How are we going to cope with the Buzz?

03022010167

Time, not the sky, is the limit for people using social media. The new Google Buzz is trying cut into our daily life and attract us to spend more time Buzzing.

As a result, this means less time for Facebook, Twitter and many less populated social medias.

We still need some time to take care of our daily works and even traditional emails.

Time management is becoming an issue again. Mobile tools makes it possible to socialize while on the move, but there is still a limit to all of this.

Working with new things: social capital

The most common excuse I hear about business blogging is that entrepreneurs and CEO's don't have the time to do it.

The second most common is that they don't like to write.

How about you? Have you established a regular blogging routine? If not, what are your excuses? Are they valid?

The relationship of business communication to financial success is strong.

Many may find financial success without social media or blogging but things will change in the future.

What does Ivan Misner write about social capital?

Most entrepreneurs know the meaning of financial capital, but many may not have a clear idea of social capital.

Social capital is accumulated by an individual or a business and is used, or is available for use, in the production of wealth.

Social capital is about the accumulation of resources developed through personal and professional networks. We accumulate social capital through networking.

These resources include:
  1. ideas,
  2. knowledge,
  3. information,
  4. opportunities,
  5. contacts and,
  6. of course, referrals.
Just what do we need to keep in mind when thinking about building our social capital? We learn by talking and interacting with people.

According to Wayne Baker, “Success is social; all the ingredients of success that we customarily think of as individual-talent, intelligence, education, effort and luck-are intertwined with networks.”
