, go get yourself signed up and start to play (for free!):

A great resource for an overview on how to use social media within your organization is the free monthly interactive newsletter ContentWise. The December issue features ways to measure the effectiveness of social media. Always a good thing.
I would also recommend a visit to Junta42. Joe Pulizzi is an aggregator of content marketing topics has tons of articles and blog links on the subject at hand.
