La boîte à outils idéale du Community Manager Quels sont les outils indispensables à un Community manager efficace ?

Vous pouvez intégrer les flux de Google actualité, de Google Blogs, de Twitter, de Delicious, Slideshare… L’intégration de flux RSS en provenance de Twitter se fait sur l’ancienne version en ligne (plus pour longtemps semble-t-il).

3 apps to check username availability across all sites at once I recently made a half serious post on FriendFeed as to whether or not you would name your child if the domain of their name wasn’t available.
