A social media focus group in the 99-year old home of the Red Sox

Anyone who reads this blog regularly can attest to my passion for social media and for exploring ways companies can leverage these technologies to better interact with their customers. What you may not know is that I am also a huge Red Sox fan. So when I got an invitation from the Boston Red Sox…

Putting up a Steel Curtain on Social Media

This post originally ran on PR Breakfast Club, but I wanted to share with you in case you missed it over there. A few weeks back, pundits noted that Twitter had its moment. The 140-character service was on fire with tweets mentioning the death of Osama Bin Laden at a rate that traditional news outlets…

Will Social Media dub Brady or Vick MVP?

A funny thing about popularity contests is that there can be only one winner. Friends, families and coworkers can be set into heated shouting matches pulling for their candidate, player or horse. So it’s been pretty entertaining watching the heated debates on the NFL’s MVP for the 2010 season with opinions from everyone from armchair…
