I did a quick tour of different social media tools and platforms (Facebook, Twitter, Google + and so on) so people can get a better sense of the tools out there. Social media tools from cammybean. It's not click a button or do this menu but the step might be "identify your frame of reference/target market.").

We have to be so careful of how we project our identity through social media. These tools we use are both personal and social. All of these tools are available: twitter, fb, youtube, instagram, linkedin… The more people you connect to, the more noise there is, but your friends help you filter it out.

Teenagers on Twitter, Instagram, with millions of followers. But this has gotten messier now with social media. We see people on social networks connected with people who are MOST LIKE THEM. Go through your Twitter. Make sure your network on twitter is full of different voices. Coding Freedom [link]. –

So whats changed in the past two years with the rise of social media tools? Formal Learning I was looking through my blog recently, finding some old nuggets from my early days (which was all of two years ago!) This post stood out: DIY vs. Formal Learning. Are more people doing it themselves? Is the economy pushing that change?

Tom Werner, Chief Research Officer, Brandon Hall [link] LMSs are adding social features – including RSS feeds, peer ratings of content. Social media communities can now create communities for external learners – customers, resellers, technicians. More content can be created by more contributors. What considerations?

A few weeks ago I did a very informal query on Twitter, asking people what were their favorite eLearning brands. If I just take content creation and social media perspective - then why only Ning and what Google is doing there. Just remember, my "survey" was highly unscientific and represented one afternoons chatter on Twitter.

Now I stop first at Twitter. Tweetdeck Im officially hooked to Twitter and use Tweetdeck to organize and group those I follow. Not only is Twitter great for the occasional laugh, but also a great source of information and links. Ask your Twitter network! My best column: eLearning, of course! Have a question?

Measurement myths Technology is key to learning success (we must use elearning, social media, video etc. -- nothing else is effective). Experienced workers dont need training. Learning development is easy and can be shortened or short-changed. Learning designs dont need to specifically minimize forgetting (enable remembering).

The bonus of so many of the social media tools we use is that our pictures are attached. It was a bit disconcerting at first. I had to keep staring at each of them hard as I replaced my old pictures. Unexpected beards. Its nice to know who youre really talking to.

Much of what I learn feeds right into these changes we see in the industry with the focus on informal learning and social media. I focused on Communities of Practice and learned quite a bit. Would I hire someone with a degree in ID over someone else? Id lean more towards practical experience and examples of good work.

I would expect that we will find people who dont actively participate in social media to hit a ceiling before non-gamers do though. They are Gen Y, and probably in the 57% of people considered "joiners" in the often-cited Forrester Research chart. The idea of the Guild Master ceiling is an intriguing one, I admit.
