Here is the latest installment of my almost-weekly roundup of communications-related links you may have missed.
Pinterest
Pinterest
has now added business accounts and tools. Check it out in this post from
Mashable.
GooglePlus
Have
you tried a G+ Hangout yet? Here are some tips for hosting a Q&A session
using this free platform.
Content curation
Curious
about curation? Check out this massive list of curation tools. You
may also be interested in a presentation I led on this topic last year. Amazingly,
more than 11,000 people have viewed these slides. (I’m not sure why!)
HTML5
Shel
Holtz makes a great case for communicators to get familiar with HTML5. Please,
read his post.
Publishing
Everyone
I know is writing a book. So you ALL should read “25 Twitter accounts to help
you get published.”
Public speaking
I like
this list of the 12 most deadly sins of public speaking.
In my opinion, a lack of preparation can lead to the 11 sins that follow #1.
Social media workshop
And
now for a bit of shameless self-promotion … Recently I did a hands-on social media
workshop, and have been asked to present it again. So if you’re in the
Oakville/west of Toronto area, join us on December 1. Details and registration
here.
Fun with a message
I love
the humour in this video, and the brilliance of taking a contentious (to some)
subject and turning it on its side. NOTE: Language likely not safe for work.
If you are reading this by email, click here to see the video.

information about how we can help your organization to tell its story through
