Facebook Personal Profile Applications

I have been thinking for sometime now on a blog entry for social media. I really want everyone to maximize social media which means a lot of integrate with extra applications in both a social media platform and web site. The way I see a personal profile design is a custom badge, applications that have a rating of 3 starts or more and blog feed which are easy to integrate using either application or RSS feeds.

The following are a group of Facebook Applications that I use which are free and easy use.

For blogging WordPress, becuase its easy to work with and links great with Linkedin. Plus, its a rss feed which is easy to integrate into web. Just copy and page the web address.
To connect your feed to facebook I like Networked blogs. Adding Social Media Optimization (SMO) is needed during set up. http://www.facebook.com/networkedblogs

For twitter I use
Kipdola Twitter Sync

http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=177319725983

The reason is it works great plus

* convert your @twitter tags into Facebook notification tags (No more strange @nicknames in your Facebook status updates!)
* Filter unwanted tweets (selective)

SlideShare.net works with Linkedin and Facebook very will. this application really needs is SMO. This applications is great for  PDFs, Docs, Flyers, I use SlideShare what is syncs to personal and Like pages.
My Linkedin Profile which displays your linkedin profile on facebook tabs

http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=6394109615&ref=search

For rss feeds I like using social rss http://apps.facebook.com/social-rss/tabsettings.php?ref=ts

I really like using RSS feeds in Facebook Like pages. You can see what I do with it on www.facebook.com/myrapaudition
but isn’t sync with my personal profile.

For more ideas check out my profile at www.facebook.com/dbpeacock

Linkedin has applications as well, however I only use two applications wordpress and slideshare. You can view mine at www.linkedin.com/in/derekpeacock

Sharing options used for Youtube and twitter easy if you just read the information on the site. Most anyone can do it.

If you have any other comments and suggestions to add please add them. Looking forward to seeing a lot of porfiles.

Meet The YouTube Stars Making $100,000 Plus Per Year

Provided by the Business Insider, August 19, 2010:

There are 10 independent YouTube stars who made over $100,000 in the past year, according to a study done by analytics and advertising company TubeMogul.

From July 2009 to July 2010, TubeMogul used their viewership data to estimate the annual income for independent YouTube partners, which they define as anyone who is not part of a media company or brand.

Here’s how they got their estimates:

* Revenue only comes from banner ads served near content (we ignored pre-roll or overlay since we can’t easily isolate by publisher).
* Since YouTube banner ads have a two-second load delay, we estimate 2.59% of viewers click away before an ad loads based on separate research.
* Ads were served near all videos that loaded (since there are partners, this is generally true).
* CPM for the banner ads was $1.50 (Google auctions a lot of this inventory off; we rounded this 2009 estimate down to be conservative).
* YouTube is splitting ad revenue with partners 50-50.

Basically, take their views from the past year, assume a few don’t stick around long enough for an ad to load, divide that number by 1,000, multiply by $1.50 and divide that number in half.

Conservative estimates? Sure. But with that math, you get a pretty decent estimate of how much these YouTube celebrities are making from just the banner ads on their channel. So, without further ado, here are the highest earning YouTube stars!

1. Shane Dawson – $315,000

Shane Dawson is so popular that he is three different YouTube channels. His most popular channel consists of his comedy skits and music video parodies.
