You have to create content, be part of many communities, and proceed incrementally. Your company needs to be part of that conversation. But, fortunately there are some pretty sweet tools out there to help me find the right people to engage in conversation. That’s not a “wave the magic wand&# scenario.

I needed to differentiate Digg from social media because they actually are part of a distinctive community (and as you know, I’m very passionate about Digg so it really did deserve its own category). I get fixated on one community and ditch the last, yet I still have my profiles on them and they usually get outdated within minutes.

Are your employees in charge of company communities ie: Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter? If yes, then your policy will need to include a section on community management and moderation – when to respond to issues and when to take a step back. Do the majority of your employees have existing social media profiles?

While I never felt that we were in an echo chamber, I think that all attendees would benefit if we had some panel discussions and presentations led by privacy experts or IT security experts – people who, by their very nature, have to take a very conservative approach to social media. For me, the best part of the whole Government 2.0

Not whether that’s the Chief Marketing Officer or the Director of Public Affairs or the Community Relations Lead, but actual names of people.

I’ve worked with clients from across the government who are all seeing social media succeed in helping organizations communicate, collaborate, and share information better than they ever have. Or, should it also be open to other agencies like the FAA or other members of the Intel Community? Where you draw the line? The scope [.]

Don’t shy away from giving your community the information needed to find you elsewhere both online and offline. This method is smart because it helps build interest on another platform and drives conversions directly on their home base. Give them a reason to want to communicate. What if you want to offer 10% off?

Patience is required in building a community, seeing real results with monetization and building traffic. Some people are able to build a community but fail at monetizing their blogs. Some also build traffic but fail to build a community. Anyway, thanks both of you, for your thoughtful conversation on the issue.

We’re not the only ones [enabling such communication] but a lot of people are using our tools, especially in places like Colombia. We’re not trying to build new communities; we’re allowing people to communicate with people they already know. The community can determine if something is being too aggressive.

Premature Calculation The problem with the pet naming approach is that you end up having the “is this working&# conversation when the social media program is already in operation, which forces you to conduct statistical gerrymandering to determine which measures are relevant. You’re done with the success metrics conversation.

Twitter success requires an understanding of the unique rhythms and cadences of the community, and a give first, get later mentality that is a bit counterintuitive at first. The only people who seem to take up the feed now are those tweeps making conversations– almost like a Twitter party without branding it as such.

Using your Twitter feed as a chat room for conversations that are exclusive in nature and not as a broadcast medium. Can we say spam?
