You can now access a mobile version of [justinrlevy.com] when you use a touch mobile device such as an iPhone or
Droid. Previously this blog had utilized the Carrington theme to create a mobile version of the site. But, I just switched over to WPtouch to create a fuller experience. Carrington had many of the features that WPtouch has but I like the look, feel and design of WPtouch a little more. It displays photos, Tweetmeme and Disqus tightly as well as the basic features of the site including tabs, tags, categories, date/time, and more.

Prior to social networks like Twitter, Facebook, and FriendFeed, if you wanted to discuss a blog post, you would normally do it in the comments section of the blog post. Of course, you could discuss on the phone, in person or via email but on the web it would be discussed on that specific blog post. That still continues but what has changed is that many conversations are taking place around the post as well on these various networks. For example, someone could read this post in Google Reader, share it causing it to post to Facebook and FriendFeed. Then on both of those networks, separate conversations could take place that I would never be aware of. Well, that is changing and today Mashable announced the implementation of social media comments.

This was a busy week for me starting off with a speaking engagement for an event that my restaurant sponsored as well as attending the WBJ Sales Summit. I'm still trying to catch up and over the next few days I should have a few new and exciting posts ready!

The HubSpot team just posted a video of a presentation that they recently gave. The topic of discussion was about developing an inbound marketing strategy that incorporates SEO, blogging and social media to drive results. They did an excellent job describing the synergy that is formed when you utilize all 3 in your marketing strategy. Best of all is that their suggestions are completely free and just takes an investment of your time. Granted, you could get into PPC campaigns, purchasing of themes for your blog, etc but at the basic level, which will produce great results, this strategy is free and ready to be implemented.

Starting today this will be a weekly roundup of everything I found interesting from the slice of the blogosphere reserved for the world of PR, marketing and social media. Besides popular PR, marketing and social media posts, I will also post what book(s) I'm currently reading as well as any other non-PR related interesting posts, tweets or articles. Most of these will be new posts but some may be some older but still relevant.
