The importance of social media


The development towards a creative economy will have several impacts:

- products and services will become more competitive
- companies will become more competitive
- companies will increase their turnover
- their ability to respond to the needs of the market improves

How to get started with Internet and Social Media?

Why on earth should anybody spend time on Facebook, Twitter, Jaiku, Pownce, MySpace, etc. The foremost reason why people surf the Internet is because they are looking for information. So, if you have a story to tell, a product to sell or a service to promote, go ahead.

Go to this FREE conference to learn more about...

Here is Sarah Palin presented by Zina Saunders.

Gone are the days when all you needed to be on the web was a web site. Today you need to think and act in terms of a total web presence. And that means if you’re not participating in social media, you’re not really online. Consider these highlights from a wonderfully comprehensive research project.

* 73% of online users read a blog

* 57% join social networks

* 45% have started a blog

* 83% have viewed a video online

* 39% subscribe to RSS feeds

* 36% think more positively about companies that have blogs

Testing Slideshare. This is my first presentation. Why did it take so long to get it published? Slideshare is practical and gives us an opportunity to tell stories and share them.

Kai, It was nice to talk with you over a cup of coffee and Tivit Foresight a provided a helicopter view about what is happening on the Finnish innovation scene:

- eInvoice
- The future of Internet
- embedded intelligence (mechanical engineering)
- building automation
- entrepreneurship
- open innovation

Tivit conference was great. I learned a lot of exciting things. Bo Harald made a presentation about electronic invoicing and that opened some new visions for me.

Tivit Seminar in Helsinki. It's about cloud computing, future internet, building automation, flexible services, next media, cooperative traffic, intelligence in devices, realtime economy goes mobile, defining problems instead of solving them.

300 participants
Finnish leading software people
I also comment in Qaiku about the seminar

Got this message from Brightkite. I use it to communicate with the world in pictures. The links are streamed to Flickr, Facebook, Friendfeed, Twitter and some of my blogs.


Howdy gang.

Wanted to let you know some big changes are in the works at Brightkite. We’ve been fast at work on some big upgrades and are preparing to flip the switch on something brand new. The forthcoming 2.0 release includes a plethora of new and improved features (many based on feedback from you!). Stay tuned, be forewarned, changes are a comin…

Surfers in China do their own way. New information suggests China isn't lagging on Internet social networking. They are just innovating differently.

Social networking site Ziaonei allows members to post opinions and comments on each other's personal pages.

Facebook wants a piece of the cake as well. China is the Asia's biggest market.

When it comes to keep in touch with friends IM applications are what people are looking for.

How about MySpace? How big is its user base in China? How well are western style social media sites doing?

Instant communication had a lot of followers in China already in 2007.

The users are younger, more devoted, more addicted to speed and intimacy than the Western counterparts.

Web commerce is growing. Instant mobile messaging is a growth industry. The low proportion of home PCs has made the mobile phone the preferred Internet-access device.

The average age of China's 172 million Internet users was 35 years at the end of 2007 and seven years younger than their 211 million American counterpart at the comparable time.

Americans go to Internet to search information.

Chinese go to seek entertainment.

Juha, that sounds great. It's good that PMEU gets publicity and you're the right person to tell what the "mini-fermentor" can do for the good of pulp and paper industry.

I will soon visit a big pulp & paper conference by PIRA in Barcelona, Spain (14.-15.10.2009; welcome!) and have an oral presentation about the paper industry applications of PMEU "mini-fermentor".

What was interesting in this conference is the late replacement of the first conference day, 13.10.2009, by an Internet-mediated meeting. This helps to avoid too high travelling and participation cost, definitely, but will also open an new type of forum for this kind of specialists' conferences. Maybe the count of participants also will be higher in this way.

I have an idea (to be presented in my Development Project, included in my international teacher studies) to move some parts of my professional microbiology courses into the net. I have discussed about this idea in my school as well as a very trained teacher, applying Internet in her job, Dr. Leena Suominen, working for Helsinki University.

Teaching can be transfered into net but some problems have to be solved. First of all: what will be the site where all educational activities will take place? Shall it be some common media highway like Facebook, or should all educational institutes and companies have their own portal for students? High schools and vocational high scools already supply such forums for their students, but commercial training companies very seldom arrange such tools for their customers.

Another question is the usage of time for studies. If some person will join a course, paid by her/his company, is she/he ready to use free hours on evenings and weekends to prepare the homeworks? What are the opinions of the bosses to use working hours for learning in Internet?

If anyone has any experiences about net-deviated education, I would be very pleased to hear them!
