How Social Networking Responds to Death

Filed under Thread Picks by Kim Krause Berg on June 29, 2009

At Cre8asiteforums, we’re discussing the Internet response to celebrity deaths. What some of us saw early on, particularly in the case of Michael Jackson, was a mix of shock and grief and a sudden vile response. If you didn’t present the “correct” opinion in Twitter, you could risk being “unfollowed”.

Participants in The Internet Response To Michael Jackson’s Sudden Death bring a variety of experiences from all over the world.

For many, the Internet was NOT the place to go for any kind of solace or even factual information. It is, however, where millions went at first and many sites crashed as a result.

Does Social Networking Create Change?

Filed under Thread Picks by Kim Krause Berg on June 22, 2009

A great debate is taking place in Cre8asiteforums on social media, social networking, human behavior, societal change and whether “awareness” is mistaken for actual change.”

Ruud Hein starts off the Opinion: Media, Social Or Not, Does Not Cause Change by referring to how the latest Iranian political situation is being communicated “live” via Twitter.

Some of the discussion:

I repeated a story I’d heard on the news about an elderly couple who were spending the night on their roof when the quakes started. They struggled to hold hands and keep from being separated as their building pancaked, but after the quake the husband was left to tell the tale and the wife had slipped out of his grasp and been swallowed by rubble. I told him it brought tears to my eyes.

One way to get people to notice you is to offer to interview them. I was referred to the Wildfire Marketing Group by a good friend who suggested me as prospect for their Thought Leader interview series.

The interview, Thought Leader Thursday – Kim Krause Berg, ran today. It’s not real long. The topic is usability and seo. While there, you may enjoy the other interviews they posted.

Customize WordPress Greetbox

I was alerted the other day about a way to customize the WP Greetbox to be used for targeted ad placement by the author of Turn WP Greet Box Into Your Own Targeted Ad Program.

I decided to take a look and ended up adding it to mine and a client’s blog. I didn’t customize for ad placement but did mess around with settings to create custom greetings. For some reason, I couldn’t get it to render properly on my blog but it worked gracefully on my client’s site. Both are Thesis themes. I removed mine until I have time to figure out what happened.

Ruud Heim, Unmoderated

Cre8asiteforums Moderator, Ruud Heim, was interviewed recently by Gab Goldenberg, in one of the most delightful interview presentations I’ve ever read.  For starters, Ruud Hein: “How I Stay Ahead of The SEO Pack” is loaded with photos of Ruud in action.

I’m envious of his big chair. His advice has led me to beg for my own dual monitor setup for my birthday (Eric came through, yay!).

17,000 photos?

Comedy, laughter, is an amazing thing. It’s a real, freaking miracle. You don’t see ants roll on their back from sheer laughter… I suspect dogs smile though…
