Welcome to episode #178 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. This is also episode #20 of Media Hacks and it's live from New York City. In a very rare moment, the entire Media Hacks crew - Chris Brogan, C.C. Chapman, Christopher S. Penn, Julien Smith and myself (with the exception of Hugh McGuire) - converged in New York City for the Web 2.0 Expo (and Web 2.Open). Wednesday night after dinner, we all met up at the Roger Smith Hotel (in Julien's chambers) and recorded the following rambles, tangents, swear words and non-relevant-to-marketing conversations. That being said, it got interesting, we wavered, we switched, we debated and we made a ton of inside jokes. In the end, the conversation looks at the audience, the new media and those swimming in the deep end of it all. Enjoy the conversation (but keep in mind this is not work safe)...

Are the people who are tweeting up-staging the speakers? Everything is meta. Do you measure up? The value of the individual tweet. It's all about being a part of the audience. If we don't tangent, what do we have? Talking about music is like dancing about architecture. Feeding systems. Red pill - blue pill... how we navigate the system. Christopher S. Penn whips out a knife (not kidding). Is Twitter getting tired? Chris Brogan and his Twitter Mafia. Twitter sensitivity - in terms of filling the Twitter stream. Thoughts around how well Seth Godin manages his time, effort and value delivered. The power of leverage. Guy Kawasaki and how he manages Twitter.

What is community? (we take a shot at this question). Equality of opportunity and equality of results. Communities need leaders. The Internet is not about equals... nor is communities.

The legendary Guy Kawasaki, entrepreneur, venture capitalist, author and Twitter aficionado talks about the strategies he uses for gaining incredible numbers of people following him on twitter. More than 180,000 people are reading his tweets as of October 2009. He talks about how there is no correct or incorrect way to use Twitter despite the challenging criticisms he gets from his followers on his strategy. He uses Twitter mostly promotionally just to build Alltop, a company he co-founded and loves dearly. Guy talks about how he is a broadcast network—more like PBS as he educates his readers with his content-rich tweets. He uses ghost writers and discusses his transparency and tricks-of-the-trade.

By Miiko Mentz At the September 2009 Startup2Startup dinner, organizer Dave McClure, also of Founders Fund and 500 Hats, produced what I would say was one of the best Startup2Startup events to date. McClure brought together two heavyweights to duke it out over whether or not Apple is evil and becoming Big Brother among startups and platform companies.

By Miiko Mentz At the Startup2Startup dinner last Thursday, organizer Dave McClure, also of Founders Fund and 500 Hats, produced what I would say was one of the best Startup2Startup events to date.

In this two-part series I discuss using social media to connect with local customers. First up, I'll relate a personal story with a great new site called Alltop.com, and how using social media got Local Nation listed on the small business section of Alltop. In my follow-up vlog session I'll give you three practical uses for social media that can help you build traffic for your site and win new business from your local marketplace.Saving loads of money on marketing expense highlights a fundamental value of social media marketing - that is, you can connect with customers online without spending a dime. The visitors I've already received from Alltop would easily have cost me thousands of dollars to acquire if I were to have used traditional online media like banner ads or offline media like Yellow Pages or Newspapers. Do I have your attention yet? Great!Yes, using social media in your marketing mix will save you tons of money, but that's not the only reason you should consider it. There's also a very good chance that social media will connect you with new customers who aren't using traditional advertising to find local products and services. This number is already large and grows bigger each day. Sure, some of them are younger and you may or may not care about this market (yet) but I can assure you that some social media tools connect with every age, race and demographic group. In other words, there are social media tools that you can't afford to ignore. I'll end with a BIG THANK YOU to Guy Kawasaki, Kathryn Henkens, and Will Mayall who run Nononina the company that produces both Alltop and other sites like Truemors.And now for a story about Julian (that's me) and a guy named Guy.Julian Seery Gude, editor Local Na8ion - Where you are is where it's at.
