Social Media for the Technologically Challenged

September 27, 2008

I just finished attending Danilo Bogdanovic and Tony Arko’s presentation on Social Media for the Technologically Challenged.  They covered everything from MySpace to LinkedIn to Twitter, then discussed blogging platforms like Typepad and Wordpress.  The question and answer session that followed was fantastic as well.  Clearly, this was a topic that could fill a whole conference, not just one session.

To illustrate Social Media in action, here’s some of the ‘tweets’ that appeared on Twitter during their presentation:

NRVLiving: #VAR08 when starting your online presence, I.e. Blogging, start by keeping your blog private to hide your voice and seed with posts
NRVLiving: #VAR08 blogging allows you to focus on the clients you want to focus on, rather than just try and reach everyone @tonyarko
mattwilkins: “A blog is your voice and will always be different from every other blog out there” according to @tonyarko #VAR08
mattwilkins: “Google has surpassed REALTOR.com as source of finding homes acording to California survey” according to @tonyarko #VAR08
heatherelias: listening to @danilob speak #var08
DrewFristoe: #var08 in social media class. Being taught ny @tonyarko and @danilo
