What Will Social, Local and Mobile Integration Really Look Like? And What Are We Calling It?

I have a feeling that those marketers who have successfully connected with customers and prospects through mobile opt-in, whether messaging or a custom app for the smart phone, may establish deep loyalty before their competitors even hit the ground running with mobile marketing. To that end, a combined 30 % of marketers surveyed by Silverpop planned to launch a mobile app in 2011 or 2012, and another 33% already had. Effective strategy and integration of social, local and mobile marketing will remain in focus for marketers in 2012.

How to Enable the New Facebook Timeline NOW TNW Facebook (TNWfacebook) Facebook Timeline Redefines User Profiles Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has unveiled the company's much anticipated overhaul of profile pages, transforming the user profile into a virtual scrapbook that digs all the way into your past.

Source: Facebook To Launch Read, Listened, Watched, And Want Buttons The cat is out of the bag that Facebook is going to launch something big at its developer conference f8 this week. We’ve heard about the social music services that could be debuting in a few days, but as the New York Times conveyed this past weekend, Facebook is planning for ways to surface personal content better. And we’ve heard from a source that Facebook will introduce new buttons on the wall that will begin introducing some granularity to the “Like” concept. We’re told these new buttons are “Read,” “Listened,” “Watched.” The network will also soon launch new social commerce buttons like “Want” following the introductions of the aforementioned buttons. It’s important to qualify that this is from a source (and not from Facebook) but from what we hear, Facebook users will be able to click Read, Listened, Watched on content in their news feed. And it’s unclear what will happen to the Like button and how these new buttons will affect the Like button.
