8 Key Take-Aways from the 140 Characters Conference
Posted by goodmind on April 22nd, 2010
I’ve spent the last day attempting to digest all that I heard and saw at the #140conf on 4/20/10. Below is just a snapshot of my tweets attempting to keep up:
8 key take-aways I’d like to highlight:
1. When thinking about whether or not to use social media for your business, think of the ROI as the “returning on ignoring” -@JeffreyHayslett CMO, Kodak
2. School is real life, not the preparation for real life – we need to rethink education or “school 2.0″ -@chrislehmann Principal, Science
Leadership Academy
3. Think about how your actions online affect the “Hive Mind” (collective consciousness) -@carr2n Writer, NY Times
4. We’re moving from “shouting & selling” to “sharing & helping” – “collabetition” -@hankwasaik Ad Guy, The Concept Farm
5. Everybody’s opinions don’t matter – it’s about building communities you care about -@jessicagottlieb Mom, Blogger
6. Location is that last piece of information people are scared to give away – how do we get past this? What do people get for “checking in”? -@cc_chapman, @dens, @jw
7. Twitter teaches you a new behavior of efficiency -@mchammer
8. Sharing is NOT creepy it’s natural – and everyone has a public life, private life & secret life and that’s OK. We’re not lying online – it’s a network of identities -@stoweboyd
Looking forward to next year! Each of the individual sessions from #140conf NYC are available here.
Please share your take-aways in the comments.
