9. …Blogs are like conversations with friends. You share what you feel and what excites you about certain things. It's almost as good as being there. The fact that others can Google your topic and read is like tuning into a television station. We all want to know what's out there. Who's doing what, shopping where and what products help others. Blogs are just another way to share all the great things, not so great things and just a part of who we are. An outlet if you will. The blogisphere community is all connect and we make contacts in many ways. Through posts, through twitter conversations, through smaller nit community's, live web casts, and through conferences that we met in person. We make many friends and help each other with lot of topics. Many of us are Mom bloggers who stay at home and have no way of making new friends or communicating with others until we found blogging. Blogging creates friendships and that's what makes us real and connected. 40 year old Mom blogger “nightowlmama” (#260)

42. Comparing User Engagement Across Different Ad Types (Psychster and allrecipes.com, 2010) Sponsored Content ads, in which individuals viewed a holiday page that was “brought to you by” a leading brand, were the most engaging but produced the least purchase intent of the 7 ad types tested. Corporate Profiles on social-networking sites produced greater purchase intent and more recommendations when users could become a fan and add the logo to their own profiles than when they could not. Give and Get Widgets in which individuals could create and customize something (a car or a dinner menu) and then either send it to a friend (“give” widget) or keep it for themselves (“get” widget) were more engaging than traditional banner advertisements but no more likely to produce an intent to purchase. Above conclusions held across brands (a leading soup brand and a leading car brand) and publishers (on Allrecipes.com and on Facebook.com), but like traditional ads, widgets had increased success if the brand was relevant to the website (i.e a soup brand on a cooking website).

49. TecAccess Trains Disabled Youth For Social Media CareersFebruary 23, 2011, Social media such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn are transforming how businesses develop new products and improve services — and the need for tech-savvy people to run social media for companies is growing by leaps and bounds…with students between ages 19 and 24 with disabilities ranging from autism and Down syndrome to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Social media is a niche that can easily be filled by high functioning people with these types of disabilities, because it doesn’t require an as-intense level of social or customer interaction as other jobs might. The focus on information technology also appeals to many people with disabilities who have grown up with technology that helps them learn and communicate, and tend to be more tech-savvy as a whole. Class instructors are already reporting progress. One of the interns with Aspergers’ who came into the first class was very hesitant and withdrawn, and didn’t connect with other members of the group, says instructor Chris Hagerman. The intern had difficulty speaking when asked a question in class, but she could write “furiously” and had no trouble reading her answers out loud. “There was much less pressure writing down her answer and then reading it to the class,” Hagerman says. “Now she can’t wait to get started.” abledbody.com/newswatch/2011/02/23/tecaccess-trains-disabled-youth-for-social-media-careers/
