Family Guy does the same with three iPhone apps, that give more interactive and exclusive content and games for iPhone owners that are fans of the show. Of course, the trick is to make it relevant to the buying audience, and not be there just for the sake of it.

Hi,
Yes I totally agree.Doing extra work really helps.If you do extra work a day,on second day it will reduce your burden.Again if some day you have to go somewhere you can go without stress.Doing extra or background work allows you to get your foot in the door at the unions, which means that getting an agent becomes a possiblity.

Chris – I actually gave a similar gift to a colleague for Christmas. Her husband runs a local restaurant. I set up a Google account and loaded it with a whole bunch of RSS feeds of Google Alerts and Twitter, essentially creating a social media listening post for their establishment. They were blown away by the fact that people were already talking about their restaurant in online social spaces and linking to their website/menu. Now they want to look at how they can actually participate in these spaces. I am very excited to help them do so.

Its very true that the word "extra" may in fact speak to that. If we expected that we would have to work very hard, think of little details, network, stay connect, etc. we might not need to think of this as extra.There are many instances evolved in the terms of the being extra work.

It's great to see both Twitter and Tweetdeck entering the “mainstream” in interesting ways.

If you wanted to do this on a more personal basis — getting real-time feeds for your own contacts, you could try Gist. (caveat — I am the founder). With Gist users can connect their contact lists and the system finds relevant feeds including news, blogs, tweets…And as you manage the people, and companies, you can share with other users so it is a pretty nice small business/workgroup solution where the early adopters can help the others on the team learn “more about who they know”.

Let us know if you think it is helpful in this context

Katie,

You could try http://www.gist.com. It is more of a personal feed source that includes news, blogs, tweets...but you could set up each persons account pretty easily with "shared contacts". In this way, you could build out a contact with all the relevant feeds and then just share the whole "entitiy" to the other users, then they get all the benefit of your work.

Let us know if we can make Gist work for you.

Chris, I love the marketing concept of a “pre-loaded” tweetdeck for your brand or event. But, excuse my lack of technique…but how do you do it so your search term shows up when the customer/client opens it up? Thanks for any clarity or direction…

This is brilliant. Best Buy is selling CD's with an app for the iphone for Tweetdeck, if I am reading and understanding this correctly. That part alone is not super brilliant but the fact that they sell iphones is where the brillance comes in. They are putting another product that they sell into your mind in such a non salesy way. Now people who are listening to the Eminem CD may not need an iphone (thinking they prob have one) but the people buying it as a gift may need one. The tweetdeck app part talks to the folks who already have an iphone.

Well done Best Buy.
