The emerging landscape of social media brings with it exponential creative potential. Fred Cacazza has a wonderful blog, Social Media Landscape, that spells out what exactly is emerging in the field of social media. He created an easy-to-read graphic - the most comprehensive I have seen - that is understandable by people of all levels of tech savvy, or lack thereof. (A great marketing idea as well - he had so many hits on his blog that they literally had to shut it down for a while). A picture really is worth a thousand words (that's why I believe everyone should have only unlined notepads for all of their business notetaking and brainstorming - frees the mind to think "outside the lines"). Below the graphic is his list of what compiles the Social Media Landscape (there is more on his site). Visit his blog at http://socialmedialandscape.com/cms - a fantastic resource!
The Social Media Landscape consists of Publication tools, Sharing tools, Discussions tools, Micropublication tools, Social aggregation tools, Platforms for livecast hosting, Virtual worlds, Social gaming platforms and more. The above list is from Fred Cavazza's blog. He actually gives examples of all of these and so much more great information.
