Social Permissions for 2013
 |
Social Permissions fo 2013Last year I found myself overwhelmed by changes in the privacy settings in many of my most used Social Media applications. I decided then, what I’m going to tell you now: Just set everything to open, and don’t post stuff you don’t want on your??permanent??record online.If you are rather more lackadaisical to the issue of privacy you might want to try MyPermissions, which has an overview of all the settings.
Alternatively you could use PrivacyFix which can automate this for…  |

PeerIndex’s Perks only for the UK
Lately I’ve been noticing that many of the perks that PeerIndex is offering only valid based in the UK, even if you are eligible for a perk you are unable to get it. The same is true for Klout, its perks are primarily available in the US. A marketing company will start up in the EU, China who will use Klout and PeerIndex scores to give out perks to influencers. Perhaps that marketing company is you…  |

Posterous Trouble #twitter

Posterous Trouble
After the Twitter acquisition of Posterous - the service known for it’s ability to automatically repost to multiple Social Media Services – seems to increasingly be in decline. After recent upload and mail issues, which both don’t seem to be fully resolved after they occurred more than 1 month ago. The API which allows third party apps to connect has unresolved bugs which make them unreliable. Is Twitter in the process of killing Posterous? Soon after Posterous announced on March 12th the FAQ announced that [they]’ll share instructions on how you can backup the content of your Space soon. This was a first hint that Twitter might kill Posterous, yet now almost 4 months their instructions have failed to materialize. And today I saw that there at least is some development on the site. They released a bug where in the Edit tags field they return the table indices rather than the values.  |

Value of a Tweet in Understanding Customer Needs
Many of us value what we say a little too highly. And the businesses mining – trolling – Social Media for business opportunities are valuing what we say a little too highly. We fill our streams with vapid content, that can be used to garner sentiment. However it will not pay the rent.  Tweets Offer Little Value in Understanding Customer Needs
Social media. A rich source of insight and opportunity for companies. Why, it’s an article of faith that customers are talking…on their terms…where they want. So get out there and…

I’m completely offended by recent articles in the news: Luka Magnotta is a fucking amateur compared to Patrick Bateman.

HootSuite Auto Scheduling using Google Docs #twitter
I like using the HootSuite bulk uploader, and round the time I posted the post HootSuite Bulk Uploads I had set up a Google Docs file to produce the csv file it requires as input. It can simply be made by uploading the example provided by HootSuite to Google Docs and using that as a template.
As I was explaining the features of HootSuite to my mother, including the bulk uploader, I suddenly realized that I could make my spreadsheet more valuable for myself and others by adding a check to see whether it has 140 characters. I wasn’t able to use the regular Docs Data Validation, so I decided to roll my own in the script editor, which meant adding a Trigger to the script so it is called after the spreadsheet is edited.
