Applied Social [Media] Magic #Book - Instagram

This article was planned to be about G+ and recently looks like even Google doesn't know what's it about. So I'm delaying G+ article until it comes out and write the article about Instagram that looks like all clear with :)

[#socialmedia] Pinterest #article

I've finally get back to articles on #socialmedia and here comes Pinterest

Looks like timeout I've made with writing articles for my book is finally long enough and #socialmedia scope has significantly evolved.

Personal Branding #book #socialmedia #SMM

[UPDATED #1] Looks still useful and I see that articles definitely needed cleanup, updates and much more detailed info on the topic. A bit weird and anyway %) Going to work on it ‪#‎socialmedia‬

Newer version of the article is avail here on LinkedIn ;)

[UPDATED #5][#socialmedia] Twitter on Practice #article

Looks like my previous article [#socialmedia] Twitter #article appeared a kind of overview, a sneak peak not a kind of practical how to.

Here comes the second article with applied case on our new cooking portal project getitcooked.com and it's promotion naturally with Twitter too. This article is going to be the first of the series of articles about what kind of social magic we do service by service and how it can help our friends, collaborators and customers for sure.

[updated #4] Applied Social [Media] Magic #Book - Work Title, Table of Contents and Several Articles

I'm keep on writing my book, no time at all and I'm keep on trying to manage properly with all tasks.

Work title is Applied Social [Media] Magic. Title is from my presentation at #flashgamm conference, still open for discussion ^) 

Work goes slow and anyway I'm trying to write a post/chapter at least once a week. Here comes Table of Contents and Several Articles, also open to add, change and remove info:

[#socialmedia][updated #4] Empire Avenue #article

I've got this the article in a queue for several month already and writing it for several month too. Today Mozilla crashed I've lost a part of the article and then by deleting the draft deleted the original post %) So I have to and will finish it today :) ~50 pluses lost, could You please support it once again ;)

[#socialmedia] Twitter Short Overview #article

Twitter was my first love with #socialmedia. It shown me the potential and kept the place of the favourite #socialmedia service for 3 years.

[socialmedia] Klout #article

Looks like it's blogger day for me today. Here comes one more article scheduled 2-3 weeks ago.

It's going to be one more experiment with article format. Let's split it to theoretic part and practical howto. 

Theory
Clout may refer to political or social power. In social science and politics, power is the ability to influence the behavior of people according to Wikipedia.

Applied Social [Media] Magic #Book - SocialBro

 

I was on vacations for 2 weeks and was cleaning up my work for 2+ weeks, so find some time for the next chapter only today.

Here is draft table of contents of a my #book draftly named Applied Social [Media] Magic still considering Applied Social Magic and Social Media Magic titles. Today's topic is number 20 - SocialBro.

I'm affiliate so don't be surprised with a link.

I don't remember how I found the app and desired to try app with version 0.31 or 0.39 beta but did it and increased followers count in a Year from 1500 to 11000.

It was Air app for a desktop first then it was Chrome app and now it work in browser. Also first it was free for beta testers and then became paid. I used free version as long as possible but larger communities require faster and faster connection and synchronizations became slower and slower. With half price for a first 3 month I've went Pro.

I don't know current limitations of a free version, have to look and I think it's quite enough to start.

So what is SocialBro and even more interesting question is what is for?

HootSuite Pro 1st month impressions

I've promised to share my impressions of HootSuite Pro use. Here it comes after one month.

Overall impression is very good:

 1.  I spend 3 minutes to post my daily featured game all over #socialmedia: #Facebook page, group and personal profile, two #twiiter @real7a, @eplusgames, G+ page and LinkedIn personal profile in 30 second with Hootlet now instead of 3-5 minutes.

Applied Social Magic

Sharing my presentation at FlashGAMM as was announced.

«Applied Social Magic» — presentation and video for FlashGAMM #7 meeting.

Two years ago Twitter was regarded an entertainment and a time-killer. A year later commercial games on Twitter and Facebook became quite habitual and spread. The presentation gives the overview of various social media mechanisms – Stumbleupon, Reddit, Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, Digg, Blogspot, official and unspoken rules of societies, applications and services, as well as in-developed social media tools. The speaker will share practical skills, methods, results and statistics. A part of this information is formalizable, and a part seems pure magic.

I'm going to write short review article about FlashGAMM and share my impressions tomorrow. In short: It was just great. Thanks!

Digg button and Twitter repost from Facebook fixed
