I’ve been thinking lately about why I got involved in social media. But as I pondered this connection, I realized that there was a portion of the advertising world that shared a lot of elements with social media – infomercials. The same is true in social media. But, I’m not.

However, a lot of people making that news have created expectations and beliefs about social media that aren’t true. Social Media is Inexpensive False. As Charlene Li said recently, social media trades media cost for labor cost. Social Media is Fast False. Absolutely.

To point out bloggers and companies and resources and people that don’t get the attention that I do here at C&C. I’ll also be starting a new series (hopefully we can make it regular) where I jump on Facebook and answer your questions about social media and content marketing live via streaming video (using VPype or UStream).

Using Digg as an instrument to get Digg’s attention has never clearly had an impact until last week’s “revolt,&# and the only reason why it had an impact then was because it was done off Digg’s site (in this case, Ustream ) and had plenty of press people standing behind it. Digg is not the government.

Have you ever felt a personal connection with a blogger who you’ve never met and have no real reason to feel connection with? I almost end up feeling that the blogger is my friend, even though I’ve never actually had personal contact with them. Using social media. Multi-media.

Last week I ran an impromptu Ustream chat session with my Twitter followers on the theme of Blogger Productivity (to celebrate the launch of Blog Wise ). Bloggers would freely link up to other posts in their niche, quite often sharing a list of links with a few added thoughts on each. It’s a question I hear quite a bit.

Have you ever seen a tweet from Darren that says “Come over to Ustream andlet’s have a chat”? Dad had spent the last nine months listening to me banging on about blogging and social media, connecting through stories, and making money online. How Good Bloggers Stand out in the Crowd. So I had a beer with a ProBlogger!

The blogger gets quality content. For others, it may be a uStream or an interview. I have three main ways I meet people: If a social media friend will be in the same city as you, casually offer to meetup. People still thank me for mentioning the in the 30 Bloggers To Watch post. This doesn’t have to be a bad thing.

Free tools range from hosted blog platforms like WordPress.com and Blogger through to a myriad of plugins and themes around the web that can make blogging a breeze. I bit the bullet early in my blogging and did this first by paying for my own hosting and moving from Blogger to Movable Type (and later to WordPress.org).

I have returned from Blog World Expo 2010 with new friends, 30 pages of notes, tons of pictures, two magazines, three books, a blank journal, a nice stack of business cards, four buttons, stickers, a yo-yo, and, most importantly, an elevated enthusiasm for the world of blogging and social media. It is simply a vehicle.

As bloggers – what can we learn from this culture of welcome? Interacting with readers in a personal way on Twitter, Facebook, Ustream or other social media. People don’t go online simply get information any more – they want to belong. Responding to comment. The list could go on.
