Social Media: A conversation
I’ve heard a lot of MDs and marketing managers talking about their Twitter or Facebook “campaigns” lately, and not really understanding what the real benefits of Social Media are.

I created Melbourne Live Music, a page dedicated to the live music scene in Melbourne. I kept it intentionally genre unspecific as I want it to become a community controlled and driven entity.

Klout is an excellent online tool for tracking your twitter progress. It provides a great deal of specific stats, as well as suggestions on where you can improve your overall twitter engagement.
How many people are seeing your tweets if they are re-tweeted, who are you influencing and being influenced by, where are these people located in the world?
My Klout stats are a bit lame; so here is...
