SeaWorld, WordPress and conversations

Social Media Marketing at SeaWorld They put up a WordPress blog and uploaded raw content to Flickr and YouTube. They then worked the online communities focused on roller coasters to get the word out. This article is based on a video podcast by Shel Israel of FastCompany.tv. On one of the panels at WordCamp, we were asked a question that roughly translated to the same one that Shel is trying to get answers for. “How do you measure a conversation?” SeaWorld simply put together a blog and some pictures and videos using tools that are feely available, to generate buzz and conversation amongst ethusiasts they might have normally overlooked. The question in my mind is not how we measure but what we measure as the outcome of a social media marketing strategy and how we know that it is time to measure a particular set of results.

WP Plugin: Flickr Album

WP Plugin: Flickr Album There have been other versions of this plugin floating around but this one caught my eye because the example albums seemed very nicely put together and since I am my best yardstick, I consider this plugin well put together. It even adds a “recent Flickr Photos” on your admin screen when creating a new post in case you want to add one of them to the new post you are writing. PS: I love the tagline: MSG free since 2005

Anil wants Flickr to pay

Anil wants Flickr to pay: Is user generated content worthy of remuneration? In that case, does every site one visits and helps to make popular, owe a part of their revenue to the user? I might be mocking the concept, but micropayments are not just theory anymore and this could be the beginning of something big. I am sure some blog enterpreneur is already hatching up a plot. Would you visit weblogtoolscollection more often and pay closer attention to the content if you were going to receive something in return for doing so?
