I just received my Amazon order. I invested in some new books so I can keep abreast of the changes in social media. I already own Social Media Marketing: An Hour A Day and Blog Marketing and wanted to purchase Mari Smith’s new book, Facebook Marketing: An Hour A Day. It only made sense to pick up YouTube and Video Marketing: An Hour A Day, and the newest book out…Success Secrets of the Social Media Marketing Superstars.

I’ll be reading this last book over the two next weeks and will give you a recap of each section. It covers strategies, principles, applications, and social media websites.

I highly recommend any of the above books as fabulous additions to your social media library. Let me know what you think? What’s your favorite social medial book?

CoTweet

Syndicating Your Content
Show Notes: May 3, 2010

Today’s tip was on using CoTweet to manage a “twitter team.” Some of the information shared was about how to use several twitter accounts for a single business, what they might be and how you might use them.

CoTweet is a Twitter service that let’s you add up to six twitter accounts and several team members to monitor their activity. You can assign particular tweets to team members, thereby leveraging your business and it’s response time using Twitter.

Discounting the value of social media, blogging, Facebook, and all those other “invites” you receive as being a viable tool for your message? You might want to think that over.
Gary Hayes, Personalized Media, created this cool app that tracks social media usage.

“I decided to put together this little Flash app (which is in constant development) showing how active & dynamic the Social Web, Mobile Industry and Game Business is.” ~Gary Hayes

Here are just three of the many interesting statistics he’s complied on social media:

  • Facebook 25 million new members each month Feb 2010 Mashable
  • 50 million Tweets per day Feb 2010eConsultancy
  • YouTube 1Billion watched per day Dec 2009 SMH

Still think it’s a fad? Let me know by posting your comments below

Show Notes: March 1, 2010

TweetBeep
Similar to google news alerts (and if you don’t know about google news alerts, look at my YouTube channel, magicinwords for a how to video) Anyway, TweetBeep will send you alerts developed from your settings. The settings include keywords, keyword phrases, people, places, attitudes and contained links. You set it up and it sends you an email when something you’re looking for comes up.

Tweetmeme

The hottest links on Twitter. Give you an opportunity to retweet the original tweet. You can search topics through the search function or the categories.

Tweet Volume

Give you an idea of how much a topic, phrase, name is being discussed on Twitter.

Twitter Grader

Nifty little tool to give you some idea of where Tweeters, including yourself stand with Twitter. I have a 98.6.

Twitalyzer

Another tool to analyze the impact you are having at Twitter. Sign in with your twitter account.

Twitscoop

Search and follow the latest trends in real time. Sign in with your Twitter account. I really like the search feature in this tool. I’m sure I’ve told you about the Wednesday night small business chat on Twitter. You follow the conversation via the hashtag.
