It’s been a rough few weeks with personal family issues going on and today was another kick in the pants. But I’m always looking forward to sharing what I Didn’t Read While Hard at Work so let’s get on with it!

- “Social Media Smackdown: WWE Headlocks Social Media (Case Study)” by Casey Hibbard – This is a fascinating article. Many companies can only dream of having a fan base this active and engaged! What do you think the WWE is doing right? Is it just the nature of WWE fans to be engaged? How can you repurpose these ideas for your company/clients?
- Google Me a “Facebook Killer”? Place Your Bets! By Mike Melanson – Agree or disagree? I don’t think it will take off, but that’s just me. And if you think Facebook has privacy issues, well….
- Time to Do Everything but Think by Gail Liebl – While it’s great to be connected, and I don’t think I’d survive without my cell phone, we should take a step back from time to time. “Take a second to reach out to someone on the other end of the phone…. Take time to let your creativity flow in its purest, unfiltered form, and perhaps capture someone’s interest as well as ear. And be sure, most of all, to put ‘think’ onto your everything list.”
- “Top Ten Signs You’re Drinking your Own Kool-Aid When Pitching Bloggers” by Valeria Maltoni – I’ve heard some of these tips before, but it’s always nice to be reminded. Plus, these are super helpful!
- [VIDEO] “Can Twitter help land you a job?” – The video is fairly interesting, using a “case study” and talking with the CEO of a Twitter feed that posts job opportunities. And it’ll only take two minutes of your time.
