Ed Dale The Challenge – Day 1
Posted by: | CommentsThe early days of the challenge are about getting settled in and finding your way around the information and tools. So let’s jump straight in.
Day 1 – Action For The Day
Go to Ustream and sign up, connect it to your Facebook and Twitter accounts and spend some time getting familiar with the interface.
Should have taken about 15 minutes at most but I managed to lose an hour and a half faffing about trying to decide if I wanted “work” stuff on my Facebook profile and how it worked with Twitter etc. I found some instructions, in the Challenge forum, on how to stop work stuff showing up on your Facebook wall, but as I don’t use my FB account much I decided not to connect to it at all.
The reason you want to keep work stuff separate from your personal FB account is that, anything posted will show up on your friend’s walls and, I hazard a guess, that most of your friends and family are not interested in internet marketing info and pitches.
Later in the challenge there will be some instruction on using Facebook pages and at that point I will start addressing the business side of things at FB.
With regard Twitter, I connected my account with Ustream but have no idea what the result of that will be. I’m not so concerned about this as I already post work stuff there.
