On Twitter, Customer Service, and Scalability

Talking about social media and customer service is probably more Shashi’s realm than mine (he’s a real customer service mustang, having come up through the frontline ranks), but I’ll poach on his turf, anyway.

Interview With Jill Foster: Doing an Interview for Your Blog

Doing interviews in your blog is, by all accounts, a good way to get content. You can use interviews to bring in alternate voices; do something new, interesting, and even useful; and maybe get some attention (and even a little link love) from people more prominent than yourself.
I myself haven’t really ever blogged an interview [...]
