An amazing list of suggested sites you could as part of your social networking strategy. Mainly US based and centric but they could still prove useful if, as with all social media, it is relevant to your business.

TalkTalk have launched a new media campaign. The campaign involves ex-pick pocketers going around London and putting money back into peoples pockets and bags.

I have referred to this as a campaign as that is effectively what it is. At first I wondered how putting £20.00 into a strangers pocket is going to gain any exposure, especially if they do not know.

But already social media sites like Twitter are buzzing with tweets and re-tweets about the stunt. I imagine it will not be long before we have FaceBook status updates "I just found £20.00 in my back pocket must have been TalkTalk"

This was probably the intended reaction TalkTalk have hoped for effectively paying individuals £20.00 to Talk about them.

What do you think about the stunt?
