For my final year project at Uni I am thinking of creating a crowdsourcing website (for software testers), however I’m not sure on how I would go about this, nor how much work would be involved. Any ideas?

My friend Travis just sent this idea to me and I wanted to post it here so I don’t lose it:

I think you should do a blog about how poor leadership as a cause of loss and use the bears as a metaphor.

A friend of mine emailed an idea to me and I don’t want to forget it, so I’m posting it here.

“Why is it that during tough economic times, most companies reduce marketing budgets? If marketing is of real value to a company and if marketing works for that company, wouldn’t you increase spending in tough times?”

Gini How about a blog on how to tell your story and still hold their interest all while being a good listener. Some people just go on way to long about themselves just to be the one doing all the talking.

Anything you write about is worth reading, yes I am sucking up.
Have a great day and stay healthy.

Companies who are trying to understand/implement social media take steps to that end because someone more conversant in SM has suggested they do so, but often times the company itself doesn’t understand the ‘why’ behind the ‘what’.

As communication has evolved (grunting to talking to postal mail to telephone to pagers to cell phones to email to Facebook to Twitter) everything about the dialog changed – the people, the context, what they communicate and why. Perhaps a segment on how the conversations are different now versus five or ten years ago would offer companies a peek at the foundation of the ‘why’ behind the ‘what’.

I’m with a few of the other of your “Tweeps”…you could write about how Social Media has helped turn burgeoning writers into online favourites and where writer’s block is concerned helped to break it free through posts, comments and shared links (flannel PJ’s in tow).

I’ll tell you what I do with writer’s block…look at blogs such as F.A.D.S. and see what I can run with – so thank you for helping me with mine. Hope that helps BFF. Andy

I have been struggling as late to figure out the correct balance of personal and corporate speak as I tweet for Kuru Footwear. My thought is that the more you talk to people as a person you will become a sphere of influence that attracts people that like what you tweet about and there will be a by-product is then they will listen to your product pitch as well. But where is going to far towards to personal stuff that maybe should move to your personal twitter account or blog? I read this blog today and thought it had some good things to say: http://www.convinceandconvert.com/social-media-marketing/how-to-balance-your-personal-and-professional-lives/

What is your thoughts, I think you have done a good job of tweeting personal and business, but it is also your brand and your company, what about when you are working for someone else? Especially if later on you plan on handing over the reins to someone else, your personality and brand you have created can not be replicated.
