#web 2.0 and marketing

I found an interesting video. In this video, "...Seth Godin explains how web 2.0 and social networks can help marketers build a new kind of relationship with their customers.". Here is the link, www.bnet.com/2422-13723_23-162360.html. I think web 2.0 fundamentally changed the way marketers communicate with their customers and deliver customer value in a much more efficient way.

# Exploring Technorati

I tried this website and searched" learning 2.0" on the blog posts and the blog directory but could not find an search box in Tags. The searched results are the same for the blog posts and the blog directory. I didnot find a particular blog I was interested in because of the time. To me, Technorati is a "google" for blogs.

# The social bookmark

I found the social bookmark of del.icio.us is doing through Yahoo! I set up an account but I am not sure wether I will use it later on. It is a cool idea but it is like another organizer. When I have too many organizers, I may need more organizers to organize these organizers. :)

# Explore twitter

I have had a twitter account for some time. But I almost did not post anything. I learned what a harsh tag is and tried to find the monash23 groupd but did not succeeded. I am still not quite sure whether I will use twitter in the future.

# play with online image generator

I tried the Generator Blog and it was horrible to see my face on a man's body. ^-^
I like www.imagechef.com, which is simple and fun to play around.

#9 Locate some Marketing blogs

I used the google reader to locate some marketing blogs. I useed the add a subscription tool and searched for "marketing research". I then added the Journal of Marketing Research-AMA blog. Then I can see all the important upcoming events organized by AMA. It was a great experience and made me realize how many things I have missed without using this tool ealier.

#8 Learn about RSS feed

Yes, I saw those little icons before but I did not know that it stands for "Really Simple Syndication". I added Peter's blog of Monash 23 things to my google reader. It is really cool. I think it would help to filter the huge volume of information available online these days. But the challenge is how to use the tool wisely.
