Actually, the latter three are arguably more middle in the road, though you might not see it that way, if you’re on the right. How About Some Tea? For fun, let’s do some side-by-side. How about Tea Party? Bing is on the left-side (literally and figuratively) suggesting anti-Tea Party pundit Keith Olbermann. As for Estate 44, its aim is to “expose” Tea Party conservatives online. Twitter’s on the right, listing accounts that are pro-Tea Party. Oh, and what’s the California flag doing as a background to Twitter’s recommendations? That’s … [Read more...] about Who To Follow For Political Tweets? Bing Endorses Sarah Palin!

So does Workplace by Facebook live up to the hype? Some words of caution: Beware of “shiny new object” syndrome Let’s not be too distracted by shiny new things. Instead, let’s focus on the basics of communication. Communications tools are the tools; not the strategy. Communication channels are the channels; not the message. How we apply them, and what we use them for, is what counts. The key is to understand the pros and cons of each tool and channel, and when to use them. This means taking into account employee audience demographics, their likely mind-sets, and business objectives. We also need to remember that important messages need to be repeated multiple times, using multiple … [Read more...] about Workplace by Facebook: a reality check
