| Why I Like Sharing Things on Google Buzz Posted: 18 Mar 2010 11:58 AM PDT This content is from: eGrace Creative I recently wrote an article for bloggers about whether or not we can afford to ignore Google Buzz. Since writing that article shortly after Buzz’s public release, I’ve really come to value certain aspects of it as a sharing platform.
When you “tweet” a link, you’re just throwing a link out there, but Buzz (along with Facebook as a sharing platform and a few others) allows you to do a little something extra – share it with a note. For example, in my screenshot above, Michael Hyatt wanted to share a Kindle-related article. Michael had a couple of options for how to share it on Buzz, but one way is to use the Note in Reader browser bookmarklet. Not only is this easy, but there are also two things I really like about this kind of sharing. One is the personal branding – it’s shared by Michael with his photo there. Second is the note Michael made about it. Sharing a link is easy, but giving your opinion on it, or at least telling me why I should read, is far more powerful. This is what content-sharing should really look like. Share and Enjoy:                      |
| Get a Custom Twitter Background Design from IDScapes Posted: 17 Mar 2010 07:55 PM PDT This content is from: eGrace Creative A brand is not a logo. It’s not a style guide or a brochure. A brand is the story that gets told about a person, product or organization. You can’t always control your brand, but you can try, and Twitter just happens to offer an opportunity to do so that not every social network offers.
I have just launched IDScapes.com to help people extend their brand’s identity to one of the most popular social marketing platforms on the web.
$125 gets any brand a sweetly designed background, avatar, and recommended color settings for Twitter. Obviously a custom-designed logo won’t be included at that price. It’s more a matter of finding at least one service I can offer at a set price and in turn, can offer affiliates an opportunity to earn a commission by referring people to the site via affiliate links. Please check it out and if you think it’s worthy, help me spread the word! Share and Enjoy: |
