Definitions
Google looks “to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful.”
Twitter wants “people to share and discover what’s happening right now, anywhere in the world.”
Facebook “helps you connect and share with the people in your life.”
A sliding scale from anonymous => personal, and from universal => intimate.
There’s Nothing New Under the Sun
Same rules of etiquette and grace apply. Trust your instincts.Listen before you speak.Introduce yourself.
Etiquette
Listen, more than you talk.Don’t talk about religion and politics.Don’t post when you’ve had a drink.Sarcasm doesn’t type well.Sincerity is the most important rule.Don’t play in the sandbox, until you know the rules.
DEVELOPMENT CYCLE
Set GoalsExecuteAssess – survey, reports, commentsAdjustAssess - reports
Interactive is never finished.
GOALS
Be realistic – interactive campaigns can’t fix what’s wrong with a company or product without follow through from the top.
Combine interactive goals with offline goals. It’s not a separate world anymore.
If you build it, you still have to get them to come. Plan for promotion.
EXECUTION
DIY & Free will come off just like it does when you DIY home construction.
Plan the launch, as well as the project.
ASSESS
Random comments from interested folks don’t matter.
Judge based on your goals.
Don’t be afraid to be wrong. And admit it. And modify your plan.

Causes
Multiple feeds – niche, niche, niche. Write evergreen tweets before you start to help fill the void.No necessary, required updating schedule, once a day is a good pace.
Keys to the Kingdom
Trust your instincts.
Stop talking to listen - Get more than you give.
Read, read, read.
