Did your nicely stacked wall of communications bricks
come crumbling down this week? No matter. Build it up again with my finds of the week, shared via
@dontgetcaught on Twitter and curated here just for you. I think you're a brick, anyway:
- Writing off the wall: WhatsApp--the messaging app owned by Facebook that lets you message people for free all over the world--reached 900 million users. And in other messaging news, Facebook Messenger now tops YouTube in popularity as an app.
- The wall of defense: Facebook has analyzed posts and comments to share what users think about their National Football League teams, just in time for kickoff.
- Handmade brick: Pencils. You remember them, don't you? Here's a good case study of an entrepreneur who has a pencil storefront and web business, and how she uses social media and her website to promote and sell a niche product.
- Wall of sound: Think I'll be using this on and for my public speaking blog: The Times of London has a new tool you can use to easily detect and capture quotes from a video.
- I invented bricks: You didn't know this, but Porter Novelli says it created social marketing/media.
- Pile on the bricks: Here's a smart article on how to use neuromarketing to make Facebook ads and posts more engaging, with a hat tip to Nancy Harhut for the pointer.
- New bricks: A new study suggests that Twitter users are more avid consumers of news than users of other social networks.
- Another brick in the wall: This week, I shared details about my two upcoming workshops on Creating a TED-quality Talk, headed for Washington, DC, in January. You'll get the best discount if you register by October 30, and seats are already filling, so sign up now.
