Dina Mehta: Social Tools Social NetworksSocial Tools and Social Media - Conversations with DinaUser-Generated Content - Just more 'Us vs Them'- June 29, 2007 Bloggy thought three. Something I was mulling over for a while, even shared in a completely inarticulate manner with Rajesh yesterday, who by the way awarded me with the Thinking Blogger Award. He shared with me some links that report on the recent IAMAI Web2.0 conference, with the comment - "am getting a bit restless with marketers"! Then I got a call from a journalist, who wanted to discuss 'unconferences' - and I took off on her a little and told her how I dislike the term - any..http://radio.weblogs.com/0121664/categories/socialSoftwareSocialNetworks/2007/06/29.html#a... Does everything have to be 'searchable'- June 29, 2007 Bloggy thought two. It's not worth it, if it's not searchable. Robert Scoble and Steve Rubel seem to feel so. Am actually feeling the contrary only because of my recent experiences with Facebook and Twitter. The other day, I was chatting with a young friend who is 18, and he told me a few things around Facebook. His dashboard and homepage is Facebook - all his social interactions happen around it, along with a few IM clients. He doesn't really use email very much. And most pertinent to...http://radio.weblogs.com/0121664/categories/socialSoftwareSocialNetworks/2007/06/29.html#a... Does your company have a social media strategy- June 29, 2007 I was driving back from a meeting when I had a few bloggy thoughts ... long drives in traffic and beating rain tend to do that to me! It was a good meeting - regular (I actually said that!!!) qualitative research project among IT students and professionals to understand motivations that drive them to join certain sorts of organizations in a highly competitive field, to figure out a strategy to draw them to my Client's organization. As we were discussing the research, I suddenly felt - wow -..http://radio.weblogs.com/0121664/categories/socialSoftwareSocialNetworks/2007/06/29.html#a...

Way to go Sify!- June 9, 2007 Refuses to block Orkut under political pressure!http://radio.weblogs.com/0121664/categories/socialSoftwareSocialNetworks/2007/06/09.html#a... I got My Facebook!- June 9, 2007 The New York Times had similar thoughts. Check out this really neat article there on how a daughter is pissed off because her mum gets a Facebook!"But after receiving a follow-up threat from my daughter ("unfriend paige right now. im serious. i dont care if they request you. say no. i will be soo mad if you dont unfriend paige right now. actually"), I started worrying that allowing parents in would backfire on Facebook."While I wonder about how the younger generation will react as more of us...http://radio.weblogs.com/0121664/categories/socialSoftwareSocialNetworks/2007/06/09.html#a... Google has my past - and my future- June 4, 2007 Google is not merely moving towards "owning" the internet, its also beginning to "own" me.I had a friend over this weekend, and I was setting up a blog for her on Blogger. I had to sign out of my Blogger account to set her up. During the process, I wanted to check my mail, and clicked on my Gmail tab in my browser - and I was shocked to see that it opened up her Gmail account instead. Should have expected it - its logical - but it disturbed me. It's convenient, it's quick - but I want the...http://radio.weblogs.com/0121664/categories/socialSoftwareSocialNetworks/2007/06/04.html#a... |
