This piece from Trendwatching contains some very valuable information about the future of business and how you can stay relevant by staying informed. Here are some of the highlights that caught my attention: Mega-trend of transparency in 2013? **Brands must move from 'having nothing to hide' to pro-actively showing and proving they have nothing to hide. **The perfect storm of consumers' ever-greater lust for NEWISM and niches, the expectation of (instantly!) getting jut the right product, ongoing eco-concerns and the desire for more interesting stories will all combine with the spread of new local manufacturing technologies such as: *3D-printing and make-on-demand, to trigger a resurgence in domestic manufacturing in established markets in 2013 Mobile Moments **in 2013, consumers will look to their mobile devices to maximize absolutely every moment, multi-if-not-hypertasking their experiences, purchases and communications... Eco Trend for 2013 **Rather than being discarded or even recycled (by someone else), these products can be given back to nature to grow something new, with all the eco-status and eco-stories Selected by Jan Gordon covering: "Curation, Social Business and Beyond" Read full article here: [http://bit.ly/Vkmo1j]

We all hear the benefits of blogging touted throughout the blogosphere. Heck, if you haven’t heard any of the so-called benefits, Jeff Bullas has written up 10 of them, any one of which is enough to convince me.
Today, however, I want to focus on one very specific benefit (not on Bullas’ list): A blog serves as the hub of your content marketing wheel.
As the hub of your wheel, all other content marketing efforts radiate out from the blog and shoot back into the blog.... Via Jeff Domansky, Martin (Marty) Smith

Agree with Jeff. Love the analogy and the conclusion. I use Scoop.it as my hub because the feedback loops are faster. In my case, extending the analogy a little painfully, one wheel fires with Scoop.it in the hub and some of those "firings" are transferred over to the blog.

Totally agree with you Marty on time factor and it's getting tougher all the time. Scoop it has a very quick feedback loop as you say.

Business-to-business social media marketing has always been a harder nut to crack than its business to consumer counterpart. A new study suggests that a refusal to embrace new social channels might be one reason why.
While more B2B marketers are using social media sites than ever before, Facebook (83 percent), Twitter (80 percent) and LinkedIn (80 percent) are far and away the platforms of choice for the majority of brands, with YouTube (61 percent) and Google+ (39 percent) rounding out the top five. Pinterest is used by just one in four B2B marketers (26 percent), and Instagram less than one in ten (7 percent). Via Lauren Moss, roberto toppi

I selected this piece by Matt Ridings from SideraWorks because we all talk about social business but what is it, why should we care, how do we measure it and why is it important for our business?
This piece along with a slideshare answers some of these questions and gives you a mindset and framework to work with.
Here are some highlights:
What is Social Business?
**The answer differs if you're describing the purpose, the processes or the outcomes - Depending on your point of view as the customer, the employee or a partner - the answer can differ even more
Here is a definition of social business:
Social busines is the creation of an organization that is optimized to benefit the entire ecosystem. Customers, employees, partners, owners by embedding collaboration and active engagment into its operations and culture. The result is a more responsive, adaptable, effective and untimately more successful company.
Here are some of the challenges:
**How do we develop a common vocabulary and context so] that all parties have a clear understanding of what it is they're trying to achieve or become?
**How to 'audit' something like culture to the degree that you can provide a meaningful representationn of its curfrent attributes at individual, group anad organization - wide levels?
**How do you represent the objective in a way that is easily understood in relation to the audit?

Add this to advances in context and authorship and the fun has already started.
Zoekmachines - en Google - voorop gaan de context van zoektermen steeds beter begrijpen, zodat gebruikers betere en op hun situatie (plek, voorkeuren) toegespitste resultaten krijgen. Omdat het daarbij om de zogeheten 'big data' draait, is onder meer het gebruik van Google+ belangrijk voor Google.
Kort gezegd gaat het betekenen dat zoekwoord 'pizza' niet leidt naar allerhande recepten websites, maar naar de Italiaan om de hoek.
