Best of luck to you Amanda in the Social Media Awards, I hope you all win and it's the KLCKers night (just like a movie eating up all the awards at the Oscars!!). I think you all derserve a trophy to oogle at on the mantlepiece. Best of luck to you, I've said it to everyone else but as you were away not sure if I passed on best wishes to yourself.

Lovely post Amanda and it is great to have the 3 KLCK/Blog Awards organisers in the finals of the social media awards especially as we can't enter the blog awards!
I'm with you on the winning thing - would love to have that trophy for the mantelpiece but I'll be just as happy if one of the KLCKers win. It's going to be a very tense atmosphere next Thursday evening ;)

So true! In my online gardening circles I may only have met some of the people I tweet with etc once because we all live so far apart - from Donegal to Cork to Meath but (probably) as a result of the meet up where we can put real faces to names it's meant we're now much more supportive of each others efforts. From passing on talks (passed one over in Derry yesterday), physical work (worked with a landscaper I'd met through twitter), online business or mentoring the actual meet up has resulted in a much more supportive relationship. If only other people saw the effect and how social media opens up a whole new world of potential work and friendship perhaps they wouldn't be so dismissive of it. And yes, because we share what we do online, on the rare occasions we are able to meet up we know what we're all up to and have loads to gas about! :)

Great line up Amanda. I am a big fan of slideshare too and agree it's a terrific way to showcase your expertise.

Will do, great to know that.

Thanks Marian, Flickr is a great way to share images, you can embed them directly from there into your blog and choose your copyright options. Let me know how you get on.

The event planner cool tool is a great idea. I was concerned about Pinterest and as such haven't been posting as much as I like. I must set up a Flickr account and that solves that problem. So thanks

On the Organ Donation Registering idea on FB. A great idea as I'm very lucky to have receive a wonderful gift of an organ so really appreciate what this gift can bring to a person's life. Just so long as it doesn't turn into peer pressure for the people who really don't want to. It's always a personal choice and should remain that way. In saying that the more that do sign up the more people can be saved and live a far better life.

oh, I totally agree Amanda, social media is a great way to break the ice. I just posted about being at an event last weekend which didn't have a hashtag and I really missed it - partly because I'd become accustomed to getting to know people through the hashtag and then meeting up with those tweeters at coffee.
I find that I always have something in common with other tweeters too even if the only common ground is that we both enjoy social media :)

Re: Add Your Latest Blog Post To Your Email Signature With WiseStamp

You can also use Brandmymail ( www.brandmymail.com ) similar to wisestamp but with better control over email signature and overall template.

Nice examples http://pinterest.com/brandmyma...

Obviously the Champagne is long gone that's why I had to take a photo of the book :)

I have been delighted the last two weeks when a local garden centre (Arboretum Lifestyle & Garden) donated some trays of veg to a community garden I work with and then a heavy box arrived from The Secret Garden Centre in Cork full of potatoes and shallots which they asked me to share amongst my community garden(er)s. I'm grinning with delightedness at their generosity and yes, am busy telling all my gardeners about these two fab garden centres (though not quite champagne) :D

Re: Beat Facebookers Block with Post Planner (But I didn’t try here’s why)

Jamie Dolan — Fri, 27 Apr 2012 02:18:57 -0000

PostPlanner works well. I stopped using it when Timeline started and had no problem canceling. There were problems with sharing posts done via 3rd party apps like PostPlanner, but I am told they have all been resolved. I'm looking at starting to use it again. I was just digging around for something more advanced, maybe socialsprout that has CRM features built in. PostPlanner is hard to beat for the price. They are generally quick to respond to support requests.

Re: Add Google Maps To Your Facebook Page With ‘Google Map Tab’

Amanda Webb — Thu, 26 Apr 2012 02:43:35 -0000

I haven't come across anything. One solution would be to embed a number of Google maps and embed them on a 'static HTML' page

Re: Add your YouTube Videos To Facebook With YouTube For Pages

The first time I tried to add it (during the Timeline transition) I had an issue too. This time it worked first time. Have you tried it recently?

Hi!
I've tried this app many times and I never get to pass on from the first step. I've tried using different computers and browsers, but always the same problem. Do you have any idea why or is there another app I could try instead?
many thanks!
Claudia
