I am happy to share that my new blog New Media Chatter has gone live.

If trying to do one blog is not hard enough, LSF Interactive has asked me to do one that focuses more on New Media, Social Media and Social Networking.  My plan is to have this blog, PeckPack.com, be more personal from this part. Not really sure what personal means  in this day of sharing everything. Guess we will find out.

So please check it out and leave me a comment to make me feel good!

Thanks

Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant!  This marketing campaign for M & M’s uses New Media so well I think im crying. There are so many things right about this, I don’t know where to start. How about I just list them? People like lists! In no particular order:

-Its in Facebook! That is where 100 million people are.

-It has great content and content is king. The video is funny, actually made me laugh.

-It asked me a question, so it starts a conversation

-It shows my friends that I  have commented and like it. (hey I want to be part of the conversation)

-Its placed on my homepage in Facebook, heck it feels just like another notification.

-Now it shows up in my profile for my friends to see because I commented on it.(click the link to see the video)

-Did I mention its brilliant?

-Oh and it motivated me to blog about it. (free advertising right there)

I have to say this is the best use of social media I have seen in a long time.

What do you think?

About 1 1/2 ago I worked with Mark Yoshimoto Nemcoff of the Pacific Coast Hellway on a Virtual World project called Shadow Falls. While doing that I made a donation to a charity in return Don LaFontaine did a 24 second greeting for my answering machine. I still have it on there to this day. Thought I would share it with you.

Is it just me?

Maybe it is just me. I am not really sure. The strangest thing has been happening to me on Facebook.

Let me back up and start from the beginning. I see my Facebook friends as three groups. There are my New Media Friends the Susan Reynolds, Cali Lewis, and Mitch Joel types. Are we best friends? No. Do we know and hopefully respect each other in the New Media space…yes. Then there are my high school friends, college friends, parents from the kids school and my best buddies group. Lastly, there are people I just don’t know. They are friends of friends. You know the “You have 5 mutual friends” kind of thing. Or maybe they read my blog and added me, we could of exchanged business cards or something. Ill add them back, check out their blog,profile, linkedin page and such. I try not to add friends via the mutual thing unless we have like a lot of friends in common and/or know their name.(This is my disclaimer so i am not a hypocrite) Oh and never shall the these groups meet until…well.. now.

In the past 2 weeks I have gotten 5 emails or instant messages from friends going.. ” Who the heck is Joe Blow?” Ill say “How the heck do you know that person?” Their response, “Well they added me on Facebook?”. I usually tell them to ignore them unless they are interesting in expanding their friendship base. I share this with you because I find it odd. Why do people add people at random? To what end? My thoughts on this well Ill share this with you in list form.. cause people like lists.

My thoughts: (cause your dying to know)

- Some people on Facebook are clicking and adding friends at random.

- These requests are usually only friends with me, cause that why they contacted me to ask “Who is Joe Blow and why are they adding me?” Why would you want to be friends with someone you have 1 mutual friend with,is on the other side of the country and no common interest? I don’t get it.

- They don’t care who they are friends with and just want to increase their friend count. Kind of odd to me. Ego?

-Is the term “Friend” not what it use to be. People are just adding “friends” at random. Maybe we need subgroups like “Friend”, “Heard their Name”, “No Clue but lets be Facebook buddies”, “Random Add”

Am Iirked, bitter, on a rant? Maybe a little. I find it odd, that you want friends just to increase the number.

Just my thoughts after getting another call.

Agree? Disagree? Discuss…
