Information and Knowledge

There are a lot of great books out right now in Social Media. Today I went to the library to check some books out and order some others they don’t carry.  I already own Groundswell, so why check it out from the library?  Well it’s a little trick I learned a while ago, which I explain in the video.

Also, I mention a Librarian Secret towards the end of the video. All in all, I think libraries are great place. When was the last time you were in one? Don’t you think it’s time?

Here are the books I mentioned in the video:

Groundswell: Winning in a World Transformed by Social Technologies

Crowdsourcing: Why the Power of the Crowd Is Driving the Future of Business

Momentum: Igniting Social Change in the Connected Age

Who is going to win out of the 2008 Presidential Candidates? The Republican Presidential Candidate? The Democratic Presidential Candidate? A Libretarian Presidential Candidate?

Well if you know me, I’m not one to get into politics. Why can’t a “real” person run for President of the United States of America?

Well the thing is, YOU CAN!

WATCH THIS VIDEO:

So with all my friends over at PalTalk there were over 50,000 people all talking about a new presidential candidate.
So why is that person me? Perhaps it’s because of my last post stating that Social Media IS for Business. Maybe it was the video I did, making fun of marketers, “How NOT to be Social”. It could even be the blog post where I was called a Social Media Maven. Or maybe it’s something even MORE Viral!

If you want to market yourself or business, using the Social Media Landscape is an absolute must!

Presidential Candidate Barack Obama has been all over the Social Media Landscape. He has distinct groups on many Social Networking Sites working towards getting supporters. Presidential Candidate John McCain is doing the same, although not as much. He’s picking up speed now though. I guess it all depends on your targeted market.

However, could a Presidential Candidate, born FROM Social Media, really make a dent in the US Presidential Election or any country for that matter? I guess we’ll see what happens. It’s an exciting time.

So would you vote for me based on my blog, or my profile on Facebook, my Tweets on Twitter, or my Chat Room on PalTalk? Would you vote for anyone that way?
