Did Social Media Kill The Press Release? Social media has fundamentally altered the way companies need to think about public relations in order to drive their messages. This paradigm shift has changed the way we define influencers and, more importantly, has transformed the way we reach them.

BranchOut sur Facebook. Zoom.it. First Look: “Hands On” With Google+ I’ve been manically playing with Google Plus for about an hour now and, while there is disagreement here among the editorial team at Search Engine Land, I give it a qualified “thumbs up.”

First Look: “Hands On” With Google+

At first glance many people will dismiss Google Plus as redundant and derivative of Twitter and Facebook, in particular. This was also true of the ill-fated Buzz. But this is a much better and more thoughtfully designed product than Buzz. Familiar UI but Takes Getting Used To Accordingly the interface is familiar and relatively intuitive but Google Plus still takes some “getting used to.” Google’s radically different product Google Wave crashed and burned because people didn’t really know what it was or how to use it. I’m not going to attempt a comprehensive feature tour.

Better than Buzz As I said, out of the gate it’s a much stronger product than Buzz ever was/is (Buzz is integrated as a tab here.) 960 Grid System. Capture your world in 3D.
