How to be Everywhere in Social Media
Image by < ilian /> via FlickrOne of the most challenging things about being involved in social media is the number of tools you have to keep track of. You have Twitter, Plurk, Facebook, Linked In, You Tube, Last.FM, MySpace, Identi.ca, Brightkite and many, many more.
So how do you keep track of them all and remember to keep them all updated?
The Puck has written an amazing article called Ten Steps to Being Everywhere in Social Media and it is well worth a read. Through his article I discovered the site, Profilactic which has given me the great list in my sidebar containing all the places I can be found online. It puts all your streams and that of your friends in one handy place, but unlike FriendFeed, you can not comment on your friends’ posts.
Also, I have found the AdobeAir application SocialAddict which pulls through the mobile version of 11 of the most popular social networking site and puts them into one handy desktop application. I prefer Twhirl for using Twitter, but for my other sites this application seems pretty good. Maybe using this application I can stop losing so much karma on Plurk because I never seem to find the time to check in every day.
