My take on Google’s Opensocial
OK; the last few days have been exciting and intense in my personal life, and because of that I may be the last person in the world to comment on Google’s OpenSocial announcements… which is lovely because I can now read through and distill many others J
So here notes from my reading:

Are you paying attention? (To Social Media?)
It has been a long and good weekend; and it promises to be an exciting week. So allow me to resort to a “Blog Post Mashup” style

Comments on: “The Future Of Competition; co-creating unique value with customers”
Comments on: “The Future Of Competition; co-creating unique value with customers” by C.K. Prahalad and Venkat Ramaswamy
I am biased.. I love the Social Networking / CRM convergence space and because of that it is very appealing to me how this books takes farther and deeper (with what some may call excruciating detail and complexity) ide

Beyond the Monetization of the Social Network
I am recycling bits here; but this article: “Social Capitalism - the Monetization of the Social Network” brought back this topic to my memory:
These days community and monetiz

The CRM 2.0 Wiki
I recently (as in hours) began contributing to the CRM 2.0 Wiki; I am really excited to find a group of people that see (as I do) the connection between Social Networking and CRM and the incredible implications it brings in both the platform and business strategy for CRM; from the home page:

The scarcest resource in the social media industry… is your company fighting itself for it?
I found the “Leading You: Where Is Your Attention?” article by Susanne Biro (Bluepoint Leadership Development) extremely interesting and thought provoking in several ways; but (as it is the key objective of this blog) let’s keep it to social media /online communities

Online Communities / Social Networking and CRM
There are a number of reasons why companies want to do community; some see it as a way to bring down support costs, others (smarter) see it as that plus a way to obtain feedback on products, yet others (smartest) see it as all of the above plus a way to allow a web of support and sense of belonging develop among their customers and translate that into loyalty; exhausting this topic would require a book..

Basic Community “Experience Blocks”
I believe all community experiences are created using the same basic community “experience blocks”; here a crack at identifying four of the most basic ones and show to examples of of those:

Wild idea: collaboration and partnership as the pillars of success for an online services company?
Deviating a little bit from my normal area of focus (hey; I think I am entitled to some brain candy once in a while)...
What about the concept of an online services company founded and guided on the principles of collaboration and partnership? A company that would first look to leverage existing capabilities (i.e. tagging from

In Social Media; is gray equivalent to static?
“The graying of the web” http://www.news.com/The+graying+of+the+Web/2100-1024_3-6207438.html?tag=st.num
I found a couple of the assumptions in this article puzzling…… I am purposely restraining myself from sayi

To Reach the Pinnacle of the Loyalty Ladder, You Must Have Advocates (By Paul Greenberg)
This is a great article; it is significant (in my opinion) that mainstream SMEs are advocating now the ideas we have heard from grassroots for a long time. Three key points I want to highlight out of this one:

Multifaceted nature of online communities / social networks
I was discussing this on email with a newly found friend; and I thought about sharing it broadly:
I propose that online communities are multifaceted and that trying to look at them from one of those dimensions/perspectives in isolation from other others is a mistake. Well implemented and managed an online community / social network will help you

The incompatibility of fiefdoms and social / community marketing
If you have followed my prior posts you know I work for a large company; and like many other large companies there are many groups, many products/technologies that, to put it bluntly, touch the customer without too much coordination.
That was bad in the old ways of marketing, there was waste (duplicated messages) and confusion (conflicting messa

By Target Audience? By Product/Service?
As I get closer and closer to launch the initial efforts for the community I am working on I have began wondering/challenging my own thinking about it (I am not about to stop; but I do like to challenge myself as I go). Should a community like this really be mostly centered about a product/service, as I am about to do and so many other companies have done, or should it be centered around the target audience at large regardles

My apologies…. To myself and any other that may be reading out there; how easy it is to postpone what you like and want for what you need. .. and how sad
