			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><span class="drop_cap">Y</span>ou might be one of the lucky ones finding yourself logged into your brand new Google Wave account? Then you, just like me, might also think something must be wrong with you since you&#8217;re not getting what all the hype is about.</p>
<p>Google themselves has launched a couple of <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_UyVmITiYQ">videos showcasing</a> the possibilities with the Wave but now when it&#8217;s for real the tool just doesn&#8217;t live up to the promises. The <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDu2A3WzQpo">video from Epipheo Studio</a> might be a better alternative but it&#8217;s still just a short video raising expectations without really teaching you how to do stuff for real.</p>
<h3>Don&#8217;t worry! Here comes The Complete Guide to Google Wave!</h3>
<p><img class="alignnone frame size-full wp-image-3628" title="complete_guide_to_google_wave" src="http://www.ronnestam.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/complete_guide_to_google_wave.jpg" alt="complete_guide_to_google_wave" width="480" height="388" /></p>
<p>Gina Trapani and Adam Pash has launched <a href="http://completewaveguide.com/guide/The_Complete_Guide_to_Google_Wave" target="_blank">The Complete Guide to Google Wave for free online</a>. And soon you&#8217;ll be able to buy the PDF or a Book. I know I&#8217;ll mail one of those to my Kindle for sure.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://completewaveguide.com/guide/The_Complete_Guide_to_Google_Wave" target="_blank">website</a> features 10 sections and I especially like that they&#8217;ve also outlines what the Wave cannot do. This is according to my experience one of the main problems with many guides &#8211; you&#8217;re not getting the negatives. And usually when you don&#8217;t find the instructions to how something is done it&#8217;s due to the fact that it cannot be done, only no one tells you that so you keep searching for ever.</p>
<p><em>Lot&#8217;s of techie posts lately by the way. Soon I&#8217;ll switch to love and emotions!</em></p>

<p>Sit tight and watch the thing start counting. After a couple of seconds you&#8217;ll grasp the power of social media. But also note the stats that tells you how many SMS&#8217;s that has been sent globally. People pay for that stuff!!!<br />

<p><span class="drop_cap">E</span>veryone are going bananas over Twitter and the marketing potential with micro blogging. People who are into it are totally sold. People who are not doesn&#8217;t understand jack shit.</p>
<p>The thing with Twitter is that you&#8217;ve gotta get yourself in there, start listening to the twitter and slowly adapt to a strange new culture. Once you&#8217;ve done that you can start using it for more intelligent things.</p>
<p>My personal top tip about Twitter is; think really carefully what you want to achieve with it. For me Twitter is not about twittering every 2 minutes but instead listening to people that i respect. Personally I&#8217;ve decided it&#8217;s my business platform, not personal funfair. At least so far. It&#8217;s not unthinkable that I might end up having different account in the future.</p>
<p><span class="drop_cap">T</span>his morning I got a tip from <a href="http://www.onlinebestcolleges.com/blog/2009/100-twitter-tools-to-help-you-achieve-all-your-goals/" target="_blank">OnlineBestCollages</a>. They have gathered a list of 100 Twitter tools. The list is divided into the following categories: Twitter Analysis, Information Gathering, Network Building &amp; Management, Twitter Management, Sharing Tools, Organization &amp; Productivity, Life Tools, Business &amp; Finance, Health and of course Blogging.</p>
<p><em>I&#8217;m aware</em> that they&#8217;ve created this list in order to drive traffic to their site, but hey, that&#8217;s a tip in itself. This is marketing of tomorrow. Give and you shall recieve. I&#8217;m giving back cause it&#8217;s a great resource.</p>
<p>Go on and <a href="http://www.onlinebestcolleges.com/blog/2009/100-twitter-tools-to-help-you-achieve-all-your-goals/" target="_blank">rate yourselves up</a> in Twitter!</p>
