A manually created link post…

It appears that the automated plugin isn’t quite working correctly, so here’s an authentically manual list:

Twittermaven: The Invisible Twitterman: Or how one man’s shameless self-promotion appears to be generating a similar response to Magpie adding adverts to tweets. “First Facebook, now Twitter. The Powerful Promoter, Matt Bacak, has taken himself to the top of the social media networks yet again, this time beating out 99.9% of the fastest growing site’s members”

Except it turns out that actually he hasn’t.

DownloadSquad: A few days later, a better notifier: Ding, It’s Up: A new service which will let you register a site which is currently down, and then Tweet you when it’s back online.

Wikinomics: Keep your plants healthy (or alive) with Twitter’s help: The perfect way for your spouse or partner to make sure they get back from a vacation to find all their beloved greenery hasn’t withered away. For $99 , a plant can send you Tweets such as “Water me, please!”.

Logic + Emotion: Can you retweet that:

Three thousand words worth of pictures – at least

I’ve been a fan of the ‘cartoons on the back of business cards’ work of Hugh MacLeod for a long time, often using the examples of his work and blog to try and inspire other people.

He was soon joined at some unspecified point by David Armano’s ‘visual thinking’ on Logic + Emotion, whose genius has livened up many of my presentations with slides that sum up social media in eloquent visuals.

But somehow I’d missed out on Tom Fishburne until I caught 10 questions with him on Church of the Consumer yesterday. I then spent longer than intended taking a look at a huge range of great marketing related cartoons at www.tomfishburne.com. My discovery ties into his Virtual Post2Post book tour to promote his latest work, This One Time, At Brand Camp.

Personally, I think his next move should be poster version I could hang around the office (Please forgive the dodgy resizing for my central blog column, and click to see the original in context):
