Visualizing The Web & Social Networks

Seeing is believing and visuals are powerful. I’ve collected a few visualization tools for Facebook, news feeds, and Twitter to let you view networks and conversations at a glance.

Mentionmap

Mentionmap is a web app for exploring the Twitter users and hashtags that mention your account most.  The great thing about Mentionmap is that it is interactive which allows you to be able to drill down within your network to connect with people or topics that are relevant.

Twitter Venn

Twitter Venn is a Venn diagram based on three Twitter search terms. The diagram …

Friday Five: Find Health Information Online

There has been significant discussion in the last year about how digital and social media impact communication about health, especially how its impacts the role of both the public and companies in that industry. Knowing that these changes could affect those of us who spend our days communicating on behalf of health clients, Edelman’s Health practice has been focused on developing materials to educate ourselves and clients about how digital media impacts the traditionally regulated industry and its communication efforts. This includes a weekly post called the Health D…

Health Digital Check-Up: Places You Might Not Know To Find Health Online

Dave Levy and I decided to mix things up this week to provide different perspectives on our respective weekly posts – you can expect a Health focused Friday Five from him later this week.

Consumers are becoming more open about their personal health with social media poised as the medium of choice for this gathering groundswell. Everything from chronic conditions to annual goals to insurance questions have found a home among virtual friends online. Today’s update reflects five places across many parts of the online world that you may not already be visiting …

Bill Gross, CEO, TweetUp, Idealab

Originally post on The Steve Rubel Stream.

Last week in LA I had a chance to visit Idealab, an incubator that pioneered pay-per-click advertising a decade ago. The purpose of my visit was to meet CEO Bill Gross and his team and to learn more about TweetUp, an innovative new service that, I believe, has a great shot of creating a demand-driven ad network around Twitter.

(Idealab, not TweetUp specifically, is an Edelman client.)

Unlike Twitter’s own ad platform, TweetUp will surface not only tweets but tweeters. What’s more, they will be integra…

Centromarca e Edelman: sviluppo sostenibile, obiettivi di crescita e interessi dei consumatori

Centromarca Edelman and sustainable development, growth objectives and interests of consumers

Anche se gli effetti della crisi economica mondiale si fanno sentire, sempre di più i consumatori chiedono alle aziende, ai brand e a se stessi di impegnarsi nel sociale, come dimostrano i risultati della terza edizione dell’indagine annuale di Edelman, goodpurpose, sulle abitudini dei consumatori presentato il 21 aprile, a Milano, in anteprima al convegno di Centromarca (Tra obiettivi di cr…

The Case For Converging Your Personal/Professional Networks

Originally posted on The Steve Rubel Stream

Do you “cross the streams?” In other words, do you co-mingle your personal and professional social networks? This is a tough question to answer. In this essay (which is also my Adage column next week), I present the pro-side of the argument. I also opened up this discussion on Facebook.

As I travel the world, however, I am hearing distinct argument for keeping these separate. LinkedIn CEO Jeff Weiner and I discussed this yesterday. He (correctly) called me “an edge case.” So with this in mind, consider this Part…

Tools And Techniques To Manage Your Online Reputation

When it comes to driving positive brand awareness, it takes a lot of time and effort to maintain a company’s online reputation. Wikipedia says that a reputation is the opinion (or social evaluation) of a group, person or an organization based on certain criteria. With the dynamic nature of the social web and given that sharing content is as common as saying hello; it’s imperative for brands to monitor their reputation before a particular message or allegation becomes viral that probably shouldn’t have.

This is equally as important for individuals. I don’t reme…

SOBCon2010, Here We Come

This Friday through Sunday David Armano, Rick Murray and I will be attending SOBCon2010 in Chicago. SOBCon is a think tank of some of the most brilliant minds in the digital world.

Just like our coverage of SXSW, we’ll be shooting video, doing interviews, and writing about t…

Health Digital Check-Up: How The Red Sox Taught Me About Patient Communities

There’s a very specific bond that happens among native New Englanders around our baseball team. We love our team, and from April to October, no matter where we’ve been displaced, we sometimes act like we live and die by the Boston Red Sox. Well, things haven’t exactly started off great this spring for my team; however, I still spend about three hours nearly every evening tracking games on my mobile phone, tweeting about the most recent developments, and looking to gather resources from blogs and influential fan voices.

It isn’t rare for people to treat …
