Guest Speaker at Association Launch Party
I was one of the guest speakers at the launch of the International Association of Aspiring Authors party held by Jess Kennedy Williams.
Jess sent this email about my participation:
Hi Warren,
You were great on the call last night. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to join us. You were a big hit, and I have a feeling you will be hearing from my members.
I appreciate you and what you do. I look forward to working with you again soon.
Thanks so much! Jess

Connecting Across Social Networks
I’ve been experimenting with a couple of tools that bridge databases to make it easier to reach friends and contacts where they want to be reached.
We’ll have an update on this weeks Social Media Radio Show.. including some stats on what social networks have the best connections and how one site promises to get 43% of your email list to open an email (unheard of on some mailing lists today).
With Facebook opening profiles to the search engines by default, this is going to get easier. I think that soon we’ll be able to talk directly to a contact in exactly the way they want to hear from us.. Text, Tweet, Post or Email. In the mean time, let’s make it easier to show where we want to be reached.
BusinessCard2 is trying to do that. I just updated my entry. You can get your own there free.
Every Thing That Happened is Happening Now
We’ve been talking about the social media changing the speed at which we do business.
I say that when you can get real time information, the value of aged information is greatly reduced. That’s why people like Twitter, Facebook and other social media.
Now Google takes the next natural step with real time results from the social media above the older listings:
Now more than ever, we need to know what our customers, readers, friends, fans and foes are saying about our brand
