Hmm do we think we could use FriendFeed for all kinds of topics with Blitz bods? Obviously some training would be required, but I think this has potential.
A server-side solution would be even better, and there may even be an mediawiki extension that does it. Searching for them seems to be quite tricky though... - ChrisSwan
I've had a friend feed account for about a month and tbh I've not found a use for it. All I use it for is to collate a group of my own feeds. - Lee Winder
I'm not convinced myself yet, but I have seen it being used very successfully by other groups. For example you could create a Blitz Animators room with a hanful of relevant feeds streaming in. People could then comment on particularly good feeds while also adding their own links which seems a bit better than the forums... - ChrisSwan
Having said all that I'm currently looking at the huge list of mediawiki extensions to see if there's anything like this that would plug into our wiki. If there is something it would be a better solution as it would all be held on our server. - ChrisSwan

The presentation in this is second to none. The game is limited though and the trial was enough for me - Lee Winder

I think it's pretty obvious what this is going to be like... Getting harder to find quality games on the X360 dashboard - Lee Winder

When starting a new company, is it better to have a twitter account based around your companies name ... or the CEO's name ... or both? Discuss here.
i am leaning towards the company's name but want to make sure I consider all options and thoughts. - Amani
Absolutely both. The company Twitter account can cover company related information, releases etc. where-as the CEO is a totally different entity, what he is dealing with, meeting people or trying to do. The CEO is not the company and it's good to see a human face alongside the corporate one. - Lee Winder
Thanks. Any preference on a first name only account or use first and last name? - Amani
Most people I've seen on Twitter who are related to a company or brand seem to have both names, but I guess it's down to who or what your personal brand is, rather than your corporate one. - Lee Winder
Seems obvious to me but with CEO turnaround being what it is, having it under the company name seems to ensure a better shelf life. - sean808080
I like the idea of the CEO's name. If they get fired, they change the account, but to be able to contact the CEO of a company over a faceless ad agency or brand manager? That's what makes Twitter so great. It's that personal leveler that you don't get too much elsewhere. - Brandon Mendelson
I would start with the company account and check if you have got the time and input to have an interesting second CEO account. - Dieter Schwarz
