Abstrakt:

Information is escaping from the printed page into the wilds of internet's social media. Conversations on Twitter and Facebook, videos on YouTube, camera phone photos on Flickr, blog posts, comments on blog posts, podcasts, news reports uploaded from "citizen journalists," discussions in FriendFeed rooms, and profiles at LinkedIn, if properly accessed and analyzed, can provide valuable information on competitors and market trends. Social media can also give insights into how customers regard your enterprise and your products, including what university students think about their library. We are living in a vastly more transparent world. The challenges, however, are equally vast. Determining the best approach to finding, evaluating, analyzing, and using information from social media, when the tools frequently lack stability and when "gaming the system" is rampant, can discourage people from attempting to include social media in their CI toolbox. To ignore social media, however, is dangerous. This session will explore practical methodologies for using social media for CI and for reputation monitoring.
