What I like best about the new communication tools we lump together as “social media” is serendipitous connections. Earler today, I met a Tampa storyteller because a Maryland real estate agent and I were using Twitter in the same moment of time.
Nice, simple Twitter connections. Friendly Twitter chats.
A few minutes later my friend Charity Hisle, a multi-family property marketing specialist raised a question on Twitter about bloggers who don’t promote email subscriptions on their site. Charity prefers to follow her favorite bloggers using email instead of rss. In my effort to be helpful to one of her followers, I discovered a simple tool Charity might find useful. (Maybe you will too if you prefer email subscriptions over rss subscriptions.)
Then I found a powerful article by Valeria Maltoni in my blog reader. I felt compelled to share her thoughts within my social networks — business and personal. Valeria shares the social connections leading to the video clip embedded here.
Idea generation for uncovering career opportunities
More importantly — and why I felt inspired to spread the word — Valeria offered 50 ways to make limoncello when you’ve been laid off. Which reminded me of my delightful conversation with my new friend, the Tampa storyteller.
