Your Personal Brand and Social Media

Just back from New Orleans and the SLA Annual Conference. It was a terrific conference in a variety of ways - more to come! - but I wanted to get this information out sooner rather than later. 

You can view my share of the presentation with the wonderful Kim Dority at SlideShare.

A few questions that came up:

• What social networks are in use in non-US countries?
  

TechCrunch: A Map of (Social) Network Dominance 

Global Web Index - data

This is an interactive map that shows not specific social tool usage, but usage by country and by type of usage (photo or video sharing, networking, blogs, microblogs).

• Where can I find lists of blogs by librarians and info pros?

100 Best Blogs for Librarians of the Future (Learn-gasm)

Broken out by area of focus.

• Twitter directories mentioned:

WeFollow
Twellow

You can search for expertise, information, industries, location by tags. List yourself, search for others.
