iPhone Siri is very funny, i asked from it, "How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?"

Siri: "It depends on whether you are talking about African or European woodchucks."

Social media apps like Twitter can be a useful tool in promoting your business, cause, product, even your presence. They however, come with risks to your network security and/or privacy. To counter these risks, check out:

Facebook will either go away eventually or reinvent itself so as to be nearly unrecognizable.
They're the elephant in the room now. They're not the underdog company in the dorm room, and just like Wal-Mart and McDonald's know all too well, it's not easy having the biggest bullseye on one's back.
Anything jumping from trendy to mainstream has to face this stuff. See: myspace, any "hot new club", almost any "hot new band", etc.

That last song was Ronnie Hawkins' "40 Days." Hawkins founded the Hawks, which evolved (without Hawkins) into the Band. Here's a very mature Hawkins doing the song. A search for the title and Conan's name will give you plenty of pirate video from other stops on the O'Brien tour.

I'm not being snarky, but fyi Swarm badges have been given out in KC at the Sprint Center for shows such as Pearl Jam.

I liked your review. Wish I could have been there.

Re: Simultaneously Charmed and Confused by Hallmark on Social Media

Jason @lockerpartner — Tue, 20 Apr 2010 22:45:24 -0000

@joecox: Hallmark did respond on Facebook and Twitter. Here's what @HallmarkPR tweeted:

"Sorry for the confusion, thanks for your perspective. As w/all soc med ours is a work in progress but changes coming soon."

@patchchord: As for survival, it looks like the AR cards they rolled out at Valentine's Day didn't survive. I can't find them anywhere on the site. Probably for the best. But I did find an animated sketch of "Hoops and Yoyo" going on and on ... and on ... about monkeys. They started, and I was like "hey! this is actually hilarious!" and then they went on, and on, and they even went *there* (i.e., referencing what apes are known for doing in the zoo), and then I realized I wasn't watching two cute little creatures aimed at kids but two late thirtysomething men doing their best "hard G"-rated Jimmy Kimmell and Adam Carolla. I kind of liked it a lot.

It will start playing, loudly, when you go to http://www.hoopsandyoyo.com/.

They should concentrate on survival first.

(That's coming from a guy that was clothed, fed and educated by ye olde carde shoppe thanks to two parents working there for a combined total of 44 years.)

joecox — Sun, 18 Apr 2010 21:55:36 -0000

No response from Hallmark? That surprises me.

I think that the crowd sourcing idea coming out of the UK is a good idea. Also seems like it would be awfully easy to rinse and repeat that same idea out of KC.

I'm sure the card business has gotten more "complicated" in the last 5 years or so. Would be interesting to hear what Hallmarks plans are for not only survival but future evolution of the company.

Re: Of Zappos, Twitter, Happiness and Mad Men

Patchchord — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 10:51:32 -0000

If a brand is a construction held in the mind of your consumer, then Zappos has a small brand. General awareness of Zappos outside of the millennial demographic is fairly low, hence the need for more mass efforts.

The digital navel-gazing of social media pundits (myself included) have to be careful when looking at brands built primarily online as it is easy to misjudge their size and potency compared to the really big guys.

Re: KC Area Development Council’s Selective Social Media Adoption

Jason @lockerpartner — Tue, 13 Apr 2010 12:56:09 -0000

Joe, thanks for your great insights, and thank you, Ashlie, for remaining in the discussion.

I think Joe's right that in addition to the C-suite guys, there's a world of young execs who are using social platforms like Twitter and Facebook for seeking out opportunities to expand to places potentially like KC. We should be there to meet them.

Also, the trouble with LinkedIn is that it's not much of a content platform. As Joe points out, you've got all this great stuff on your site already -- social media will help it reach that many more people.

Congrats on the PBS thing -- that's really awesome. But I wouldn't put it in the same category as a social/web2.0 thing, unless it develops some kind of viral life beyond TV and newspapers.

Hey, no disrespect to Don Draper. I love the man for what he is: a big, scary, stuff-selling, brand-building Tyrannosaurus.

I would just point out that Zappos had already built its brand and was successful before it hired a present-day Don. Zappos sold to Amazon for, like, a billion dollars (that's approx. $15,000 in 1963 dollars) last year, before it went with that agency.
