Luca Sartoni versus Irina Kremin. Both lovers of photography and very creative people. The idea came to Irina at our Enterprise Marketing 2.0 event today where they are both shooting photos of attendees and moments of the event.
Luca Sartoni, a noted and respected street photographer, has captured many precious moments from our previous events, like ES20 and this time Irina felt inspired to challenge Luca to create the “best shot’ from the EM20 event.
We leave the voting to you, our dear readers and attendees.
There are some statistics and reports in the press that tell us that more and more bloggers abandon their blogs.
Why is that?
Some of us decide that we weren’t bloggers after all and are instead using other social media platforms to ‘post’ and interact on. However blogs should still be “the homebase” where all social media directs to and micro-blogging works best in conjunction with longer and more thoughtful content.
Some of us ran out of topics. There are so many blogs online on various subjects and because the number of blogs has reached such a high level, it is getting harder to capture attention in the blogosphere and in turn enough comments.
Over the past few years we have seen some good and bad examples of blogging. Good – when they are written for the readers and they become a platform for discussions. Bad – when they are only created to manipulate web statistics.
Luca Sartoni, Teamleader Social Media and Internet Marketing for 123people, states: “Blogging is not dead, bad ideas are dead, good ideas are always working.”
Luca Sartoni is very experienced in blogging and videoblogging, he has presented at many events including LeWeb Ignite, Web 2.0 Expo, World Blogging Forum and other social media events. He will be hosting a brainstorming networking session at EM20 conference in Amsterdam on Blogging for B2C Success.
The point he stresses is that blogging is not just about blogging but about how to find a story inside of your company and tell those stories through different platforms.
Finding stories has always been the most important part of publishing information and if you would like to learn how to use the tools come and take part in Luca’s brainstorming session at EM20 conference in Amsterdam, on October 13
Steve Jobs – visionary, game changer, successful businessman who told us to “Think Different”.
He changed our lives, revolutionized personal computing and created products that we love. He will be dearly missed.
Here are our top 6 Steve Jobs business related quotes.
“It’s not the consumers’ job to know what they want.”
“The cure for Apple is not cost-cutting. The cure for Apple is to innovate its way out of its current predicament.”
“Innovation has nothing to do with how many R&D dollars you have. When Apple came up with the Mac, IBM was spending at least 100 times more on R&D. It’s not about money. It’s about the people you have, how you’re led, and how much you get it.”
“I’m convinced that about half of what separates the successful entrepreneurs from the non-successful ones is pure perseverance.”
“Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren’t used to an environment where excellence is expected.”
“I think we’re having fun. I think our customers really like our products. And we’re always trying to do better.”
Let us leave you with one of Steve’s best and most inspirational speeches – the Stanford Commencement Speech 2005.
How to Live before you Die:
It’s still hard to believe it that the world has lost one of his greatest visionaries, an innovator, an inspiration, a great human being.
President Obama issued an official statement on the White House blog:
“Michelle and I are saddened to learn of the passing of Steve Jobs. Steve was among the greatest of American innovators – brave enough to think differently, bold enough to believe he could change the world, and talented enough to do it.
By building one of the planet’s most successful companies from his garage, he exemplified the spirit of American ingenuity. By making computers personal and putting the internet in our pockets, he made the information revolution not only accessible, but intuitive and fun. And by turning his talents to storytelling, he has brought joy to millions of children and grownups alike. Steve was fond of saying that he lived every day like it was his last. Because he did, he transformed our lives, redefined entire industries, and achieved one of the rarest feats in human history: he changed the way each of us sees the world.
The world has lost a visionary. And there may be no greater tribute to Steve’s success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented. Michelle and I send our thoughts and prayers to Steve’s wife Laurene, his family, and all those who loved him.”
