10 Awesome Twitter Analytics and Visualization ToolsTwitter Tools and Twitter Tips Blog

See on Scoop.itSocial Media, the 21st Century Digital Tool Kit

After researching over a thousand Twitter Tools for the Twitter Tools Book I came across many tools that tried to add value by presenting a different way to visualize or analyze your tweets, the people in your network, and the tweets from the people in your network.

 

Many tools tried to add value and failed.  At least they tried.  The following tools, however, stand out in my mind as exceptional or entertaining and I recommend you check them out if you want to analyze and visualize your activity on Twitter….


Alison Gilbert‘s insight:

Oh good, I love to learn about new valuable tools and apps.

See on Scoop.itAvant-garde Art & Design


the chair of the visual-arts program, Gregory Amenoff, took to the podium to recap some of Byrne’s multi-disciplinary career highlights.


Alison Gilbert‘s insight:

According to Daniel Pink, former Al Gore speech writer, the creatives are going to be in demand. They may not necessarily be in technically creative positions. But their creative skills will put them at a tremendous advantage in the work force.

 

I also think that what David Byrne did by being so negative in his speech, sucks!

See on Scoop.itSocial Media, the 21st Century Digital Tool Kit

If you read through interviews, magazine articles, and stories about Steve Jobs, you’re never going to hear him say, “Here are my branding tips,” or “Here is how you build your brand.” Jobs didn’t operate under a cut-and-dried, connect part-A to part-B mentality.

Three Tips for Effective Content Marketing

See on Scoop.itSocial Media, the 21st Century Digital Tool Kit

Guest blogging is still as effective a tool as any to generate visibility and awareness for your brand website and it’s also a slow, yet efficient method to position your brand in comparison to the competition. However, it’s important to remember that you will want the best content to be uploaded to your very own website. In other words, don’t waste your copywriter’s talents on blog posts for other sites. While these may contain valuable links for your back linking profile and will help boost your writers’ authorship prowess, nothing will generate more of a buzz than good, potentially viral content on your very own site.

 

As all top social media marketing agencies know, nowadays it’s becoming easier than ever to get the ball rolling in terms of virality – and it’s all thanks to social media. It’s almost free and it allows you to target your audience through increasingly refined methods. It’s also an excellent venue for potential client support issues that may arise, departing from a particular piece of content….


Alison Gilbert‘s insight:

All bloggers want to provide relevant value and have their work go viral.
