It'll take ten seconds, promise. THE HEADLINES ... THE LOWDOWN ... APPLE JUICE ... NEWSBYTES ... UNDER THE GAVEL ... THE HEADLINES ... After Twitter’s damp squib (Squitter?) The quality of the cross-examination varied wildly (“What’s your favourite bourbon?”) - but the exchanges did throw up a few golden nuggets, including an insight into the thinking behind new Twitter service @anywhere; a definitive answer to the question “will Twitter be sold or merged in the next 2 years?” (“No”); and a brief but tantalising insight into the interior landscape of a thirty-something

Many progressive companies are opening up new communication channels and using tools such as Twitter for engagement with their customer base. Twitter: Reputation Management in Social Networks (18)
Speaking 2009 (1)
...Tags: I’ve been asked to speak in Melbourne on April 15th (evening) about the impact of social media, online communities, social networks and call centres. As you probably know, I believe that while marketing and PR want social networks to be about them and their needs, the customer usually has

Let’s be clear, the true value of this conference may not even be the official talks and panels any more (you can find most of this stuff on Slideshare), but rather the opportunity to meet all the people you’ve been chatting with on Twitter and through your blog over the preceding 12 months. The Kingdom of Awesome is real – on Twitter, Foursquare and within the blogosphere, and in Austin at SXSW it becomes physically real, like a Virtual World taking over a physical space. We were milling about at @LenKendall ’s @the3six5 meetup at The Ginger Man here at SXSW last night when Greg Christman, aka @reelspit , came over to say hello.

Number of Australian Twitter users for June 2009 was 800,000, according to ComScore.
Facebook in particular demonstrated significant growth; Twitter benefited from sudden mainstream popularity in 2009. Windows Live Profile chalked up close to two million visitors, but it was Twitter that grew the most, rising to 800,000 visitors in June — up from 13,000 last year. Found this over at MarketingCharts :
Over 70% of Australian internet users visited a social networking site in June, a 29% rise from the same time last year, reports comScore.

Twitter has quickly become the must-have channel for conference back-chat. Twitter is also a great way to attend a conference without actually being there – just follow a conference hashtag (e.g. #smib09 But watch out Twitter. It’s worth pointing out that Twitter Image courtesy of Shutterstock
Reading what other people tweet during a speech provides an extra dimension as you get a sense of what the audience is thinking.

(nearly 100) Here’s a list of journalists from Australian (mostly mainstream, some New Zealanders) media who have embraced, indeed are head over heels, in love with Twitter. Trevor Cook put a dozen Australian Journalists on Twitter together. Here is a little formula I just cooked up called the Tweet-GQ (Tweet Gary Quotient) that works out a Twitter rating. Let’s sit here and watch them. Quis custodiet ipsos custodes . Who watches the watchers themselves? By the way, the first social networking book I ever read was The Republic by Plato, mashing’up and

When I saw this video on the free technology for teachers blog with about the use of twitter for educators I was struck by the way they see twitter as THE only tool for educators. How is twitter used by the panel? They use twitter to connect with students, parents and other stakeholders, to share resources for teachers and to have tweetpolls and conversations. I'm working with a learning network in education using a sharepoint platform. It's hard to move from face-to-face meeting to online interaction (for a number of reasons and we're writing a whole paper about

The folks over at BrandonHall, the learning folks who blog lots of interesting links, pointed out a value of Twitter that not all of us may have seen yet. Twitter as a search engine. The question always comes up “why would we be interested in something like Twitter. This was interesting to me because I’m co-leading a short online workshop introducing social media in a global international development network. One application I try to show is Twitter as social listening.

When I was thinking of a title for a session on Twitter at the Enterprise 2.0 People have turned their Twitter avatars green in support of the protests. Type "#Iranelection" in the Twitter search bar and endless tweets come up. Just since I started writing this post, 846 more tweets have come up with the same hash conference next week here in Boston, I, of course, had no idea what would transpire in Iran a few months hence. But here we are, witnessing the power of 140 characters, the energy that can be released with the greatest economy of writing.

In the wake of a truly ghastly series of articles on Twitter , I am beginning to think that journalists will never write well on any thing that involves online communities or social media.
Here’s what journalist Andy Pemberton of the Times Online learned via his informants about the stereotypical twitter user:
“The clinical psychologist Oliver James has his reservations. “Twittering Perhaps the problem is this simple: They just don’t have the time to spend on participating in these communities which a thorough understanding of these phenomena require. You
