Just came across a brilliant 25 Mind Blowing Social Media Infographics presentation, which captures the state of social media through visuals.
What is your take?.
There are thousands of presentations on “social media” but there are five absolute must read presentations if you are interested in understanding this space and leveraging the best practices.
1. Why people are called the “New Medium”? : The new trusted media in the world is - You + Your friends + Their friends.
2. Social Media : Evolution or Revolution? - Why everybody is talking about it.
3. Introduction to Social Media - understanding the basics of new media platforms.
4. What the F**K is Social Media : Noise vs Signal? - In social media think about conversations not campaigns.
5. Social Media ROI : Measuring the Essential? - You cannot manage it if you can’t measure.
I have visited so many corporate website’s, can’t remember the exact count may be in the order of thousands but my best one was not from any of this traditional sites built with cutting edge technologies instead a video website made by BooneOakley using Youtube platform.
What could be the perfect example of thinking out of box for building a complete corporate website as a video by leveraging the Youtube annotations support to make it just as ease to use as a traditional website for navigation.There are millions of videos worth watching on Youtube but this one standout as it represents a complete corporate identify of a marketing agency represented as a visual story and in fact they don’t have any traditional website like rest of the crowd.
Below is a snippet of the post from Youtube Blog on this video:
At YouTube we often talk about the creative opportunities online video presents marketers and agencies to tell their story in unique and powerful new ways. But only rarely do we see these creatives fully utilize the flexibility in design that video experiences provide.
What is your take? - isn’t this pure awesomeness?. I love it :).
