Here’s a screenshot of a story that became popular with a whopping 235 Diggs. It was taken the night of January 28, 2008 (approximately 11PM EST): While Digg typically allowed stories to hit the front page within 80-120 votes (the latter being more rare than normal), it’s now requiring almost double the number.

As all conferences I’ve attended, it was a great one, and by far the best part was the smallness of the conference overall which really helped the networking efforts. The Shout Outs Aha, you thought I’d forget about the shout outs with all that conference summary. Now why would I do that?) It takes practice!

When you go to a conference in Manhattan, you probably seek out hotels that you’ve also heard of. Twitter, he says, “became my way of talking with a community of people.&# I personally learned about Roger Smith Hotel at a social media conference and was told that it’s the place to be. Has it been a success?

Digg is now part of social media and will be explained in the final chart.

You have to create content, be part of many communities, and proceed incrementally. Too often we see social media strategies that involve putting photos into Flickr, videos into YouTube or the creation of a Facebook application and then never revisiting the environment to engage with the communities around this content.

And many of us in the social media space are guilty of that particular sin. Thanks for the help. How can I help you?

At conferences, I am often asked something along these lines, “My boss thinks none of our customers are on Facebook, but I think they are. Have you added the ability for email recipients to share content on Twitter, Facebook, Digg and elsewhere? Because there really is no benefit in beating your customers to the punch. What do I do?”
