Four Trends at once: Mashable "Follow" and Liquid Internet, via Multiple Twitter Accounts | Revelnnovation

Mashable_follow_video_blog_2011
This YouTube video hits 4 EMERGING TRENDS right on the nose:
  • Custom experience:
    • What you see on your Facebook page, via your Google page, etc. adapts to your interests - I agree it is COOL not creepy.

  • Social Media integration:
    • Facebook posts to twitter,  twitter embeds in your Wordpress website via a twitter widget, YouTube embeds there too...

  • Video :
    • iPhone, HD video on cameras, getting easier to use all the time) and

  • The social media platform YouTube:
    • A thing, a platform, a trend 2nd only to Facebook as a trend.  Have you seen the movie?

I'll explain why Mashable's "Follow" video is a great trend setting via the four bullets above with the rest of my posts below, using my multiple twitter accounts because:

1)  I want to see if my tweets carry the message

2)  I'm wanting to prove to myself at least, I know what I'm doing with those multiple twitter accounts.

3)  I want to share my excitement and passion about what's emerging with social media:  community and connection and transparency = authentic voice, and

4)  I want to share my love of video, with tools and the YouTube platform that make it easier and easier.   (iPad2 video editing, iPhone capture, HD cameras as small as can be.)

The impetus for all this was via the WCCC Business to Business Expo, 2011, yesterday.    I was happy to meet @AstralRoad1 Founder Rich Fahle, formerly in Marketing with Borders & on the ground floor with the EXPLOSION of video. He was on a panel and also presented a video session.  Stay tuned, there will be more to come!

Custom internet also comes through applications like this via twitter tweets sent to me on my business twitter account @RevelnConsults:

RT @RevelnConsults: Trends: Integration Liquid Internet adaptation to your interests Agree it's really cool, not creepy. #b2bexpo

I'll now demonstrate playing with the niches of my four twitter personas via discussing my learning per Rich Fahle @ AstralRoad and Astral Road Brand Media 

My Four Twitter personas talk about Trends circa 2011: 
 

1.  My RevelnCoaches persona, my newest, ties to my Social Media for Coaches, Consultants and Small Business Owners (a new LinkedIn open group) that launched in January 2011 and is taking off like a horse with its tail on fire.

“@RevelnConsults: It's about authenticity. Be real. #b2bexpo Social Media Panel @AstralRoad1”. #SMCC1

The new teleclass in Social Media has filled to max via word of mouth and my on-line info, helped by my basic skills in video, starting with iPhone videos that evolved to HD video  (my brand new teleclass page with my story) using my new Lumix video camera (the size of the iPhones stacked on each other, that I carry it in my purse).

2.  My more informal @dnrevel persona, is my oldest.  I engage in more banter here.  I sometimes challenge my community connections from time to time, all in the spirit of community.  I believe conflict is neutral, is BEST handled NOT in social media.  I've experienced it two times in twitter in ways I think were less than helpful or genuine, more ego driven.  If there's fun, banter, the occasional conflict or exploration of something very new, , @dnrevel may be the persona on the scene.

Rich Fahle Formerly of Borders. #b2bexpo @AstralRoad1#SMCC1 video-commerce.org Also E-books, disruption. Sourcebooks is small & nimble.

 

3. My business persona is @RevelnConsults.   I use the @RevelnConsults feed on my Reveln Consulting Wordpress website.   RC had a bit to say about my video experience with @AstralRoad1 's presentation yesterday.  I was so glad I stayed & attended Rich's late afternoon session.  It was very worthwhile!

Video is premium delivery for authenticity. SEO loves video. Tell your story, naturally. 65% recall rate. #b2bexpo @AstralRoad1 #SMCC1

 

Note the different sources I use for my tweeting above, Facebook and my iPad.   I'm actually tweeting this blog post from Facebook and integrating it onto my front page website at the same time.

 

 

4.  My special niche for my business consulting is Change Management.  Therefore I tweet from @ChangeTools.   Ron is a business partner who tweets from @ChangeResults.    I like his title better.  Too bad I can't steal it.  :-)

USING MULTIPLE TWITTER accounts:

I will sometimes retweet myself, attempting to do it at different times, per @CharlieCurve's good recommendations.  I've posted his video below about using multiple twitter accounts well.  Lesson learned!!  Charlie's videos are a GREAT example of how to use video well!

 

And here's @CharlieCurve's video on using multiple twitter accounts:
