Are you a business owner who is wondering how you can get the most value out of social media? So many business owners I speak to sign up for twitter and facebook with no real strategy. They simply sign up because they have heard the buzz about these networks, or because someone said that they

Think Social Media is a fad? Think again. I found this video had some very interesting stats. It reminded me of the “Did you know” video I shared last year, but more geared towards social media. Well worth watching…. It’s clear that social media can be used for many different purposes….customer service, building relationships with

I’ve always enjoyed reading inspirational or thought provoking books when I have the time. I’m kind of a geek at heart and love learning about history, ancient philosophers and other wise men throughout the centuries whose names have lived on and words have remained relevant long after their time. One such person is Sun Tzu,

Oh, Drew why do you put it out there like it’s easy? I read your comment and thought, “Hey, that’s a great idea. Just aggregate all the social networks so I don’t forget one.” Gah.
You and David owe me about four hours of gathering profile information. Thanks, though – really am glad to have that in one place!

Drew did make it seem like it wasn’t a problem at all…I’m glad he mentioned Retaggr though it’s a cool and convenient service.
@Ben atleast nobody can say they didn’t contact you bc they lost your phone number…lol

So as I’m reading this post I’m thinking to myself “I have just the thing! Get a retaggr.com card!” But then I read the comments and I see that @Benspark beat me to it BIG TIME! Good stuff!
You da man Ben!
But seriously, Retaggr might be one solution. I don’t use it often, but I do have an account and use it every so often.

Interesting topic. I enjoy getting messages through Blackberry Messenger, “just PIN me!”. I also use groupwise messenger with people from work. There are just too many ways…. for some old school people reading this, I’m sure they can relate to “ping me on IRC”. /ctcp msg carl?
Anyway, I’m not much into social media but enjoy reading about it when I can. The outlets that everyone has touched on only covers the ones that originated in the U.S. Japan and China have tons more tools. Xanga anyone?
about 3 years ago
@Ricardo I signed up for retaggr and haven’t used it yet either, I’ll play around with it sometime soon and maybe add it to my email signature, who knows.
@Carl BB messenger is another one I use on occasion. I had to google what IRC was. I never actually used Xanga before, I think it’s a blogging community like technorati, I could be wrong though.
The list continues and will keep growing and growing as more and more services come out. We didn’t even mention that usually people have multiple email addresses and screen names, which add to the list.
Have a happy holiday everyone!
