Presented at the Dallas Digital Summit Workshop December 10, 2014 What exactly is social analytics? Why don't brands "get it?" What makes it so hard to understand this data? This presentation takes us on a tour of the most common issues in social analytics reporting, defines the broken landscape of social data and how this makes the job hard, and offers some key points for making an impact with your reporting when you get back to your desk.

<title>Are You Prepared for the Google Reader Shutdown?</title>
<content>As has been widely reported, Google Reader is shutting down July 1, 2013. Now, in typical Google fashion, no one really knows what will actually happen on the that date, but as I it see you have about three choices if you are to continue to consistently consume blog content
Move to a new RSS reader
There are actually many options for moving your existing RSS subscriptions to another setup that can pretty much make the change a non event and may even turn up some enhancements.
