here really aren’t that many blogs that focus exclusively on social media monitoring, but here are 5 others that do, or at least frequently post about social media listening and PR measurement issues:
- WebMetricsGuru.com – Marshall Sponder’s analytics blog where he frequently posts his reviews and views on social media monitoring tools and services, plus general insights on how the tools work (or should work), influence analysis, sentiment detection, data accessibility and how to measure social media ROI.
- The Net-Savvy Executive – Probably the best researched social media monitoring expert on the planet, Nathan Gilliatt has spent recent years testing and reviewing all of the top social media monitoring solutions. His blog is a must-read for anyone serious about monitoring. You can buy his excellent reports here).
- Our Social Times – This is my socia media marketing blog, but I’ve been writing about social media monitoring there for a couple of years and written reviews of the 9 monitoring and measurement conferences I’ve hosted in the UK, US and France over that period. Lots of reviews of social media monitoring tools and pointers for the uninitiated.
- Philip Sheldrake - One of the UK’s most experienced PR experts (and an all-round splendid fellow), Philip was recently featured in David Meerman-Scott’s book Real-time Marketing and PR. His blog, though not frequent, is an important read if you’re into PR measurement.
- Social Media Explorer – Jason Falls covers topics beyond monitoring, but he’s one of the few generalists that has genuine insight and knowledge about social media monitoring. Check out his monitoring category for some useful pointers.
wiki
What is a wiki?
A wiki is a very simple webpage that can be edited by multiple users – the most famous example is Wikipedia, an encyclopaedia which is continuously written and rewritten by web users all over the world. Most wikis are on a far smaller scale and can be used to fulfil a wide range of different tasks or projects in the classroom whether your aim is to push information out to students and parents, encourage students to work collaboratively on a project – or a bit of both.
what can a wiki do for you?
Well there are number of things I could list here but I’d say that the headlines are that a wiki can be used to:
- Organise information and make it easily accessible
- Share ideas and resources
- Foster collaborative and group work with your students
- Encourage independent and learner-led learning and
- Develop easy home-school links
- What can I use a wiki for with my class?
So let’s get down to brass tacks. What EXACTLY can you use a class wiki for. I thought the best way to tell you this was to show you some examples. But remember, the only limit on this is your imagination.

Photo sharing is the publishing or transfer of a user's digital photos online, thus enabling the user to share them with others (publicly or privately). This function is provided through both websites and applications that facilitate the upload and display of images. The term can also be loosely applied to the use of online photo galleries that are set up and managed by individual users, including photoblogs. Sharing means that other users can view but not necessarily download the photos, users being able to select different copyright options.
The first photo sharing sites originated during the mid to late 1990s primarily from services providing online ordering of prints (photo finishing), but many more came into being during the early 2000s with the goal of providing permanent and centralized access to a user's photos, and in some cases video clips too. Webshots, SmugMug, Yahoo! Photos and Flickr were among the first. This has resulted in different approaches to revenue generation and functionality among providers.
While photoblogs tend only to display a chronological view of user-selected medium-sized photos, most photo sharing sites provide multiple views (such as thumbnails and slideshows), the ability to classify photos into albums, as well as add annotations (such as captions or tags) and comments. Some photo sharing sites, even small ones with only a few million photos, provide complete online organization tools equivalent to desktop photo management applications.
Desktop photo management applications may include their own photo-sharing features or integration with sites for uploading images to them. There are also desktop applications whose sole function is sharing photos, generally using peer-to-peer networking. Basic photo sharing functionality can be found in applications that allow you to email photos, for example by dragging and dropping them into pre-designed templates.
Photo sharing is not confined to the web and personal computers, but is also possible from portable devices such as camera phones, using applications like Streamzoo that can automatically transfer photos as you take them, to photo sharing sites and photoblogs, either directly or via MMS. Some cameras now come equipped with wireless networking and similar sharing functionality themselves.
MicRobloGs !!!
Microblogging is a broadcast medium in the form of blogging. A microblog differs from a traditional blog in that its content is typically smaller in both actual and aggregate file size. Microblogs "allow users to exchange small elements of content such as short sentences, individual images, or video links". These small messages are sometimes called microposts.
As with traditional blogging, microbloggers post about topics ranging from the simple, such as "what I'm doing right now," to the thematic, such as "sports cars." Commercial microblogs also exist, to promote websites, services and/or products, and to promote collaboration within an organization.
Some microblogging services offer features such as privacy settings, which allow users to control who can read their microblogs, or alternative ways of publishing entries besides the web-based interface. These may include text messaging, instant messaging, E-mail, or digital audio.
