		<description><![CDATA[Dear Students, Thanks for giving me the chance to speek with you and geek out a bit at the PRSSA Social Media Summit.  You are an amazing crowd, and each of you posses the talent to drive change in your careers. Never forget this &#8212; YOU are the communicators of tomorrow. That&#8217;s important. YOU are responsible for discovering how our industry leverages will apply these new tools. You may even someday think up and build new tools of your own. Be patient &#8230; but always be hustling. It will be you who will lead us to the plateau of productivity for all platforms that enable disruptive trends to take hold. As future communicators, PR professionals and content creators, always make sure to be good stewards of the power you wield.  Left in the wrong hands, mass communication can also lead to great sorrow. I hope you will use this deck and the links below it to learn more about these trends and and tools, finding new and exciting applications of the technology. Do this for yourself and your personal brand, your eventual clients and in the communities in which you will someday live. Trust me when I tell you that putting the hours and sweat into staying ahead of the curve will serve you well. Good luck. God speed. And, thank you for you attention. @nateriggs 12 Disruptive Technology Trends Changing Communications If you&#8217;d like to see more presentations, visit my SlideShare profile.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been an Android for about two years now and am a self-admitted iOS convert.  AT&#38;T really killed my taste for Apple&#8217;s mobile devices back in the days where we didn&#8217;t have a choice as to the mobile network provider. That&#8217;s changed now, but I never went back to iOS. Take that for what it&#8217;s worth as a lesson in customer service and brand advocacy. There&#8217;s literally millions of apps to choose from out there and I think people do tend to get a bit &#8220;app crazy&#8221; these days, always chasing after the latest and greatest to one up their geek friends. In stead of looking at the coolest apps I&#8217;ve seen (and rarely ever use), here&#8217;s a list of my top 8 apps of 2011. To make my list, I needed to use each of these apps at least a few times per week, if not at least once per day.  If you&#8217;re an Android user, give them a look. 1.  Expensify Get it at: Download Expensify Mobile Short description: Great little application that allows me to easily track all of my expenses for personal accounts as well as multiple business accounts. Likes: The app has been designed with a very intuitive interface. It&#8217;s fast, dependable and the photo to receipt feature includes scanning so you don&#8217;t have any manual data entry when you&#8217;re back at your laptop.  You an also capture business cards and track milage from the home screen. Dislikes: The app has a conveniently built in referral platform with incentives. While it&#8217;s a pretty brilliant viral marketing mechanism, overusing it might be seen as &#8216;spammy&#8217; and annoy your new contacts. Careful with this one. Usage pattern: Multiple times daily. How it helps: Saves me countless hours of manual data entry that I would probably forget to do anyway. I believe that Expensify might [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I had the privilege of attending the MediaPost Search Insider Summit last week in Deer Valley Utah. Aside from beautiful landscapes, great skiing and snowboarding and incredible accommodations at Starwood&#8217;s prized St. Regis Deer Valley, the folks attending brought with them content that was indeed forward thinking. I have to say &#8212; I speak at a decent amount of conferences, but the MediaPost SIS event is definitely in my top 5 in terms of value added. I walked away with more than 6 pages of notes (typed neatly in Evernote on my Samsung Galaxy Tab), met a ton of interesting and down to earth people who also happen to the cool kids that are driving the search industry to new levels of sophistication. While there was a ton of great presentations and panels, the talk from Google&#8217;s Michael Slinger stands out as one of the most impactful take-aways. Here&#8217;s the short hand recap. Consider what Michael is heading toward and share it with your colleagues&#8230; The Death of Phone Booths Michael opened up by sharing two short stories, one about his kids and one about the children of some family friends.  In the first, he mentioned that his kids, both under 10 years old upon seeing an old telephone booth had no idea what it actually was. As we sat around the table, chuckling at the innocence of young children, each of us looked down to see the phone icon on our andriod and iPhone devices.  Look down at yours right now.  Notice something?  When was the last time you&#8217;ve seen a silhouette of a phone like that?!? My guess is that it&#8217;s been years since you&#8217;ve even touched an old rotary handset, right? The second story was even more entertaining.  Michael shared that he had heard from a friend that their kids, much younger in age, had actuallt approached the LCD television in their [...]]]></description>
