Mining the Tweets I received through my Google Alerts a very interesting article : Twitter is in talks with Microsoft and Google regarding the use of Data Mining technology on user Tweets. Despite the fact that Twitter execs do not appear so eager in making the deal as soon as possible, these news clearly show where things are going. If and when the deal is finalized it will be very interesting to see : 1) What kind of Data and Text Mining techniques will be mostly used? Which of them will prove useful? Many examples of what can be done in terms of Data and Text Mining application on Twitter were given in this blog (starting from January 2009). Although Twitter will be able to monetize through insights extracted from Cluster Analysis and Opinion - Sentiment Mining perhaps the most important analysis is finding patterns in user emotional states. 2) How will Twitter users react when knowing their Tweets are being analyzed? 3) Which other technologies will be mostly sought?

Often, these are good efforts, with good content, a fair level of traffic, and perhaps a comment every now and again. Today, I want to look beyond just creating "a" blog, and share some strategies and tactics for creating a "great" blog.

Andy Borowitz: Slain Al-Qaeda Leader Posthumously Named Employee In a new videotape broadcast today on the Arabic-language Al-Jazeera network, terror mastermind Osama bin Laden named fallen terrorist Abu Yahya al-Libi Al-Qaeda's "Employee of the Month" for December. In the tape, in which Mr. bin Laden is shown holding the terror network's "Employee of the Month" plaque and then hanging it up on the wall of his cave, the Al-Qaeda kingpin had high words of praise for al-Libi, who was killed this week by a CIA predator drone. "Abu Yahya al-Libi worked well with others, and always kept his work area clean," Mr. bin Laden said. "For this, I hereby name him Al-Qaeda's Employee of the Month for December." Intelligence sources believe that by posthumously bestowing the "Employee of the Month" award upon the deceased terrorist, Mr. bin Laden may be trying to entice other madmen to assume Mr. al-Libi's position as number three man in al-Qaeda, a job whose previous occupants have been captured, imprisoned or killed.

McDonald's social media chief: 'We're learning from our experiences' Naturally, many bloggers and reporters are calling it a “McFail.” Last Thursday, the company’s official Twitter account unveiled two hashtags, #McDStories and #MeetTheFarmers, as promoted tweets. The effort began in earnest with these tweets: A lot of love and passion goes into producing the beef for our burgers – evidence shown here: #MeetTheFarmers “When u make something w/ pride, people can taste it,” – McD potato supplier #McDStories.” But things quickly went wrong for McDonald’s. “Unfortunately, the only taste I get out of McD's is "despair" RT @McDonalds When u make something w/pride, people can taste it #McDStories” While animals rights groups seized the hashtag to share unsavory (and that’s putting it lightly) images of McDonald’s food and animals. Now, the majority of the tweets mention McDonald’s social media “fail” and note that it will be a popular case study for PR and marketing teams.
