Yahoo Launches New Social Sentiment Slider. It’s not enough to ask consumers to talk about your brand, Yahoo says. If you want to get people really engaged, invite them to weigh in on relevant content. That’s the thinking behind the company’s latest social feature called the Social Sentiment Slider, which launched today. Placed directly beneath Yahoo stories, the sponsorable widget asks a question related to the article and lets readers register their opinions by sliding their cursors across an interactive scale. For example, after a story about the future of the iPod, the Sentiment Slider might ask, “Is the iPod going the way of the dinosaur?” Readers can respond on a scale that runs from “No one needs an iPod” to “It will always be relevant.”
“It’s a new approach to social,” said Patrick Albano, Yahoo’s vice president of social, mobile, and innovation. Jaguar has signed on as a launch sponsor, but he said three other brands will be announced soon. Protecting Your Online Reputation: 4 Things You Need to Know.

YouTube Announces Addition of Channels in Late Friday Night Blog Post. After months of speculation with almost no official confirmation, YouTube has finally announced its long-awaited channel strategy in a post to the company’s blog late Friday evening. The announcement falls in line with what had previously been reported in the press, namely that YouTube will be expanding its lineup of channels to include new offerings from a variety of partners, including well-known personalities and brands in the Hollywood, music, news, and sports worlds. “These channels will have something for everyone, whether you’re a mom, a comedy fan, a sports nut, a music lover, or a pop-culture maven,” YouTube’s global head of content partnerships Robert Kyncl said in the post. Under the new system, content creators—like Vice Media or the video game lifestyle network Machinima, for example—will have a dedicated channel on the site that they will control, continually updating it with video content.
YouTube, for its part, will sell ads against that video inventory. 5 Best Practices for Financial Institutions on Facebook. Banks, often held back by industry regulations, are rarely considered innovative when it comes to social media. But Facebook is the perfect place for financial institutions to loosen their neckties, roll up their sleeves and show some personality. The Facebook community wants to connect on a personal level, rather than learn about policy updates. This may sound like a challenging feat for those accustomed to banks' traditional platforms of communication. To explain the transition, we've put together five dynamic ways for financial institutions to engage with the Facebook community. If you're involved in a financial institution's marketing plan and unsure of what your Facebook presence should like — or even if you should have a Facebook presence at all — take a look at these best practices. 1.
Facebook — and social media in general — is all about connecting with people. "Banks aren't really the most trusted institutions right now," says Frank Eliason, Citi's SVP of social media. 2. 3. 4. The social media ROI: It's not about immediate results. Remember a week or two ago when I told everyone to invite me to join your mafia in Crime City on Google+ Games because I just loved it so, so much? Yeah. Stop that. There’s no way for me to individually mute the other games, so people are inviting me to a bunch of crap I don’t even play — cough, CityVille, cough.
This inevitably means that the invites I actually want to respond to get lost within the floods of “so-and-so has sent you a message”, which means that there are way too many actual notifications to individually sort through. This on top of several other minor issues — Phew! It would be a total headache if not for the awesome experience I’ve been having with Google+’s amazing staff. I know. Let’s look at this from the perspective of a newer user, however, who might see issues like this as a bigger problem.
The details are surprisingly important. Wheeler also provided a description that simply does not have as much power when paraphrased or summarized, so I’ll leave it for you here. No, Facebook Is Not Ruining Your Grades [STUDY] Pearltrees. Increasing Your Klout Score. If you're trying to build your own personal brand or business brand online, increasing your Klout score could be beneficial. Klout.com is a popular social scoring website that looks at your current social media accounts and your activity on them to measure your social influence. A score between 1 and 100 is assigned to you, which represents your Klout score and overall social impact online.
The higher your Klout score ranks, the more you influence other people who are part of your online community. Your Klout score measures how many people you influence, by how much you influence them and how influential those people become when they react to social media activity. In other words, your score measures your ability to drive action online. That action could be a few "Likes" you receive on a video you posted on Facebook, a retweet on Twitter or a comment left on a link to an article you posted on LinkedIn.
Why Should You Try to Increase Your Klout Score? Three Main Klout Scores: An Overview. Are You Influential? The Odd Need for Social Measurement - Technorati Blogging. In another decade, Jimi Hendrix wailed, “Are you experienced?” Today the social media cry is, “Are you influential? " Recently one of my colleagues, fresh from a conference, asked enthusiastically if I were using Klout. Actually, no, (not yet?) , but I was certainly familiar with the growing trend to seek social media validity. I find it interesting that we equate influence with numbers and not with results. To me, a teacher is influential because he/she shapes a life. Don’t get me wrong – I understand the marketing logic. A blog on L + E admirably explores the pros and cons of social influence measurement.
As consumers, the need seems more obvious. Apple's "Let's Talk iPhone" Event, LIVE - John Paczkowski - Mobile. More than 15 months after it launched the iPhone 4 at WWDC 2010, Apple is finally ready to unveil its successor. Later this morning, the company will debut its latest iPhone, the fifth in the handset’s history. Though it’s not precisely clear what form it will take, most observers expect the fifth-generation iPhone to boast a dual-core A5 processor, one gigabyte of RAM, an improved camera, a dual-band GSM/CDMA chip that will transform it into a so-called “world phone” that can support multiple wireless network standards, and a rumored virtual personal assistant that arose out of Apple’s 2010 acquisition of Siri.
Beyond that, we’re likely to hear more about iCloud (which may steal the show) and its promise of a simple, seamless sync, iOS 5 and its nearly 200 new features, and perhaps an update or two to the company’s long-running iPod line. We’ll also get to watch newly installed CEO Tim Cook make his first big product introduction, an event that may well set the tone for his new role. #NewhouseSM6.
