I’ve jumped on the Facebook bandwagon. To better manage my "Brand", I’ve decided to narrow down my list of social media/web 2.0 apps to my blog, LinkedIn and Facebook. I’ve surrendered to the fact that twitter is not my cup of tea. It’s an interesting thing to follow some of the tweets but I’m not to the point of that type of always on posting. I also don’t have the mobile access which I think is a strong tool for twitter users.
I also like the premise behind LinkedIn and Facebook and the amount of information you can provide. As I look through the expressive branding glasses, it’s important for me to be consistent and manage the content and regularity in putting information out there. I’m using linkedin for professional, work, networking and facebook for more of a personal meets professional space.
There was another story about how Ms. New Jersey was being blackmailed because of pictures on her facebook page. These tools are designed for personal expression but we do have to be careful the content we put out there. It’s an interesting experiment.
