One of the most frustrating or most exciting elements (depending on your viewpoint) of effective social media marketing is the need to constantly keep abreast of changes in the social media tools you are already using as well as of new tools that are continually being introduced.

Now it’s probably impossible for any one person to keep up with and know everything. And this is why we all read info from others we trust — articles and blog posts help us find the news that’s important to us.

I just wrote a post at my company blog on a new Google tool that shows you how much of your home page is seen by people due to different browsers and monitors. I learned about this tool from Penny Sansevieri, whose ezine I always read. (You can read my post at http://budurl.com/gtool )

Another huge news filter are social media sites such as LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter. This is why actively participating in such sites can help our knowledge factor as well as our business connections.

I’m pleased to be writing guest posts here on this blog, and I have also enjoyed being the Twitter marketing expert at www.Site-Booster.com.   I’m now completing my series of 30 posts for www.Site-Booster.com and I’ve used the posts as the basis for “The Wonderful World of Twitter and How It Can Help Promote Your Brand, Book, Cause or Business.” (Click on the ebook cover above if you want to learn more about this ebook.)

Bottom line? I’m thankful to all the people who share their valuable information on the Internet, and I hope that my Twitter followers, my Facebook friends and fans, and my LinkedIn connections also find my information worthwhile.
