When I saw this video break on Twitter last week, I was intrigued to watch it. I’m interested in, and enjoy writing about viral videos (the good, the bad & the naughty). What I find most creative about this one is it’s length. The Hot IT Chicks is ahead of the curve, and extending users [...]

Does social media marketing work? You bet it does. Frequently, I’m pummeled with questions about how to measure & monetize social media. Not just by my clients, but by other marketing professionals that haven’t shifted to include this new aspect into their planning.

It’s nice to see him tapping into a younger crowd than Leno. It’s a good spoof. Watch for: Twitter Tracker Sweet Tweets Tweet of [...]

Retweeting is the viral power of Twitter. Basically it means you send a message out to your community of followers, someone thinks it’s interesting enough to pass along to their followers (a retweet/RT).
