As the noise gets louder with more and more social media services, content and participants, and noise, it’s important to continue to tune your instruments. Keep the tools in good working order, and keep them sharp and focused. Turn up the signal, decrease the noise.
He’s a great new way to keep your signal clear. Google Reader just expanded it’s Power Readers list to include journalists, techies, fashion critics, foodies, and more. Now you can follow what these Power Readers (Influencers) read, before they take fingers to keyboard.
Focus. Get Ahead. Stay strategic.
