Has Facebook's Reign Come And Gone Already?
A smart friend of mine, a longtime industry veteran, once shared with me an interesting observation about the companies that dominate the computing industry. His idea was that there's always a top dog, a company that Bigfoots over everybody else, instills fears in rivals, attracts the best talent and so on -- but that with each turn of the wheel, each new ruler's reign gets shorter and shorter. So: first came IBM, which ruled for 25 to 30 years, then Microsoft, which ruled for 12 to 15, then Google for six to eight years, and now Facebook, whose reign arguably began in 2010, when its traffic surged past Google's and it bullied Zynga, its biggest partner , into accepting Facebook Credits.How To Filter The Social Web On Your Mobile

The Google Plus 50
If you’re curious about Google+ , the new social network platform from Google, you’re not alone. I’ve logged several hours already on the platform, experimenting, testing, and observing. It sparks my attention from several angles: marketing, technology, community, media, mobile, advertising, and more. To that end, I wrote down 50 things to think about with regards to Google+, in no particular order: The purpose of this list is to get you thinking about a bunch of different possibilities.
The Biggest Secret of Social Media
Here’s the biggest secret of social media: if you don’t like people very much, it won’t work very well. I did an interview for a magazine recently, where the first (not the second or subsequent question) was how one might automate all their social media usage and save time. Can you imagine? The very first question, rewritten by me, would have read: “How does one take this very human medium and robotize it the way we’ve done that with all the other communications methods in our life?” I’m not some kind of kumbaya, let’s-hug-the-whales guy, but at the same time, if you’re thinking that social media’s going to bring prosperity to your business, and yet your first thoughts are on how to mechanize it, you might be looking at the wrong tool.5 Trends Affecting How We Connect Through Social Media
Yuli Ziv is the founder & CEO of Style Coalition , a network of independent online publishers in the fashion and lifestyle vertical, based in NYC. She blogs on social media, entrepreneurship and tech at YuliZiv.com . Follow her on Twitter @yuliz . No matter how much we open up on the web, creating new connections online can be intimidating. Just as not everyone can start a conversation with a stranger at the bar, not everyone can comfortably start conversations in social media.
We’ve gone through a strange change, from people not realizing that they need to be their own brand, to people not realizing how being the brand impacts the way they do business. It’s interesting, really. Tom Peters was the first person I recall talking about it, back in the Alan Webber days of FastCompany ( The Brand Called You ). Back then, we were all cubicle farmers and beige employees of the cog-world (okay, not true, but that’s what it felt like).
When YOU Are the Brand
We're often asked how to build corporate support for social media projects. There are many social media advocates that find it hard to sell internally. What's the best approach if you're a Marketing Director selling a social media proposition to the Board? Or a Department Head keen to include social media in your 2010 budget? I have recently coached a client in selling his social media business plan internally.

Nieuwe media zijn geen bedreiging van de sociale samenhang, integendeel. Terug naar de goede (?) oude tijd is geen oplossing.
