A great resource

All I know is just what I read in the newspaper. – Will Rogers

A few months ago, a new platform for sharing information on twitter and facebook came out in the form of paper.li.

Almost over night it seemed like everyone had their own newspaper. I looked at a couple of them but wasn’t terribly impressed.

But then my friend Ron Hudson wrote a blog called 50 Social Media Phenoms. This list includes some of the usual, big name, suspects but it also includes people like…me!

People that Ron has actually developed relationships with and considers friends appear on this list. I was completely humbled to be included with such an amazing group of people, many of whom I’ve also developed friendships with via various social media avenues.

But then, Mr. Hudson took his list one step further and created a paper.li called The SocialMediaPhenoms Daily.

This, I read.

Not only did Ron collect a nice list of knowledgeable folks, he combined them into a really great resource. There hasn’t been an issue yet that I have not clicked in to at least two of the articles it contains which is about my average for a print newspaper like The Tulsa World.

The information I find in Ron’s paper, however, is more up to the minute and useful than any I would find in a print newspaper.

I encourage you to give The SocialMediaPhenoms Daily a look. There’s a lot of terrific information to be had and you don’t even have to look hard to find it!
