Public trusts social media more than traditional media
53% of voters said they used social networking sites like Twitter and Facebook to follow politics because they felt the information was more reliable than what they received through traditional news
media.
Pew found 21% of adult Internet users said they used social networking sites, from Facebook to Twitter and MySpace to find out who their friends were voting for, get candidate information, post
comments, ‘friend’ candidates and campaigns, and take part in group causes.
“Everybody learned from the Obama campaign in 2008 that social media can be an effective tool to contact and galvanize voters.”
- Lee Rainie, lead researcher and director of the Pew Internet & American Life Project

LinkedIn increases social advertising options
Source: http://www.socialtimes.com/2011/01/linkedin-allows-advertisers-to-target-by-job-title-age-group/
LinkedIn, has released new features, that allows advertisers on the professionally focused social network
to target users based on their job title, age group, the company that they work for, and the LinkedIn group to
which they belong. This would allow marketers to target users more accurately.
Facebook already has a huge lead in banner advertisement over other social networks, partly because it was the first to allow advertisers to target users based on their interests, gender, location, relationship status, and
likes etc.
According to comScore, these features have enabled Facebook to gain a massive foothold in display
advertising, with one out of every four display ads on Internet being served by Facebook in Q3 of 2010.

Are you a part of the Safe Breath Alliance?
Source: http://www.facebook.com/Dentyne
Dentyne’s Safe Breath Alliance campaign is part of a television-Facebook campaign
featuring celebrity Marlon Wayans. Part of the campaign is a game, Pop N’Play,
that revolves around a virtual pack of Dentyne gum.
In order to play the game users must enter their name, address, phone number and email to register, then they choose a
piece of gum in a virtual Dentyne pack, and if they choose a winning piece, may win a
prize.
This is an interesting tactic because it allows for continued engagement during
the two months the game runs.

appearing in their photo albums with the person’s name tagged.

Create a Youtube Schedule
“It’s really important to stick to a schedule because sometimes YouTube messes up there subscription box and people who are
subscribed to you don’t get your videos, or whatever. So if people are coming back every Tuesday, every Thursday or
every day then you get that real audience.”- Joe Penna (aka MysteryGuitarMan)
At Tubefilter’s ‘Secrets of YouTube Superstars’ panel at CES earlier this month YouTube Partners discussed their success & the importance of scheduling their uploads.
