iJustine / Justine Ezarik – Win a computer from pcjustine

As some of you know I’ve been involved in a fun project with Intel for two years. It’s called the “Intel Insiders”. It consists of a bunch of people who are very involved in the social media space and we help Intel to better connect with online audiences who are interested in technology. In the past I’ve participated in a bunch of events including last year at CES and some fun projects like the mobile manners campaign.

I’m very proud to be involved in this great group! They recently were named by the Society for New Communication Research as the Influencer Relations program of the year which is really exciting! You can read more about it here in this blog post.

I’m amazed at the how creative and spunky iJustine is, and here she creates a video for my team at Intel. She’s been a great Intel Insider, especially her help with our fun Mobile Manners campaign this summer.

Inside Scoop @ Intel · A Father’s Favorite Apps and Online Services

Inspired by a Rocketboom Tech segment “11 Useful Web Apps” (video here), I thought it was time to stop, reflect and pay homage to the key applications and services helping me get the most out of the Internet. These apps help me be super productive, connect to important sources of information and they allow me to be mobile so I can devote myself to family, work and life when and where I’m needed most. These are the applications and services I use, ones that fit my personality and needs. Most are free, and some offer premium services if you pay a subscription.

Beet-TV Takes Time to Hear My Take on Video

In November, I got to join an interesting panel at the Online Video Platform Summit, where we talked about strategies for using of video as a communication vehicle.

BeetTV was kind enough to devote time to meet up with me and hear how I’ve been helping Intel’s Global Communications Group evolve its use of video.  Here’s the post from BeetTV:

SAN JOSE, CA — Some of most innovative uses of online video have been pioneered by technology companies, notably Microsoft’s Channel 9, the videoblog for customers and developers.

Sun Microsystems has been using video for some time. One of the latest entrants into corporate use of video is the new Adobe.TV

Intel has been using online video as core communications tool for its many constituents . For a chat about the importance of online video within corporations, we spoke with Ken Kaplan, Broadcast and New Media Manager, Intel Global Communications Group.

We caught up with Ken recently in San Jose at the Streaming Media West show.

We’ve published some of the Intel videos here.

Andy Plesser, Executive Producer.

Is your company effectively using Twitter?

Tips from ObjectiveMarketer founder Amita Paul:

Instead of jumping into execution, if companies adopt the simple framework of Plan -> Execute -> Learn -> Optimize, then not only can effectiveness be measured, but the knowledge gathered throughout the process can also be used for repeatable success.
