The secrets to The Onion’s social media success

Posted: 18 Aug 2011 10:24 AM PDT

The Onion is doing a fantastic job when it comes to social media and Twitter in particular — in many cases rising ABOVE real news outlets on Twitter searches even when it comes to real news. What are its secrets? “During the State of the Union address in January,” Mashable points out, “the first Twitter search results for #SOU were not tweets from likely suspects such as CNN, The New York Times, Time or The Economist. Rather, they came from satirical news source The Onion.”

The Onion live tweets events like the Oscars and the Super Bowl from its various accounts. Sometimes it queues up jokes in advance, but for unpredictable events like the Super Bowl it has writers contribute in real time. It also uses the platform to report on developing stories, both made up or real. In May, when The Onionreported that a 500-foot-tall Osama bin Laden had emerged from the sea, for instance, the Twitter account kept the public updated with Twitpics and quotes from government officials exclusive to Twitter. The method is not unlike that of a legitimate news outlet's Twitter stream during breaking news situations…. The Onion's most recent Twitter-generated content certainly does fit in with that of major real news outlets. Just as broadcasters are increasingly using Twitter to highlight reactions to news, The Onion has started incorporating Tweets into its video newscast, The Onion Review. "We really try to engage our users even though The Onion doesn't really care about our users — that's kind of our line," Kirsch says.

Great job: Washington Post Seeks Social Media Editor

Posted: 16 Aug 2011 08:53 AM PDT

The Washington Post is looking for a social media editor, who will be part of The Washington Post’s engagement team and will work closely with bloggers, reporters and editors across the newsroom.

This person should be able to spot the conversation starter in every story and help build as well as lead a conversation around our journalism when needed, with a credible, conversational blogging voice. This person should also understand how to leverage social networks to enhance the reporting process.

A steward of the brand, the social media producer helps grow our audience across social networks, connecting readers with our content and engaging them in conversation. This position requires extensive experience using analytics to track audience growth and engagement across social platforms. We will also rely on this person to help manage relationships with major social media companies. The ability to work independently, effectively and with others inside and outside the company is a must. The best candidates will know how to take initiative and oversee projects that are both immediate and long-term.

Our social media team is an energetic and forward-thinking team that encourages experimentation. We integrate cutting-edge social functionality, often in partnership with companies like Facebook and Twitter, on platforms including browser clients, iOS and Android. Our work is challenging and rewarding, and our success is measured by the millions of readers we serve. The social media editor will have the opportunity to creatively brainstorm all types of newsroom projects, from daily stories to long-term enterprise packages.

MTV News report on the internet from 1995

Posted: 15 Aug 2011 06:38 AM PDT

Fantastic video that will both make you feel nostalgic, give you a few chuckles and remind you that, after all these years, the core uses of the Internet really haven’t changed that much: “Despite all the futuristic technobabble you hear about the Internet, however, most cybervoyagers log on to it in search of nothing more complicated that other people to talk to and to email.”

Main Street businesses embrace mobile marketing

Posted: 11 Aug 2011 11:58 AM PDT

The amount local advertisers spendon mobile advertising and promotions is forecasted to double every year for the next five years, according to a new report for Borrell Associates. If that occurs, local mobile marketing expenditures would surpass $18 billion for advertising and $4 billion for promotions – more than Main Street businesses currently spend on traditional web-based advertising today.

Local advertisers are on track to spend nearly $800 million this year on mobile advertising and more than $400 million on mobile promotions, including contests, coupons and deals.
