The 10 Commandments of Social Media via @mashable My Interpretation

So here are Mashable’s ten commandments of social media:

  • Thou Shalt Blog (like crazy).
  • Thou Shalt Create Profiles (everywhere).
  • Thou Shalt Upload Photos (lots of them).
  • Thou Shalt Upload Videos (all you can find).
  • Thou Shalt Podcast (often).
  • Thou Shalt Set Alerts (immediately).
  • Thou Shalt Comment (on a multitude of blogs).
  • Thou Shalt Get Connected (with everyone).
  • Thou Shalt Explore Social Media (30 minutes per week).
  • Thou Shalt Be Creative (go forth and create creatively)!

    Here is my translation of the above:

    1. Be crazy and share the insanity with the web. :)

    2. Go forth and multiple your persona to the places that matter then have them wither on the vine because you know they will.

    3. Here is the percentage of photos that will go up: 20% random, 40% relevant to whatever, 15% Inappropriate aka being drunk & 15% WTF.

    4. Take the 4th commandment and multiple that by 5.

    5. More like listen to a few podcasts then drift away only coming back once a month or so to check then tuning them out.

    6. You set your alerts realize there is to much crap then tune 90% of them out.

    7. It is all about the snark, the flame wars and fanboys, this is where you rile up the hornet’s nest.

    8. Or in other words find people to ease drop on and harass.

    9. You are an only crack whore, it is your drug of choice and you know it.

    10. Find crazy aka creative ways to spread the word and get people interested and the more nuts the better because otherwise it is just boring.

    Very cool I love #8 that every post makes an impression where most likely it will just get lost in the noise. But that is something we all experience daily. Sigh but still I love this kind of thing.

    Customized Videos by the @oldspice Dude = Awesome

    So what do you do to make a great act better have it said by a half naked dude with some great syntax. Well the Old Spice dude is putting out customized video intros for the internet folks. I think this will drive bloggers to the site to take the gamble to see if they can get a nice vid done by him. Good luck to all and go go go!
