Buzzflikr Blogs: Dan’s Pollen Count

FollowFormation has now made it easier to follow the top twitterers in the category of your choosing. In a few steps you can easily and automatically follow 10 – 40 or more twitterers based on the category of your choosing. For instance I just had our Buzzflikr Twitter follow the top 20 “Fashion” twitterers.

Now whatever you are into, there is an easy way to stay up to date and increase your follower counts.

I think it’s a very useful service that will probably evolve into something greater over time.

hey folks,

After taking care of some rolling buzzflikr web server issues its time to have a positive blog post. When issues arise its easier to write about problems than the things you really like that you are working on. Of course there is only so much that can be shared, but hey – thats the nature of the tech job.

Onto my topic of “getting more social.” To start, Buzzflikr just cracked the 1,100 followers mark on Twitter! {follow us!} We’ve been sending out a few tweets a week to highlight a few things around the hive.

Now, moving onto Facebook, we’ve amassed a small fan base of less than 100. We know there are way more of you out there on Facebook, so hop on over and become a fan to get exclusive updates, and check out our other exclusive FB content – http://fb.buzzflikr.com

Now, that is that for the social internet, but what about the classic social? We’re that too! Buzzflikr will be returning to the FOCUS show during market week – June 13 – 15. The Buzzflikr team will be at the CATCH A BUZZ Lounge providing refreshments and complimentary PR, Branding, and IT advice. Put it on your calendars and we’ll see you there!

We’ll also be launching some exciting web features for this June Market… more on that soon!

A few stories broke this week concerning the rapid growth of both Twitter and Facebook. The latest figures put Twitter growing at over 1,300 %… can you believe that!? Facebook has been growing steadily as well and continues to reporting 149% growth in February alone. (as compared to Feb. 2008)

Now, how does this affect you – the brand, marketer, or whatever you may be? GO TO WHERE THE PEOPLE ARE! It make sense right? You want to gain or keep more customers, and social networking reaches out to an active audience that has a higher chance of seeing you than other traditional methods. Creating a Facebook Page [such as fb.buzzflikr.com] taps into the huge audience (175 million active users) that you can constantly reach out to. On the other side, Twitter [tweet.buzzflikr.com] is the micro-blogging revolution that allows ‘followers’ to subscribe to your updates… which turns into X amount of viewers instantaneously.

What I’m trying to say here in so few words is that social networking is a huge new resource to tap into. Twitter and Facebook are just two examples with incredible growth and opportunity right now, but there is a plethora of ways to ‘connect’ in this exciting ‘web 2.0.’ I’ll go over more in future posts.

Don’t know what’s going on here? Contact Buzzflikr and we can help take your PR efforts to the next level. Or just dive right in and get started! Here’s some info on the incredibly helpful Wikipedia: Facebook, Twitter.

Hi everybody! Apologies for the silence but don’t worry, that is all over now! As I’m getting back into high gear blogging… starting with deleting wayyyy too many spam comments I thought I’d let you know about a couple other ways to be a part of the ever expanding Buzzflikr colony.

We have setup a Facebook Page to keep you informed about everything Buzzflikr… including trends, our newsletters and even special FB exclusive content! I also just started up our Buzzflikr Twitter! Now you can follow us and get up to the minute updates in less than 140 characters. If you aren’t on Facebook or Twitter yet, why not join now?

Thanks!
