I thought I knew a lot about social networking - and then I read Get Connected and realized how much I didn't know. The book is easy to read and makes social networking easy to understand. Each of the top social networking sites, and why you would use them, is outlined, so you can pick and choose which to check out. Plus, there are many tips & tricks for creating your own social media strategies - including time management. Thanks Starr and Chadd!

Whoowee. I was struggling to understand RSS feeds and blogging and linking my twitter to my linkedin and even what sites to join ... Starr Hall and Chad Rosenberg got me on the right track with their concise breakdown of the social networking sites, social media tools, and even the hows and whys of branding. What I liked best is that they didn't add a lot of fluff. What I like least is that it isn't available on the kindle (yet?).

I highly recommend Get Connected to any other small business owner trying to figure out how to leverage the web to improve their bottom line and customer service, and where to focus their efforts for maximum return.

Thanks for the help!
