This is continued from our series of videos on Facebook Fan Pages. If you missed our seminar, what we presented was based on this blog post from a few weeks ago: Facebook: Friend, Fan or Group?

Rose is a key QuickBooks resource for her customers, but she’s looking to move beyond a traditional role as a bookkeeper and connecting with her customers in the social media realm.

Linking in to LinkedIn Effectively
LinkedIn was one of the first social networking tools that I ever joined online. The concept was simple: you know people, those people know people, and maybe, just maybe, a connection of yours might know someone who can help you with a particular problem.

I tried it because I am hopeful that it will help me to write shorter posts for when I’m on the go or for when I just don’t have time to sit at my computer to write this stuff.
Based on my first impressions, I’m not sure it will help.
The idea is sound: create a mobile blogging platform for people on the go. And the app has access to the more important functions of your blog. But if you’re expecting something that will let you write a full-fledged post with pictures, you’ll be disappointed.
