Things We Love

Debbie loves AlertThingy – Memorable name for a new application that allows me to follow postings on Facebook, Twitter and my favorite RSS feeds all at the same time. It takes a page from TweetDeck and provides a platform for easy viewing so you can stay on top of your primary social media outlets.

Holly loves the Twestival – Multiple times a day, you can find me checking my Twitter feed, posting tweets or adding new Twitter followers. There is such a strong sense of community within this micro-blogging site, yet I have never had the pleasure of meeting most of the people I follow. For this reason, I am thrilled about the upcoming Twestival in Wilmington because I will finally be able to put a face to the tweets that I see every day. Twitterers from near and far will join at Port City Pub on Thursday to have a few drinks, socialize, win some cool prizes and, most importantly, give to charity. To purchase your Twestival ticket, go to http://www.amiando.com/twestivalwilmington.html.

Kelly loves www.CopyBlogger.com – The blog offers copywriting tips for success in marketing your business online.  We all know that blogging is one of the fastest, smartest and cheapest ways to promote your business, but it’s your copywriting skills that will determine how well your site converts visitors into sales, how well you rank in search engines and how many links you get.  CopyBlogger teaches you how to use the right words in the right way to set your company apart and help you succeed.  Sign up for free updates today and explore fascinating opportunities in blogging and other online marketing strategies.

Kirsty loves Mobile marketing - The Obama campaign used text messages to broadcast its messages, even during the Inauguration. And Budweiser used mobile marketing to help leverage its Super Bowl marketing strategy. So, when I learned one of my former clients is now solely dedicated to developing marketing solutions to connect consumers with brands with mobile devices, my interest only piqued. ADZ2MOBILE’s website points out that while there are 1.5 billion email accounts on the Internet, used by 800 million people, 1.8 billion consumers are texting everyday! That’s a huge audience that I am now interested in learning a lot more about.

Susan loves Justin.tv – Live streaming video from your computer has never been easier. With Justin.tv you can create your own computer TV channel and broadcast live to the world (or keep your channel private to share only with a select group). This could be the new way to do long distance meetings, presentation and even webinars. But last night I used it for personal reasons: I watched my 8-day old nephew’s naming ceremony live from Tokyo from the comfort of my own home.

    It's interesting how twestival is juicing twitter numbers--I think a lot of communities are finding out about it because of friends/family attending twestival. I saw that happening locally, and am curious just how much of a traffic pop twestival gave twitter.

    Justin.tv and other live streaming sites have been around for a little while, but still no traffic explosion. Perhaps more people need to get high-quality (hi-def) cams for it to happen?
