A Social Media Job is Born: Community Manager
•Community managers are always plugged in; no set time for “doing social media”
•Work IS Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, YouTube - and it is to be taken seriously (sometimes)
•They are “digital natives”
•They are “plorkers” (via @jfwp)
Community Managers must have:
•Big Eyes: watch trends and behavior
•Big Ears: listen to what constituents are saying to one another
•Little Mouth: keep quiet, resist the urge to be defensive
