Favorite Finds
Fiascoes,
folly and fun. This week our tweets rode a rollercoaster of mishaps, controversy
and surprises in the social and traditional media spheres. Here’s a recap of our
favorite finds:
- Hold the
Dock: In a
sly, space saving move, Apple is rumored to have changed the pin-port on
its latest iPhone, meaning the new model won’t
dock on what you’ve got. Are all of
your favorite Apple-friendly accessories doomed to go the way of the tape
player?
- You’ve Got
Facemail: Whether you want it or not. The social media giant converted users to an @facebook.com email address this week to “give users a choice.” Feeling
like you didn’t have a choice? Click here for tips on how to switch
back.
- Reporter
Relations: Our top tip
this week for ethical PR: practice good reporter relations, not reporter
impersonations. Read how the
latter backfired for a Walmart PR firm this week here.
- Human
Relations: The Today
Show and LCWA agree – knowing when and how to use email is important. We loved their feature on “When and How to Talk to a
Human” and if
you need more encouragement to drop email for face-to-face time, check out
our Research Group’s “Stop Bad Email” report.
- Manly
Relations: Looking for a testosterone-filled version of Pinterest? Check out Dudepins, DartitUp, manteresting or
any of the new male-focused social spin offs trending this week.
