This is a great partnership announcement. Not that many people update LinkedIn on a regular basis. While there is the status update it is vastly underused.
This will allows you to make your LinkedIn profile more interactive and more prominent.
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?
This is a very interesting development. A huge corporate like Walmart is embracing twitter as a customer communication platform. But customers are greeted with 3,000+ words of terms and conditions. Even the twitter profiles link to the terms and "discussion policy"

It is fantastic to see large organisations using twitter. But are they really connecting themselves with their customers by taking this step or making themselves look even more like a corporate giant and bombarding us with a hefty set of terms and conditions?
