Filed under: Social Media, Trends
I have collected some of the ideas that seem to be growing fast and make real business sense. Here we go in no particular order:
Some people have problems with opening the original Open Office presentation format when downloading from Slideshare. Here is the PowerPoint version of the presentation.
Great! Got featured on Slideshare:
Your presentation 22 Social Media Trends is currently being featured on the SlideShare homepage by our editorial team.
We thank you for this terrific presentation, that has been chosen from amongst the thousands that are uploaded to SlideShare everday. – the SlideShare team
Slideshare went down shortly after. Coincidence? Hmmm…

And here’s the list:
The fact that audience has the control starts to sink in. (Control is an illusion)- Social media will get real budgets. (Most of these budgets will be inhouse)
- Social media will be integrated to overall marketing activities.

Great post! Thanks for sharing. I’m a new reader and will begin to monitor your blog.
I think that we’ll see an increase of small businesses using social media as their main way to communicate with customers and propsects. Social Media has leveled the playing field for local businesses. With the right strategy, they can now compete with the big boys. Social media tools are free to use, it’s about knowing where your customers are on the web, building a profile on those sites, and beginning to strike up relevant conversations with them.
Thanks socialfactory. We try to keep putting out interesting stuff for our readers.

Adding something worthwhile to think about to your list.
Social media will be integrated with web analytics data, meaning that social media tracking and web analytics data can be measured by single tool instead of multiple tracking tools.
This will help marketers to calculate the ROI of social media and allows them to understand the big picture of their web presence more easily.
@Riku That would be a greate solution. What are Snoobi’s plans in this regard?
@Priit We’re having negotiations with a few instances which are offering social media tracking to integrate with Snoobi.
Other way is to do it ourselves of course.
Will keep you posted on this.

What is missing from your list of trends…
Social Media’s big hurdle… how to handle information overload!
Note: I thought the “22 Social Media Trends” slide presentation was great and tweeted the link from ByrnesConsultin.
Excellent presentation – great images, content and text handling. You should make an Animoto (go to animoto.com) version – put the slides in their generator , pick background music, and poof out comes a video with cool transitions and effects. Just a thought. You can even use my membership if you like! (seriously)
Thanks for you Comments Mike and Neal!
@Mike I think the overload will be handled somewhat by social filtering we will pay attention to only stuff from trusted sources socnet friend, subscriprions, etc. But you still may grab too much and overloaded (as you can eat or drink too much).
@Neal images are from sxc.hu a really great free source I just selected what seemed to fit the theme. And Yes, I would like to give animoto a try. I’ll email you.
@everybody thanks for showing such an interest in this presentation. Almost 15000 views on SlideShare
