Simply Zesty’s social media camp

with one comment

Went to simply zesty’s wintercamp on Wednesday – whirlwind tour of how to use social media in businesss from Facebook,Google and more. Full agenda here and Twitter running commentary #szcamp.

It’s all been recorded here on simply zesty’s website. Simply Zesty are a great example for how to use social media.

Things that stood out for me from the meeting were:

Facebook’s priority is to keep their network as a set of trusted friends
UK is better on web content than Ireland – hmmm – and we thought we were the island of saints and scholars

Watch what’s happening in the UK and you’ll see it 3 years later in Ireland
Google’s aim is to get people on to the web as fast as possible so they can sell more advertising
12seconds – video Twitter – record a 12 second video and vweet it

Facebook passed 350 million worldwide  - will it level off before every online person is on facebook?
Iphoto for organising photos on desktop and post to facebook
Urbanspoon find out what your friends have said about any topic
Changing  name of your Facebook page?  - difficult but possible
Facebook’s Privacy policy  changed this week – you will have more granular control of photos
Social search from google is based on your google profile
Google labs has information on different search algorithms
80 reports available in Google analytics – worth checking them all
