Lil’ Pile O’ Links – Toolbox
March 31st, 2009 • Related • Filed Under
Here are a few links to tools I have been looking at recently, as well as some interesting posts about other stuff.
On Social Media Monitoring tools (thanks to social media explorer who explains what these do.)
FREE
101 level monitoring
Filtrbox - brand tracking
IceRocket Blog Trends (the best blog search service I've found so far)
Nielsen's Blogpulse
SM2 by Techrigy
There are tons more search and brand tracking tools, these are just a couple worth looking at.
NOT FREE
Scout Labs
Radian6
Cymfony
Scout Labs, in particular, looks really promising and Lindy and I will do a full post on these once we've had a chance to really dig into them.
Monitoring Tools on Twitter
There are more new tools every day, here's just one good post which mentions 8 Twitter analytics tools.
More Twitter stuff
Twibes - now you are a seasoned Twitterer, use this to recommend some of your fave people to follow.
Mailana - very cool visualization of your network. Click to go deeper.
FriendFiltr - a way to really get the scoop on who's following you.
Tagalus - the user-powered hashtag dictionary.
WeFollow - add yourself to this directory.
On Social Media Marketing
Great white paper - The social media marketing industry report - here's the download link.
On PR 2.0
Brian Solis' new book with Deirdre Breakenridge, Putting the Public back in Public Relations is now out. I can't wait for mine to arrive.
On Facebook for Professional Use:
Ten Facebook Tips for Power Users
How to Use the New Business Page Layout
5 Tips for Marketing on Facebook's New Pages
Facebook's redesign - good concept, but not there yet (good summary of the changes and what everyone's pissed about)
And this is not about tools, but Joshua Porter predicts Facebook will go asymmetrical - I totally agree, read the post to find out what we're on about...
On Communities
Online community examples from lots of industries; here are the examples for the nonprofit sector.
And finally, a really nice little post on Ethics by Dave Fleet.
Phew! Thinking this might keep y'all busy for a little while. :)
