- Working on Content Sharing Survey Results
My survey on web content sharing collected around 450 responses and now I’m working on the task of decoding the type-in answers and calculating the results.
I asked the question on twitter, but I’d also like to ask it here, what formats would everyone like to see the results in? I’ve already had suggestions of: spreadsheet […]
- Link Attraction Factors: Report, Tools, API and Plugin
A few weeks ago I published my Link Attraction Factors report over on Read/WriteWeb and the response was awesome. I also made two tools: a keyword checking tool and a title checking tool.
The keyword checking tool
Enter a keyword and the tool will return data on popular stories on Digg that mentioned that keyword. The […]
- Guest Post About Twitter on ReadWriteWeb
Yep, more guest posts, this time I wrote a post on ReadWriteWeb about how to use Twitter to increase your social media profile’s “authority”. Anthony over at Social Times added a couple more tips to my list.
- Another Guest Post
Yep, thats right, I’ve done yet another guest post. This time its over at Jonathan Bailey’s seminal PlagiarismToday blog and its about the futility of resisting communal recreation, and the value in embracing it.
- New Server and Design Update

- Some Great Viral anti-Hummer Ads
There’s a new book out called unmarketable, and its about the evils of corporate advertising’s takeover of the underground, but sometimes, the underground fights back, as is the case with unpopular products. And nothing is a lighting rod for anti-marketing quite like the hummer, here are a few of my favorites, and I’d love to […]
- Big Seed Viral Marketing
This is a little old, but I think it bears re-examining.
Viral marketing campaigns, like real viruses have what is called a reproduction or transmission rate. That is what is the average number of times a person will pass on a specific message. If the average person who sees your viral creative shows it to one […]
- Alison Has a Blog
Alison, who I work with on sweet social marketing at the dayjob, has started a blog.
Her first post (about sexist marketing) is awesome (and she mentions me) so head over, check it out and leave a comment.
- Internal Corporate Blogging
From Hugh Macleod’s Hughtrain:
And yes, this works with internal blogs as well, poking holes in the membranes that seperate people within a corporate culture; aligning “the conversation” internally etc.
