I walked in late to this session – too many people to talk to in the hallways. Other places to find more detail

Glenda’s recap of day two sessions covers major points from several sessions, including book deals, digital assets and corporate sponsorships

Ducksnorts, a sports blogger, summed up blog and book marketability highlights: “The panelists focused on the importance of marketability, with the two big lessons here being that price is all about perceived value and that you always want to keep your end game in mind, ensuring that everything you’re doing is pulling you in that direction.”

How Not to Use Social Media BlogWorld08 Session Notes by Barbara Rozgonyi @wiredprworks on twitter.com

blog directories about communities @jasonfalls, wordpress lets you ping blog directories #bwe08

much rather write quality content than trolling for submission in blog directories @problogger #bwe08

quality of comments lower on @problogger than early days, rather have 400 readers on topic/target than 40K just flying through #bwe08

think twice about tweeting from a bar in Vegas-even if you think it will be really funny @jasonfalls #bwe08

take out a youtube video & that breaks all blogs w/the video, have to contact all bloggers lesso: be accurate 1st time @leelefever #bwe08

mistakes: past when you’re angry, go for a walk first, don’t damage someone else’s reputation #bwe08

bloggers: need to create a set of rules for pr ppl that want to pitch you: example how to pitch sme on @jasonfalls blog #bwe08

want the rules to be there, ppl should have content and be able to use it #bwe08

linkbait-any content that gets passed around, write a useful resource, creating useful content in ppl’s lives: news, ed, etc. #bwe08

email new commenters, give readers jobs when you’re away, those ppl take a step 2u, u step back to them #bwe08

content is the main part of any community, wordpress makes you pretty good on seo, love your readers to death #bwe08

outreach crosses a line when you take someone else’s space and try to use it @ifroggy #bwe08

our job is to make businesses better, take know-how & pass it on #bwe08

start having conversations and get feedback from ees, make sure ee has a genuine interest – @zappos trains ees on twitter #bwe08

every ee is a connection pt to the brand/powerful mktg tool, have to teach them how to behave.communicate #bwe08

it’s about discerning and setting boundaries, greasing of the wheels that goes along w.being personal @ leelefever #bwe08

theory is: don’t mix personal/business @problogger, twittering about life makes business connections #bwe08

easy to do social marketing – take off mktg/pr and be a human being and have a conversation, be relevant & be trusted @jasonfalls #bwe08

blogs: advertisers don’t want to spend on spammers $ #bwe08

ppl do have this natural inclination to watch corporations for mistakes, tidal wave of bad PR @leelefever #bwe08

over 5,000 marketing messages/day some surveys up to 13,000, social media growing b/c human beings talking to human beings #bwe08

if you have a new product/resource no one will care if your reputation=spammer, ppl don’t want to spend $ on you #bwe08

walmart fake blogs – still has a hard time from coming out from that reputation, hard to shake spammer/nuisance persona #bwe08

be careful about paying ppl for “social media outreach” w/spammy tactics, will end up biting you @ifroggy #bwe08

when you associate w/respectable ppl, you’ll be looked at in the light, stick w/good ppl @ifroggy #bwe08

4 ways to react to negativity: 1 respond privately/2 publicly,3 ignore,4 other people will defend you @problogger #bwe08

when you move to air dirty laundry, everyone gets dirty, best to stay professional @ifroggy #bwe08

spirits case study re: friendly competition, encouraged everyone to visit competition to learn more vs. complete advertising #bwe08

example: canadian club FB app upload pic of dad, found FB club, talked to admin, addressed risk for under 18 shut down site #bwe08

have convos w/legal counsel @jasonfalls, their job is 2 min risk,don’t have 2 have permission 2 link 2 someone, legal there 2 say yes #bwe08

creative commons makes very clear what rules are @leelefever, attribute common craft, communicate rules so they can share #bwe08

think about what is appropriate use of content and how will they share, tell them the rules, find ways, ambiguity is bad, rules good #bwe08

audio, video property rights content wouldn’t be popular if not sharable #bwe08

add value in one place and others will promote you find you, not pushing messages, but pushing value contributions #bwe08

ambassadors will set the tone, really about observing and doing what they do #bwe08

about learning the culture and looking for key individuals @problogger #bwe08

have to learn the language of the place, find a local to work with @problogger, found the lady plurkers to see how they use #bwe08

@coachdeb talks about tribal mktg, assimilating in the community Jane Goodall, have to know rules lot of differences #bwe08

you need to be honest/transparent @jasonfalls, sig on forums says: I work for co, not here to sell anything, builds cred #bwe08

@problgger, one of the best ways is to tell a story, show people how you come up with an idea #bwe08

Ifroggy – info-tisements, adver-questions, take off mtg/sales hat, be a human you could get thrown out a community #bwe08

@problogger uses sm for: branding, research, traffic, deepening relationships #bwe08

how not to use social media inspired by @emom! #bwe08

Microjournalism: Breaking News in 140 Words [Characters?] or Less session notes by Barbara Rozgonyi @wiredprworks on twitter.com

CCSeed: RT @wiredprworks the net is actually a copy machine-off the record is never off the record #bwe08(cool if people honor the creative commons)

CCSeed: @wiredprworks your tweet stream from #bwe08 rocks!

blogging takes me hours, the microblogging I’m doing is a byproduct of living – @pistachio #bwe08

the net is actually a copy machine – off the record is never off the record #bwe08

everybody has to adopt their own personal style,@pistachio tends to default to off the record & asks permission #bwe08

@scobleizer hung around w/John Edwards 18 hours a day, there’s always a story behind what you’re seeing ? what’s being presented #bwe08

as attention and activity data get aggregated over systems we’ll start seeing authority peaks coming up @pistachio #bwe08

friends in Google reader didn’t exist a year ago, news quality is much higher , building a community of news editors @scobleizer #bwe08

@scobleizer has about 1000 people reporting their Google reader items, 800 items from last night #bwe08

what is the orgasm for journalism? that’s what the industry needs to learn to grow and thrive @pistachio #bwe08

phone is one of the best conversation devices ever made,@scobleizer putting phone # on blog 1 of the best decisions he ever made #bwe08

correct things that are wrong, but don’t work too hard to correct them @pistachio #bwe08

@pistachio, anything negative that people are throwing about you is about them, not about you – wish them peace #bwe08

@coachdeb-the more popular you get, the more it’s [negativity] likely to happen #bwe08

@scobleizer countering negativity, let work speak for itself, engage when people are rational, thicker skin, most people like you #bwe08

@coachdeb asking to how to handle gossip, trolls, nasty people? #bwe08

fundamental paranoia of companies re: twitter/live video slow to change, Not all- @pistachio working with Ford #bwe08

trishussey: Retweet @wiredprworks: fact-checking built into twittter, but what happens when it goes mainstream? #bwe08

@scobleizer wants to add metadata to people in his social network-starting to build his own folders, but can’t share it now #bwe08

fact-checking built into twittter, but what happens when it goes mainstream? #bwe08

@scoblizer showing his friend feed, http://friendfeed.com/scobleizer #bwe08

“journalism” is condition, msm not that objective & not always right, we’re in a good position to reinvent journalism @dsearls #bwe08

@sandiegofire twitter stream adopted by npr in san diego brought joined web=real estate, live web=publishing #bwe08

twittervision shows tweets in real time around the world #bwe08

@scobleizer – opened some new twitter identities to see what it would be like to not have any friends #bwe08

we don’t yet know what people will do once they have these tools @pistachio, #bwe08 we will behave better, will culture change?

@ricksanchezcnn – using twitter on CNN #bwe08

news spreading through participation by others, centralization of news is now gone #bwe08
