Candidates in YEG, have you heard of Formspring?
It’s tweets like the one above that urged me to write this post.
A contact form? For a question such as this? Actually? After sifting through the list of candidates @mastermaq put together on Twitter, It would appear as though many of the candidates are using this same method for Q&A. I can appreciate that people have questions or comments that they’d like to remain private, but...

Community Manager Chat on Twitter
I took part in the #cmgrchat today (September 15, 2010) on Twitter and decided afterwards that I’d compile some of the usage stats into a quick infographic.
If anyone who took part in the chat wants to do something with the data, let me know and I’ll send it your way. Or, if there’s something you’d like to see that isn’t here this around, let me know and...

In no particular order and with a few of my thoughts spliced...

Here’s what this means: no two people will see the same web. Once a single search would do the trick - and everyone saw the same results. That’s what made search engine optimization work. Now, with this, everyone is going to start tweaking their searches in real-time. The reason this is a game changer is feedback. When you get feedback, you change...

Tweeting about UNIQLO products lowers their...
I’m pretty impressed by the Lucky Counter campaign. Its rules are simple: tweet about a UNIQLO product of your choice, according to a set of rules on their website, and the price of that product will drop.
It’s an insanely great way to amass brand awareness and reputation quickly. It’s easy, fun, exciting, engaging, and clearly worth while. Every tweet that goes out about a...
