Uh-oh. I just listened to the first “keynote” speaker of the Social Media Success Summit 2012, one of the better conferences about social media. It costs real money to attend it.
Reaction to first speaker: I’ve never felt so anti-social in my life.
Do you think it’s a bad sign that I feel this way after listening to the latest bells and whistles now available for businesses to manage their social media accounts?
The photo above is of a voltage meter borrowed from a very nice plumber who came to my house to do some work. I photographed it and added it to my “Tools of a Trade” portfolio. I place it in this post because there is a simplicity to this time-worn tool telling you the critical information you need.
Apparently, assessing the power of social media takes, well…it takes a village filled with tech addicts and computer displays of real-time data that surely must have been used a year ago in the War Room of The White House when everyone monitored the Navy Seals arrival at Osama Bin Laden’s door in Abbottabad, Pakistan.
Today the conference continues with Google +, Facebook, YouTube.
I have this insatiable need to buy reams of yellow legal paper.
Sigh.
What’s next for me and this anti-social spasm?
A cabin in Montana and a manifesto?
