Read my guest post  Get Your House In Order on Artists Who Thrive, a blog run by one of my clients, Ann Rea Inc.  Thanks for the opportunity, Ann!

A great list (always popular with users!) of what NOT to look for in a social media expert.  While many of these made me LOL, there is a lot of truth to many of these, so check them out. For the record, I pass most, if not all, of these tests – but I still wouldn’t call myself as SM Expert. The key takeaway, I think, is that Social Media should be part of a plan, not the plan.   Thanks Sarah & Peter.

See Facebook’s recent post about Vanity URL’s for Fan Pages and Personal Profiles. Claim yours, especially if you are a brand. They’ve taken steps to prevent squatting ahead of time, but who knows once it launches!

for social networking?  I love this post by Andrew Gluck, even more so because it  comes from an industry in which could really use social media tools.  My husband works in finance – an industry which is heavily relient on personal connections and networking – but I just got him to try linkedin about a month ago, only to find that no one he knows is using it yet.  Could it be that my neophyte husband is an early adopter?

As a working mom, I’m thrilled to see Cubes & Crayons expanding – now with a Potrero location.  While I haven’t tried it myself (yet!) I appreciate the combination of services they offer as well as the flexibility (key for any parent!).  Now that it’s local, I’ll be checking it out soon!

I’m speaking at the Berkeley Public Library this afternoon at 2 pm to an audience of small business entrepreneurs. The event is brought together by the Alameda County Small Business Development Center – a great FREE resource for small businesses. The topic is Social Networking for Small Business – with recommendations on tools, how to get started, and how to maximize efforts. Looking forward to a great audience followed by a good panel of industry experts!

Embed isn’t working with the custom channel for some reason, so you’ll have to see Trump + Kodak here.

I’ve had several people point this out to me already, but it’s worth watching if you haven’t already seen it.  Great lesson! Facebook Manners & You

A handy-dandy list, all in one place. Thanks BuzzMarketing Daily
