			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just came from another great event by <a href="http://www.meetup.com/third-tuesday-calgary/" target="_blank">Third Tuesday Calgary</a> this time hosting Julien Smith, co-author of <a href="http://www.trustagent.com/" target="_blank">Trust Agents</a> (Chris Brogan and Julien Smith). Those who missed it, missed a lot. Below are the notes for those who attended, let's compare!</p> <ul> <li>Hype vs. channel: hype dies, channel is forever</li> <li>Controlling future is about controlling a channel</li> <li>Channels used to be one-way, now it's both ways</li> <li>A channel starts from a network</li> <li>Channel: a tube you use to communicate with members of your network (my understanding, I may be wrong).</li> <li>Channel examples: Twitter, YouTube Channel, Facebook Fan Page</li> <li>Channel example (specific): <a href="http://twitter.com/ShitMyDadSays" target="_blank">ShitMyDadSays</a></li> <li>$50,000 / year example: great example, also referenced in <a href="http://zagoumenov.com/marketing-book-reviews/reality-check-guy-kawasaki-short-marketing-book-review/" target="_blank">Guy Kawasaki's Reality Check</a>: on average $50,000 / year is enough to live in North America. Anything beyond that should not (hypothetically) make you happier.</li> <li>Social Networks and happiness. The closer you are to the centre of your network, the happier you are.</li> <li>Over time networks dissipate, so one should build tribes continuously.</li> <li>Laughter takes walls away; at work and at home. Laugh.</li> <li>Social capital = puzzle piece of the game</li> <li>Facilitate the exchange of social capital</li> <li>Reliability is huge. Be consistent with your content. </li> <li>Create content that's visible and indexable.</li> <li>Insiders vs. outsiders of a social neighbourhood.</li> <li>Insider language. Example: Sprite commercial ;)</li> <li>Differentiation: Blue Ocean Strategy</li> <li>Pattern breaking. Example: <a href="http://www.cirquedusoleil.com/" target="_blank">Cirque Du Soleil</a></li> <li>Do something different.</li> <li>What can be measured can be sold.</li> <li>Book reference: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Connected-Surprising-Power-Social-Networks/dp/0316036145/" target="_blank">Connected by Nicholas A. Christakis</a>.</li> <li>Be the lead goose.</li> </ul> <p>For those who could not attend, you can catch Julien on his Canadian tour. More about the tour and the author:</p> <ul> <li>The next event is <a href="http://cindystephenson.wordpress.com/2010/01/03/julien-smith-to-speak-at-victorias-social-media-club-january-20th/" target="_blank">on Wednesday in Victoria</a>. </li> <li>See Julien's site: <a href="http://inoveryourhead.net/" target="_blank">InOverYourHead</a>. </li> <li>Julien is talking (podcast): <a href="http://inoveryourhead.mevio.com/">http://inoveryourhead.mevio.com/</a></li> <li>Alternatively, feel free to buy <a href="http://www.trustagent.com/" target="_blank">the book</a>.
