Great pointers I think we are all guilty of some of these, but like you said as long as we learned from our mistakes. I think one important point you brought up was to have a crisis plan. This is almost as important has finding bad reviews. <a href="http://www.chatmeter.com" rel="nofollow">chatmeter</a> brings the reviews to you and we feel that not responding to a negative review is very damaging.

Comment on Scoop.It: The Topic-Centric Curation Tool by Anonymous http://www.toprankblog.com/2011/10/scoop-it/#comment-548845 Anonymous Wed, 07 Dec 2011 01:41:00 +0000 http://www.toprankblog.com/?p=12902#comment-548845 Great Article, thanks! I'm having a problem curating: I get around to approving items ever 3 or 5 days and usually have 100 to 150 items to work with. Scoop.it is currently ordered with the newest item on the top of the stack, I'd rather work from the bottom up so my posts would be chronologically logical in order. Any suggestions?  Note: as an example, Flickr allows you to order a set of images from the oldest to the newest or the reverse. I prefer to have the latest photographs pop up first for viewers. Thank you for your advice and time. Great Article, thanks!

Many people/organizations are trying to figure out a role for social media in their overall communication mix. I recently authored a blog post that raises 6 questions you should answer before plunging into a major investment in social media. I think it compliments what you wrote fairly well.

Value for business comes in many forms and I think it makes sense to measure whatever is most important. In the case of return on investment and impact on influence - both are worth measuring.

There are right and wrong ways to do this, so this totally worth sharing. One thing I'll add: DON'T believe the 'free' myth; DO understand that social, done right, will take an investment of time, work and money. (Which is where #8 and #9 come in, the strategy and ROI).
