Read the new How to guides

The AmbITion project for those of you that don’t know was set up in the North West to find ways of educating arts organisations in using new tools and techniques to deal with the demand of the consumer to access arts organisations content. It has done this in a variety of ways and extremely successfully, in fact so successful have they been, that they became a England wide project and now the Scottish Arts Council have also asked them to work with their arts organizations.

One of AmbITon’s first seminars was at an event I organized in Preston in 2006, and through my day job I have been lucky to enough to work with the AmbITion team over the last four years.

Have a look at these brilliantly simple How to guides recently published by the AmbITion team.

New publications are online! Roger Tomlinson helps us think about how to Syndicate Data using RSS and XML and How To Implement Digital Projects and Develop Digital Policies; Adrian Slatcher considers How To Be accessible; CJ Lyon teaches us about how to collect and share User Generated Content on your website; Chi-chi Ekweozor teaches us how to fundraise online using social media and how to get started blogging; Pam Henderson makes some great suggestions for how to recruit staff for digital developments; and our content partners Own-IT’s latest IP Guide to the Digital/New Media Industries is also available.
Please download and share these resources: they really are fascinating, insightful, and brilliant!

Social Media Logos on Flickr – Photo Sharing!

OK,  so that is the title of the article, I did however, change my mind between drafting this 6 months ago (lie) and now.  I originally went in search of social media buttons – which  I found and drafted this article but then found a better source for them. (They appear below)

They shall be appearing in a sidebar near here soon – well as soon as i can decide which wordpress theme to go for, but in the mean time catch then on the main site page. www.defnetmedia.com in the friend us follow us module.  But for now here is a quick excerpt of what they look like (and they are free to download and keep). They did kind of show me that I am not as social media as i thought i was as I only use 12 out of a possible 17, but numbers 10 and 11 I only slightly use and there is no icons for web resources that I do use.

I was going to painstakingly cut out the template at he bottom in photoshop until found the beautiful buttons above.

Make the most of what you do

…  feed your blog to twitter

Have you ever sat there copying and pasting the url of your most recent blog post into twitter – I know I did until I found twitter feed.

This is a great tool for making the most of what might be disparate blogs and website feeds, that you know you readers/followers would be interested in. Twitterfeed will give you stats on exactly how many people have clicked your link to see your posts, so if anyone ever says what is the point in twitter you have an answer straight away.

I thought I would get more than 20 hits for a House fire but thems the breaks – You can of course convert those  clicks into sales if you are so inclined.
