I have much fun testing mobile device for #crowdsourcing #content delivered in real-time #in

I'll flicker them in a few minutes.

J'ai la tête en feu.

J’écrivais le 21 septembre dernier :

I’ve been blogging since 2003 in various professional and personal gigs with multiple blogging platforms. I must have tried them all and found that blogsome (based on Wordpress) was (is still) very handsome. Total control over the code and style sheet, but very few plug-ins to work with, since I’m not a programmer per se.

Hence came Wordpress itself, the dotcom version that I still use for some other personal stuff, as well as some projects with clients, klogs, etc. Great features, simplicity, more than 60 themes to choose from. But again, the plug-ins issue.

Hence come my actual interrogation. These days, I feel the urge to blog again. I use richardgauthier.blogsome.com as my online resume (in French), but for the rest, my heart is in a swing mood, between two choices : Wordpress or Posterous? I wonder if I really need those pesky plug-ins. For my clients, allright. But for myself?

This site is maybe an answer.

I guess I will find it out pretty soon.

J’écrivais ce billet dans un espace Posterous que je venas alors de créer, The Richard Gauthier StreamLab. Or, la réponse ne fut pas longue à venir.

Si Posterous vient tout-emballé (built-in) avec les outils de connexion intégrés Twitter et Facebook Connect (on peut y commenter des billets avec notre identité Twitter ou Facebook), ce n’est pas un outil de gestion des connaissances comme Wordpress qui va tellement au-delà d’une simple plateforme de diffusion.

Bref, j’ai eu ma réponse.

I discovered a few days ago that following some Twitter accounts is much more interesting with Google Reader (via the rss feed), than with any Twitter clients. It is especially true with Twitter accounts that are less conversational and more link-oriented.

By doing so, I find it more easy to retrieve valuable info and it is less time-consuming, because I don’t need to care about missing anything.

A simple and good definition of the role of a Social Media advisor from @chrisbrogan:

show companies how to be human at a distance + how they can improve their business objectives
