Understanding the Importance of Facebook for Marketers

There he is! No, he’s over there. He’s in your RSS feeder, links inside others’ blogs, on UStream.TV, in Hong Kong in Silicon Valley…he’s everywhere, but now working at Forrester Research. Jeremiah Owyang is showing and sharing how we can all connect and communicate better. Call it strategic, I call it smart. If you like interesting people and are interested in people, social media is for you.

Fade Into You — Mesmerizing Mazzy Star Flashback on Facebook

When I can, I try blogging about things I’m learning or trying to understand…but I keep falling deeper into Facebook!  I’m not the only one (thanks Jeremiah/Shel for the data) having this kind of affair.  This time I fell back to my college music days and found a wonderful collection of music (thanks to the iLike application) and videos from one of my favorite tripadelic bands, Mazzy Star.  YouTube is fun, but Facebook pulls YouTube and thousands of other killer online services together into areas that you control and share with others as you please.

There are tons of great groups to join and learn from.  Get that Facebook account open and join the huge Intel Network and groups for Intel Software Network team and the Intel Developer Forum.  I just wish we could upload and embed a video player so we could offer some fresh eye candy during IDF.

Facebook is a place for watching, learning, sharing, connecting, reviving and energizing your taste, aims and personality.  For business professionals, here’s insight from Jeremiah Owyang.  There are some things to be aware of, especially for parents — see this story about a friend of mine.

Back to Mazzy Star  — wow!  I got to catch up with some of my favorite tunes, sure, but it’s the new (old) songs and videos that mesmerized me.  I’ve never seen before.  It was even cool to see how people created their own videos using Mazzy Star music beds.Two more for an encore…

Brian Oberkirch, Small Good Thing

This is one from Jeremiah Owyang that I gotta check out.

Pluck Adds Social Media & Feeds to Corporate Website

This can be a way to bring to the corporate pressroom feeds of blogs and media you follow. Adding widgets to corporate Web sites can help bring your site to life, and you can alter the content to meet calendar events or company happenings. By having a feed like this in a pressroom, it shows what and who is of interest to the company and it can be a forcing function that gets company storytellers or experts to chime in whenever they see incorrect information pop up on a feed.

You Stream, I Stream, We All Stream with Ustream.tv

PodTech’s Eddie Codel gets the scoop from the buzzworthy Ustream guru. JustinTV and Jeremiah Owyang are probably the two biggest champions of Ustream. I’m hoping we can do something with them at the upcoming Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco this September.

Yahoo’s CMO on Web 2.0 Social Media Marketing

On the day Yahoo! announced earnings that were not well received, this is a timely and cool interview timed to a very cool event happening this week in P-Town (Portland), where my pals Jeremiah Owyang from PodTech and Intel buddies Bryan Rhoads and Josh Bancroft will be. Hope they’re enjoyin’!!

iPhone Phenom in Palo Alto — Jeremiah’s Video Walk & Talk

I hear the Doors’ Jim Morrison singing:  Ride the snake…  This is one doozy of a handycam take on the crazy line of people waiting to get their hands on the latest rock start — the Apple iPhone.  Here’s Jeremiah Owyang’s MOS — was there an end to that line?

Intel Deep Inside Second Life — Get Yo Jetpack On!!

Following up on an earlier post, after the previews and opening of Intel’s latest build out in Second Life.  This may be one of the very first places inside Second Life that lets you go underground.  One thing’s for sure — getting an Intel jet pack sounds as cool as what got me first interested in Second Life last year:  the guy who sold vending machines for a small cut of the action and space to sell his special zoomer rollerskates!

Jeremiah Owyang got his jetpack on and started a very good discussion on his blog.  Here something from Mad Young Thing and from Millions of Us, who helped Introduce Intel to Second Life in October 2006 and continues.
