- Intel was an early adopter on Twitter.
- Intel’s Social Media Center of Excellence filters Twitter chatter and dispatches tweets to the right experts within Intel.
- Following the viral success of the Ajay Bhatt (co-inventer of the USB) “Our rockstars aren’t like your rockstars” YouTube video, Intel made up some special Ajay Bhatt T-shirts to give away in a contest. And this helped Intel’s Twitter account grow.
Finally, Michael recommends you spend time to listen to the social web, take it slow to see where your audience is, but you will need a strategic plan at some point.
