Social Influence Measurement – Tools, Resources & Commentary

December 7, 2010 By BJ Cook,

Wow the last hour has been a whirlwind of blog posts, articles, tweets, links and comments covering this whole market of "social media influence." Based on who you are that could mean different things. If you're a marketer, you're thinking "sure that's important to the work I do." If you're a blogger, you're thinking "that's what my world is becoming defined by with all these campaigns, deals and events I keep getting invited to." If you're one of the following social influence tools, you're thinking "I hope these people keep writing reviews and help us continue to shape our product." This post is meant to be something organic, never-ending and hopefully a great resource for those of you just entering into the field of "social media influence or social influence measurement." What I love most about the following resource, is that beyond the initial content written; there is some wonderful commentary from people around the industry sharing their perspective and truly giving these tools free insights, marketing and in some cases not-so-great reviews. Please feel free to add your comment with any tools, blog posts, tweets, articles, polls or white papers I may have missed and I'll be sure to update this post.
