Here’s a new promo from Generation Social: A Documentary Film about how our inherent social nature drives cultural change with some of the people who drive it. This fun new promo with footage from the edited film tells you Social Media is so much more than just people telling others what they are doing. It’s well…just watch the video.
The completed film airs on CBC Vancouver on August 18, 2012. Check your local listing for air time. For those not living in Canada, or don’t have access to the CBC, you can reserve a copy of the film with a $15 pledge at Kickstarter.
Because Generation Social is a Kickstart project, you can get additional perks if you pledge more than $15. For example, pledge $50 or more, and you’ll be listed in the film credits as a producer. Pledge $100 or more, and you’ll be invited to the Wrap Party. Andrew and his team put a lot of work into this film so any support you show them will be greatly appreciated.

One of the most common complaint (or excuse) I hear from potential new bloggers is they don’t know how to install WordPress. Terms like FTP and CPanel are like a foreign language and setting up a database might as well be setting up the space shuttle for a launch. Because of the technology barrier, many would-be bloggers never start their blogs...

Hey, John.
I will definitely have to check this out later today. Me, personally? I am more of a sharer when I actually have something to share. I know for a fact that social media is so much more than telling others what you are doing. Why? Because my wife is addicted to Facebook, and I am surrounded by women constantly, (my family). Thanks for giving me something interesting to check out when I am done working for the day. As always, quality content, thanks John.

I am more on the “sharer” side of social media, sometimes I even talk a little too much. BUT I like to mix it up, keep them on their toes. Some days I don’t say much at all because I don’t want to burn out my friends/followers. I think it’s all about balance and moderation. It’s just like being social in real life, people don’t really appreciate a CONSTANT talker. Lurking can be good sometimes to formulate your “next move” just like a game of chess ^_^
Why no Youtube embed, Vimeo is slow!
I just checked out this video its a great promo, keep on sharing this kind of amazing stuff. I agree with faisal vimeo is slow.
Well, I am both. But I tend to be on the ‘sharing’ side, as I openly post how at feel at times. I seldom lurk on social networking sites though. I think its just lain boring to do that.
